So I just have to tell you, I have THEE most supportive family ever when it comes to reaching my fitness goals. My husband is so amazing taking care of the kids every night so I can get my workouts in. He's my biggest cheerleader and is always telling me how great I'm doing. When I'm feeling frustrated he reminds me that this is a process and I'll get there to just keep getting it done. So I wear a polar watch that tracks my workouts, length of time, calories burned, heart rate, etc. My sweet boys know how I get excited to see the calories I burned during my workout and last night when I got home Kyler ran up to me and said, "Mommy how many did you get?!?" so I showed him and said, "Look mom hit 734!!!" and he gave me a high five and said "Great job mom!!! You're getting buff!" Then Kayden comes in and says "Next time you go in there flex your arm like this and kiss your muscle and say Ha Ha ladies check these bad boys out!" It is the best feeling knowing I have these 2 boys pumping me up everyday. Having a great support system in this fitness journey is the biggest help ever. Knowing that I'm making my boys and husband proud of me feels great. Ya know, if you had asked me 4 months ago I'd have just said I want to get skinny again. But today... no. I'm not doing this to get skinny. I'm doing this to get fit. I'm doing this so I can kiss my biceps and say, "Check these bad boys out." Hitting 734 calories last night was the best feeling ever. For the last week I've wanted to hit 700 so bad. I've been between 635-665 and to not only hit my goal, but pass it felt amazing. This is a slow process, it's a slow journey, but knowing I'm doing it the right way motivates me more and more everyday. I'm down 12 lbs and that's pretty damn good! You see those hot fit moms with 4 kids with incredible bodies and all the other moms hate them. Well I've decided... I can't wait to be hated ;)
