Okay I did it

Yesterday I worked on my Paparazzi business and was too sore from the day before to work out. After Tuesday work out I went out with my kids and walked around all night, hitting my target steps of 6000. I walked 2.66 miles that night so I am counting that as yesterday's work out. I'm not sure how to add that in minutes to my work out, so I only get myself 20 minutes for the 3 hours I was out with my kids walking around.

I did some abs today and damn those are a killer too! I am super sore. This old lady will be taking some Aleve today.  okay work out done, back to my full time Mommy job! I have dishes to wash, laundry to do and kids to play with!

Jell Legs

I forgot how much my legs hurt when doing squats. I officially have jello legs. I don't know if I will be able to go up and down my stairs today. But it's worth it! I am already feeling good about myself.

I did 12 minutes of the work out. It might not seem like a lot but I know if I push myself harder I won't be here on day 3!

Getting back into the swing of things 1 step at a time :)

if you put your mind to it you can accomplish anything - back to the future

Well like Doc is always saying "If you put your mind to it you can accomplish anything"

So here I am back to "accomplish". When I started this blog in 2011, I didn't even have my 2nd child. I have come a long way since then but I am still not where I think I should be.

I was challenged to work out this month.  I haven't worked out in a long time. I've gone walking but nothing that has made me want to blog again.

Yesterday I wrote my to do list for today and I put on it "work out". I wasn't sure how far I would get but I remembered how I couldn't even do jumping jacks when I started in 2011. That was more than 60lbs ago, almost 100 if you count me at my heaviest walking into the hospital to give birth.

I managed to do 10 minutes. Tomorrow I will go for 13 minutes. I am not going to push myself to the point where I don't want to continue. I want to continue!!!

 I can see how much weight I lost in my face. People who have just met me can't believe my photos from 2011, they say it doesn't look like me.I remember getting that photo taken in 2011. I was dressed up, my hair was done, make up on. I felt good. I felt fantastic in June at my cousin's birthday party. But I want to feel better! So I will keep pushing myself.

And I know I won't be happy until I am not carrying around this big stomach. Funny, it was my ass that used to bother me most. That's why I named this blog My Big Fat Ass. Now it's my stomach. And if that means I have to have a tummy tuck I will. But first I want to get off at least 60 more pounds.

My goals this month are to work out every day, that's it! I will weigh myself and I am focusing on getting off 10lbs at a time. Watch how you 10lbs, I'm coming after you.

See you tomorrow
