Well, call me lazy, but even though I've been setting my alarm clock for 5am to wake up and do Insanity, I'm not being motivated enough to actually get up and workout. I just go to sleep so late {working on design stuff to catch up} and sometimes it's 2am before I get into bed. 5am seems like the only comfortable time to workout because the boys aren't awake yet and it's cool outside. I have been trying get a workout in while they are awake, but the baby makes it especially difficult due to him not liking to be in one spot for an extended amount of time. So, while I may have started a workout every day, I haven't gotten through one in the past week! So, I'm definitely not doing very well {in my opinion}.
I feel really bad because I should be motivated because not only do I want to look awesome and fit for my hubby in September when he comes home, I am going to Las Vegas in August and I have my best friend's wedding in October! I just wish these things could be motivation enough for me to be like, "Ok I'm going to bed!" at 9pm and then have myself easily up by 5am. But, the thought of my long work order list getting even more crazy than it already is cringes me, and my motivation to get things done on my list is clearly my strongest motivator right now. I want to only be working on my graphic design part-time, but with how many projects I have, and people needing them fairly quickly, I feel like I just need to work in every ounce of free time that I have. It's definitely struggling me.
On a good note, I think due to eating healthier this week, foods jammed packed with power foods such as black beans, sweet potatoes, avocado, lots of veggies and more vegetarian options, including almond milk, I have lost another pound! 203 makes me the lightest I've been since having Tanner<3 Only 3 more pounds and I'll be out of these miserable 200s!! 3 seems to be such a light number - I feel like I could workout for a day and loose that! Time to get re-situated and get motivated again. Encouragement is well... encouraged! Thanks everyone!
One day at a time...and celebrate the great choices you did make. Today is a new day and if you can incorporate one more little step towards a healthy and whole life, you'll eventually reach your goals.

I love you!
Great job, Jenny! I have been back on my "healthy eating" (won't call it a diet) as well and last week I lost 1.6 pounds! May not seem like a lot, but it's great to me. I am up to 16.6 pounds total! Just take it one day at a time.
