Let me explain.......
This morning I had my therapy scheduled.....so Hubby & I set the alarm to sleep in.....mine was set for a little after 7 (weird I know, but that's just how I roll....I can't just set it for a 'normal' time....don't know why) & Hubby said he was turning off his alarms.
SOOO....Hubby's imagine MY surprize when Hubby's alarm went off this morning!!! He rolled over and turnded it off.....I was thinking that he must have set his for about 7 also.....okay so I lay there thinking that mine must being going off in a few mins then since I knew mine was set for 7:04 (yes, I know this is strange, as I already mentioned above).....I lay there for a while thinking about how I was awake and that I didn't think it was 7 yet, and what I'd like to do if it was actually 6 like I thought it was because that's what time Hubby's alarm is supposed to be set for.....hmmmmm.....maybe I should get up and do the 30Day Shred.....I'm actually awake.....I slept okay.....I don't have anything to do for the next hour.....I need to get on a workout outfit.....weigh myself (LOVE those morning weigh-ins!).....take my measurements......and gets those Day1 picutures......now those pictures are gonna be the tricky part. See our #3 little boy tends to crawl into bed with us sometimes and usually when I'm really tired I kick him onto the couch in our room.....BUT....since I was cleaning our room yesterday and Hubby didn't get to all of his clothes they ended up on the couch and so #3 was actually in bed with Hubby.....yupp, I said it....lame huh....This doesn't happen too often, but it happened to happen last night. So......I trucked it downstairs to figure out where to take my picutres. I finally figured it all out and then my batteries started to DIE and it was making it all difficult!!!! AAAHHHHH........so yah longer story some what shorter.....lol.....I ended up not having time to workout this morning.....BUT I did get all my pictures taken, & my measurments taken and my weight....so now I am hoping that I can get up bright & early in the morning and start my loverly workout! :-D
Wish me skinny! haha Just joking!
Wish me good sleep though so I can get up in the morning! :-D

{SWEETS...from my Sweet...}
Why is it that when My Sweet is being sweet he can be SOO sweet & yet be not sweet at the same time?! lol
My Hunny picked up some things for me at the store...."because I was thinking of you"......isn't that the sweetest?! :-D So of course he knows that not only have I been trying this last year to loose weight, but that these past few months I've been having a hard time with this.....so what does My Sweet bring me?
Luvs! <3
I LOVE YOU MY SWEET!!! MUAH :-*

- Some General Tso's to make for the family for a dinner....very nice so that I don't have to make dinner since this is also something that I've been struggling with.
- Some SmartOnes meals so that I don't have to think about making 'bad food choices' I have something quick & easy to turn to....LURVE it!
- Some Reduced Fat Pringles....he knows how much I llurve these.....squeeze!!!
- Some YUMMY double churned chocolate ice cream....this is the best kind of ice cream if you are on a diet....there are a few different flavors, some with less points, but if you like ice cream it is a great treat for not so many points!!!......AWESOME!......DOUBLE SQUEEZE!!!
- ........the not sweet (not goot for my diet) stuff.....my very own box of my favorite box chocolate donuts....I am a name brand person with these!! HOSTESS ALL THE WAY BA-BY!!!

{So Far...}
Yesterday I was able to get quite a lot done around the house.....BUT I was still finding myself stuffing my face without even realizing it when I wasn't even hungry.....not such a good feeling. Even when I've gotten so much done around the house. I'm thinking that I must be on a 'high'...especially being excited with the kids being back in school & wanting to get the house in some sort of order after they were home for so long. Because not only did I get a lot done yesterday.....but I was ALL over the place....doing something over here, cleaning this over here, picking this up over this way, doing a little project in here....it was like I had ADD or something....I just couldn't concentrate on anything for long so when you look around my house you can't really tell that much got done when it really did.....and then last night I when I was getting ready for bed I still wasn't able to get my brain to calm down. I went to bed so late.....And I made myself go to bed at that.....my brain was still just going everywhere.
I didn't do an actually workout yesterday. Although like I said I was doing things almost non-stop.....I think I only stopped to blog, and to take a shower, sit down to eat dinner.....OH! I sat down when I was taping up my cricut lol and then when I went to bed....man! lol So yah.....still working on it though.....Did notice quite a bit thought that my tummy isn't as tone as it used to me..... :-S REALLY not liking that. Trying really hard not to sink into that whole self hate depression of emotinal eating circle that I usually do that just makes my tummy bigger.......SO I this morning when I took my meds I took them with water.....which honestly I havne't even been doing that in a long time.....and I've pulled out my food journal finally...my goal isn't really to stay in my points range today with it, but to see REALLY where I'm at and what I'm doing to myself with my points on a regualr basis.....and to be able to go and adjust from there. I think that the choices I've been making lately it would just be too much a a drastic difference to go to where I'm supposed to be lol UGH That's really bad! I've been making such BAD food choices!!! That's okay though....each choice is a choice, and I can only make the next choice a GOOD CHOICE......

{Wrong BandWagon.....}
Morning Weight: 141
Today's Activites: Cleaned Down Stairs Bathroom, Picked Up Coat Closet & Started Re-Organizing It, Continuing Fixing Table for Scrap Area, Dishes, Cleaned Kitchen, Cleaned Entry, Continued Laundry...
Okay....well I have offcially been on America's "Holiday/Christmas" BandWagon....& I am am officially saying that I am now SICK of it!!! As I was stuffing my mouth with yet again another cookie while I was getting ready to finally take a shower....I realized that I wasn't even hungry......I had started to emotinally eat again, and not even a little bit....A LOT. This is not a good thing for me. When I get into a rut with emotinally eating, and when I'm doing it without even noticing it.....not such a fun thing to get out of it. And I haven't been working out for months now either.....which means I'm basically starting over from square one! UGH! I hate this spot! But I've got to do it! I don't want to be where I was last year! Not only did I get rid of my fat clothes, so I don't even have clothes to wear if I start gaining all this weight back, but I'm fianlly starting to work on my self hate.....which isn't nearly as easy for me to do while I'm so over weight! UGH UGH UGH
I hate the winter months! And with everything that has been going on at home......this winter has been even harder than in the past....I'm sure living in Washington this year which I'm just not used to to be honest isn't helping either. Not that I don't like living here, it's just that I'm not used to it anymore.....I really did love the mellow winters of North Carolina.
Hubby started working the day shift again this week, so we're adjusting to that. We think that will be a good thing, it's just adjusting to it all. I am now stuck at home during the day with no vehicle....which really is the biggest negative to it all. Most of it is pretty positive.....he'll be home on the weekends and he'll be able to go to all of his appointments without a problem now. :-D
So I've been getting up in the mornings with him to make him breakfast & spend a little time with him before he leaves for work. And of course there's not enough time to go back to bed (lol) before the boys need to get up to get ready for school. So I'm adjusting to the schedule with him. I'm hoping to be able to have the energy here soon to put that time to use. I've been getting some household things done so far.....thankfully the boys haven't adjusted to school quite yet so I don't have them up yet. lol But I'm not adjusted yet to getting up so early so I'm not ready to be working out that early yet either lol We'll see.....I'd like to be doing that soon though.....cuz I'm WAY too tired from getting up so early to do it at nap time too! And I'm stuck at UGH again!
That's all I have for now!

{PinUpMama Monique's 2010s Healthly Goals}
My ABSOLUTE #1 Goal for RIGHT NOW.....is that I need to get my punk self back into gear and get working out and paying attention to what I eat again!!!
I'm still working on my Goal list that I had periviously....
#4 is to reach my pre-pregnancy weight of 135
#5 is "healthy" BMI weight of 125
#6 is to go to Miss Indigo Blue's Academy of Burlesque
This is a new one for me. The reason I would like to do this is because I have dealt with self hate for a very long time. Not only hate of my body, which I reall think this will help with....but SELF HATE. A lot of people deal with this....most hide it behind thinking they just need to lose weight and they think they will be 'happy'.....but I know this the hard why, at least for me....mine is self hate.....I won't go into too much detail in this post....maybe another time.....
So overall, I am hoping that this school will show me that I can love myself for who I am....body and all.
I'm going to be really thinking of some other goals to try and get me more motivated.....I really want to start the 30Day Shred again....I can tell that my muscle isn't as tone as it was a few months ago.....I can't believe it's BEEN a few months already!!!

{New Years Eve 2009}
Normally we all don't do much for New Years Eve.....this year really wasn't too much different...lol...we just got to do it all together! :-D Besides when we were kiddos our selves I think this was the first New Years that My Seester and I have spent together as adults.
We hung out and ate some chips and dip....watch the guys play with the HDMI cables on the tv & ps3 *rolls eyes* lol watched a couple movies, ate some pizza.....and basically just enjoyed each other's company. :-D
CAN'T FORGET THE KISSES AT MIDNIGHT!!!
Jon & Jeanette
Tommy & Monique
