Dropped the ball...
If anyone can't tell...I kind of dropped the ball in the last few days with the accountability thread. I have come to the conclusion that:
1. As much as we are all still battling the little food demons, my bigger issue is exercise.
2. I have maintained my current weight (give or take a couple pounds up/down) with my current eating plan and honestly, very little exercise.
3. Consistency is my nemesis!
I had every intention of starting the Couch to 5 K plan on Sunday (my 2 year surgiversary) but well, life, as usual, got in the way. I think about it every day but can't get myself to just do it. I have a few excuses but they really aren't the issue just excuses is all.
My 4 YO was playing at McD's and a bigger kid knocked him over (they were on the floor not even in those tubey things) and he cried and cried. That isn't like him, he usually cries for a minute or two, then gets up and moves on. After fussing for 45 minutes, going home, laying on the couch, favoring his other arm, I finally decide it is time for a visit to the ER. The result: a broken clavicle.
Not much they can do for it. Tylonol and motrin and keep him from using that arm/shoulder for a few weeks (he is doing that on his own without prompting from me). But, bed time has become a battle, cause he hurts and doesn't want to lay on it, wants to lay in my bed, etc, etc. So, my once free evenings to do as I please (whether I choose exercise or TV) have turned into nursing the 4 YO's boo-boo and psyche.
I could wake up earlier in the AM. But...well, I am not a morning person. and, if the babe is in my bed, out goes the treadmill idea for fear of waking him up with that noise.
Sorry, for the vent. I so need Jillian to move into my house and kick my arse into gear!

SORRY TO HEAR THAT YOU HAVE BEEN HAVING A ROUGH TIME. I'VE ONLY BEEN TO THE GYM ONE TIME IN A WEEK. I DO GOOD FOR A WHILE THEN BACK TO NOTHING, JUST CAN NOT KEEP UP THE THINGS I KNOW I NEED TO.
I WILL KEEP YOUR BABY IN MY PRAYERS THAT HIS LITTLE ARM HEALS UP REAL SOON.

GO COLTS!!!!
Oh, I feel so sorry for your 4-yr old's booboo. OW!!! Hope it will heal quickly for him so you can get to your planned exercise.
Nothing so exciting here for my excuse...just regular life in retail land being crazy this time of year. Trying to do it all for everybody and be it all for everybody is really exhausting and I haven't had time for the mb, I'm so sorry.
Hope that about the time you are ready to battle your exercise demon I will be able to join you. Maybe all the January diet/exercise hype in the media will help get the rest of us going too.
