McFatty Monday week 2

On to week two! My first week I can happily say I lost 2 pounds! I stuck to at least one of my three goals from last week! I did only have one cup of coffee from the Keurig a day! I did take the boys out walking one day and almost died from using the muscles I hadn't used in who knows how long! The baked goods situation, well I made Corbin these blueberry muffins from a recipe one of my students parents gave me last year that only has a half a cup of sugar and oatmeal in the recipe. So they are healthier than my regular baked goods. I like to bake and can't help it! I really need to work on not baking as often though. Corbin and I are the only ones who usually eat them anyways.

I also got the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred DVD and did that yesterday. Let me tell you today that I am sore! It was a little hard to manage because my two year old either wanted snacks or wanted me to "lay down Mommy" on my yoga mat when it wasn't time to!

I didn't not eat so healthy on Saturday because it was my sister Merritt's 25th birthday. We had a girls day! I needed one so bad! :) (I really appreciated Jason watching the boys so I could do that! He went and saw a movie yesterday while I watched the boys!) My mom took us to lunch, I shared a salad with my sis. We went and saw Leap Year! LOVED IT! It is one I am going to have to buy on DVD! Then we went to dinner at North in the Domain. YUMMY! My sister wanted cupcakes instead of a cake. My mom made these yummy orange chocolate cupcakes and lemon with meringue and fresh fruit!

Side note: Corbin was so cute when we left for the movie he thought he was going too and was at my parents door that leads to the garage and said "mon' Mommy!" It just about broke my sister, my mom and my hearts! It was super cute!

One thing I did noticed compared to before is how much I eat when I am NOT even hungry! So I am trying to not eat when I am not.

Goals this week:

1) Do Jillian Michaels at least three times this week! (I hope I am able to accomplish this and don't get too overwhelmed with going back to work Wednesday.)

2) Don't stress eat/snack when I go back to work! I used to eat snack when the kids ate snack and wasn't even hungry most of the time. I tended to snack on peanut m&ms when I was pregnant with Grayson during my planning period which is at 2:00 and basically all my kiddos are gone by then.

3) Don't stress and try to enjoy my boys and know that eventually everything will get done each night for the next day, ie. housework, making lunches, dinner etc.


Also, I might add last night should be a night for the history books in our house hold. Jason put Corbin to bed and he immediately fell asleep! No crying! I had to go check on his to see if he was still breathing! (He did wake up at 5:45 though :( ) This is the first time since he was born he has done this! I know your probably thinking "so what?" but this kid is a terrible sleeper, so this is huge!
