Never miss a Monday! Isn’t that what we all hear? I got these off Pinterest and Fatgirlfedup’s instagram.
Yesterday I actually did NOT go over my calories. I think this was the first Sunday in a month that I didn’t!
I also did arm weights at home using my 5 pound handheld weights for 15 minutes to make sure I hit my 30 minutes of exercise for yesterday. I did not go to the gym since I was cooking and cleaning. I didn’t even hit 10,000 steps but that’s okay for a rest day. I still hit all of my daily goals from my watch. Go me!
I am VERY determined to get where I want to be. I’m not trying to go run a marathon, I want to be able to go up stairs without huffing and puffing. I want to be able to walk around this park here that has a 3 mile track (anyone on WordPress in Houston please feel free to contact me and go walk with me – I won’t go alone). I want to keep up with my child when he’s taking off on me.
Today, I am taking Cranky to her dentist and then need to drive down to see my chiropractor again. My back really started hurting again last night and this morning. It was probably the weights. I only used 5 pound ones though!!!
My ground beef wasn’t thawed so I will be making my meatloaf muffins tonight. I didn’t like the chicken very much. Maybe I can douse it with ketchup, like a chicken strip. I will also go do cardio at the gym. Maybe the bike or maybe the elliptical. We shall see!
I started thinking about this About Me part of my blog. I'm going to expand it just a little from the 3 words I had before.
I am a single mom. I love my son. We have been alone since he was 6 months old. He really is my sun, moon, and stars. I am very proud of him.
I am an entrepreneur. I started my driving business 2 years ago. I don't want to work for a "boss" ever again. I always tell people they can do it too. In what I do, there is no competition because there are plenty of people that need rides (and maybe that would help get some of these bad drivers off the roads!). I work hard and have fun on my own time doing what I like to do.
I really am a Netflix addict. When I am not working or doing something with my son, I am watching Netflix. There are so many shows that I've never re-watched anything either. I will watch anything and make my own opinion.
I am opinionated. This blog is really just my opinions and my life. People don't have to agree with me all the time. I welcome discussions and other people's opinion whether they agree or not. I'm not petty, I'm not going to block anyone for not sharing my opinion, why do people freak out these days when someone doesn't share their opinion? Who cares?!? There is a reason we all are different.
There's a lot more about me but you'll have to read the blog to find out!

Loved the kidney stones poster! I keep telling myself I’m going to start working out, I must stop with the I’ll do it tomorrow mentality!
I am going to be looking for another job today! And motivating myself with quotes and things all day! Loved your quotes at the beginning. I’m also gonna try to prestige a little bit. That kidney stones one was my favorite. Not gonna lie, that was a new one for me and it hit home HARD! Great post!
Great post lady! You already know I’m hitting the gym today then some cleaning and then some amazing coffee and relaxation.lol. Have a great day and great job with the gym and your calories, I see you over there grindin’!
Take care of your back… rest days are allowed. I quit MFP because it felt so restrictive. But portion and quality are important. Best of luck on your continuing journey. Process and progress are more important than the goal, per http://www.JamesClear.com.
