I'm still struggling this week to figure out how to stop eating junk and get back to exercising. I'll do well eating, then exercise, then eat junk, or do well eating then no exercise, or I'll just eat junk and not exercise. I just can't seem to find a good routine. I'm still trying though, I'm not ever going to give up, I may feel like giving up sometimes, but I haven't completely given up yet. I haven't weighed yet, but I know I've gained from my last weigh in, which was already at the upper end of my weight in a long time. I need to weigh myself and record it so I have a starting point. I know it will be bad, but I have to do it.
Today, I have meals/snacks planned for work, not sure what's for dinner but I'm going to try to do well. I'm going to get a workout in after work also. My hubby works a day shift today, so I should be able to workout without having to worry about dinner being ready early for him. I'm struggling to figure out which workouts to do right now too. I need to make myself a calendar so I don't have to think, I can just do. That worked last year, so maybe that's what I need to do now. I'm going to start my couch to 5K back up this weekend since it's supposed to be nice, I think that will help to, just having that goal.
My hubby was complaining to me last night about gaining weight and being out of shape. He is really wanting to do better, I know because he actually ate an apple for a snack last night, that is unheard of for him. The good thing is that he's motivated, so I can try to make healthier dinners and have his support, instead of complaints. Having both of us actually trying to do better will make a big difference.
I hope everyone has a great Wednesday!!

I didn't feel well the other day and the weekend we totally blew off working out. Didn't work out Tuesday or today. Tomorrow we start anew. With cold meds, I feel better and are more apt to get my lazy butt up in the morning.

Same with me! It's hard for me if I don't plan my meals in advance. And when I say meals, i'm only talking about dinners mostly. I work from home, so I sit basically by the refridgerator. I stopped buying soda and chips and basically all the good stuff so that I don't just want to graze.
When I excersice I feel like coming home and eating everything. That is when your supposed to have protein so you don't eat junk.
Anyway, i've been shopping at Costco and getting bulk on chicken, pork chops, and only sometimes steak. I get lots of veggies and fruits. It's saved me alot of money so far because we used toshop everyday at the grocery store and I would pick up popcorn too, and junk because I was hungry.
Working at home though you would think I would get out and walk around the block and do "something" but I sit here for 10 hours working and t hen make dinner and too tired to do anything else. I need to change that because I feel like i'm gaining weight around my middle, and that is the reason why. Ugh!!
Good luck! You can do it!!!

Try adding more quality protein to your diet. Drink a lot of water. They will both make you feel fuller longer. Small meals under 200 calories every 2 hours will make it more manageable. What kind of workout are you and your husband currently doing?

Thanks all!! GO-YA, I do DVD's or workouts from an app, when I actually do a workout, and my hubby will go to the gym and run on the treadmill, and that is rarely. I really have enjoyed running the last couple of years, but just can't get myself to go out in the cold, and my hubby is the same way. The DVD's I do are either Jillian Michaels workouts or Turbo Fire. I'm really looking forward to the warmer weather to start running again!
