Accountability check in: Day 17 of 30 days of movement #NEW

I am very thankful that I am gaining friendship but I feel like I am allowing myself to get distracted. I am still working out, today I jogged 1.5 miles and met up with the girls from my building at the mall where we walked laps and let our kids play together. I got home and I am exhausted from the week. Each of them have husbands and support at home with their kids and they don’t fully understand how much of a challenge single parenting can be. I feel stretched thin but I’m unsure if this is just my mind wanting to retreat to its comfort zone, isolation or if these are true feelings. I’m going to continue to meet up but I need to set boundaries and if I get overwhelmed remind myself it’s ok to raincheck.

I do love jogging but I just feel like I’m getting more of a workout with the QW app. Part of me feels guilty? Or like I’m failing on days I did not use the app.

Today was an active rest day. The boys and I went to the gym. Did some deep stretching and light cardio and tested out some equipment I watched on YouTube. Next weeks mini goal is to bring QW to the gym and utilize the gym workout videos! Overall good day feel better than yesterday!

Wendy, I hope you are making progress and utilizing all that is offered to us through QW!!

I hit a brick wall today. I still ran 1.5 miles and walked 1 mile at pace… did a little weights and I plan to close out the day with Fabiana abs and booty but I don’t know… I had a forced interaction with my ex and it just is like gnawing on my gut. I feel unmotivated. Unsure. Tomorrow is a new day and we will start fresh.

Wendy! Sending you love and positive thoughts!

*I did not workout with Fabiana I ate chips and ice cream. Granted, it was four spoons of ice cream and the 5 chips over the serving suggestion but still… it’s the action of the old habit that I’m scared of. I knew what I was doing and I just continued to self sabotage. How do I change this behavior? How do I get to a point where my ex doesn’t have such a crippling affect on me. I feel like I just wasted the last 15 days for empty calories… I will refocus and regroup and move forward from this setback. I have to.

Accountability check in: Day 14 of 30 days of movement #NEW

I joined a local gym today. The girls that I mentioned from my accountability post day 12, they go to this gym. I went in while my oldest was in school. I thought I’d just take a tour and come back when I could afford it. The manager not only hooked it up with a discounted membership but also offered me a job!! I still have to go through the hiring process so keep us in your prayers… but I have been looking for something that would allow me to bring in money without having to pay for childcare. With this position I can bring both of my boys with me to work… but you can even see on here in the comment sections when we were asked what our one Christmas wish would be…I asked for this!!! God blessed me!!

I went back with both of my boys after I picked the oldest from school. I jogged on the treadmill for one mile and came home to complete the abs and booty courses with Fabiana . While we were there the boys played in the kid zone area and I was able to see them from where I was working out on the gym floor. First time I’ve had them babysat. Scary. We didn’t spend much time today because I wanted to see how they would do/react to the new surroundings.

A lot of transitions going on and major shifts.. all positive and welcomed.

Fabiana I truly believe that without embracing the positivity from this community none of these things would be happening. The power of a true mental shift is an unbelievable miracle. Thank you

Wendy, I’m thinking of you every day… looking out for a text or post from you. I hope you’re doing well!!
