Mamavation Monday #3

Well here we are, week 3 into my weight loss journey. So far so good. I have now lost a total of 9 pounds! Very exciting!

I would love to tell you what I ate this week, but yet again…life got in the way and I didn’t write it down like I should have.

Last week I had a sick kiddo. C-man was sick Thursday-Sunday with a super high fever. I took him to the doctor on Friday and all they told me was that it needed to run its course. Humph…I wish they could of told me that over the phone and saved me $25!

This week I got a call from M’s school saying she had a temp of 104! HOLY MOLY! I go pick her up and get her home and relaxed with motrin and a wet wash cloth on her head. We called and made her appt for Friday as well. We also made a appointment for Jake since he had a nasty cough and lots of drainage and Friday morning he woke up with a fever. *sigh* Guess what the pedi told me for Madison….guess! YEP! Let it runs it course! They did check her for strep and flu and both were negative. Jake has a cold so we are trying to get him better by thinning out the mucous and helping him get it out. Anyways, Madison had a fever Sunday morning but seems better now. Staying home from school Monday.

I also had a very bad week personally. I get down on myself when things are difficult for the family and I just really beat myself up over it. I need to learn to let go and realize I can not control everything.

As you can see, I have been very distracted and very busy. On top of everything else, I also have a cough and congestion. FABULOUS right?! Luckily I have pushed my way through and continued at least with my exercise. I am still doing the 30 day Challenge on the Wii Active, lots of walking, and the medball workout as well.

I am having issues with remembering my vitamins.

Who wants to be the person who kicks me in the rear to remind me?!
