Well the weekend is over and I survived all the temptations :) Saturday was weigh-in day and I was right where I thought I was...216 pounds. I was guessing when I started this blog but I was correct (at least it wasn't more than what I had thought!) We bought some girl scout cookies from one of my friend's little girls and I have to say that I have done pretty well, I haven't eaten a lot of them at all.
Sunday was my cousin's open house for Mary Kay products which she had lemonade and cookies at, I politely declined them and just stuck with water :) She also lives in up-town so parking can be a bear, I ended up having to walk a pretty good distance to get to her place, all while carrying Adalyn in her car seat. So that was 9 pounds of car seat plus 11 pounds of cuteness :) So, I got in a little bit of exercise just by walking to her place. I also received a book from a friend at church called "Working Out Sucks" so I am really looking forward to reading that. Tim and I are going to start P90X tonight so wish me luck! We are starting with just the stretching video but let me tell ya when I have tried to do it before with him I was a hurting unit by the time I was half way through the stretching :)
Speaking of working out...I have had a lot of offers from people to become a work out buddy with me at the gym and as much as I would love to do that, with 3 kiddos in daycare, funds are not available to get a membership at a gym :( I am little sad about that because I know that would really help me with working out because we do not have equipment at home but I am not going to let that stop me! I have work out videos that I can use. So, sorry to all of you that wanted me to join the gym with you but Thank You for asking!
Hoping the weather is nice out today since I am home with the kiddos so we can get out and take a walk! We have my parent's dog for the week so I know he would love to have a walk too! Have a great day everyone!
I great alternative to working out at the gym is to use Adalyn as a weight! When Ellie was that little I used to use her to do "bench presses". She would giggle and smile and I got a fairly decent work out. Now, at almost 2, she likes to "work out" with me. She mostly gets in my way but it is still a lot of fun! Plus, I still use her weight (25 lbs) to my advantage!
