The Get Fit Momma: Day 44 - Leave the grease out!

One of my goals with this journey is to learn to live in the light about what I eat and how I feel (emotionally and physically). On Friday I had both kids all day while the hubs was at work. What I learned is that I do not have a routine to stay home with my kids and therefore we were all off on our schedules and I became grumpy. Neither kid took an afternoon nap and I was stressed. Those nap times are my chance to have some mommy time. So I buckled up the kids and headed to the YMCA. I let them play in the kids room while I hit the gym for a little stress reliever. I just got Advocare's O2 Gold which is a supplement that helps your breathing during exercise like running. So I was pretty excited to try it out. People rave about being able to run 5K's better than ever with the O2 Gold and while I am a little ways away from being able to run 3 miles straight, I ran 3 minutes straight without wheezing and gasping for air. So that's a good sign. I had a great workout and the hubs met me at the Y to pick up the kids, so my day began to lift. The weekend was great until we got to the end...{insert confession here}. We decided that having a cheat night for dinner would be ok. Just one little cheat was all....So we ate pizza. And it was tasty. But not tasty enough to feel like junk the rest of the night as a reward. Lesson learned....You can't eat clean and then jump right into pizza. But I did get to go buy a pair of jeans 1 size down and they are already too big. I also bought 2 shirts that are Size L which I have not done in YEARS! Feeling confident that I will be able to fit into my old jeans that are another size down by the fall. I will also be able to wear a lot of my good jackets that were way too small for me last winter. I barely zipped up 90% of my jackets which is never fun and impossible to wear layers. This year, I will be able to wear layers and comfortably zip those babies up. Yee-Haw!
