Sweat is Fat Crying

I certainly want to believe that. If it is true, my fat is crying hard this morning. I can't stop sweating! I got up and got my exercise on this morning. I finished the video fifteen minutes ago, but I'm still sweating profusely. Perhaps my fat is in extra pain and just can't stop crying this morning. Fine by me! Well, sort of. I mean, don't get me wrong, I know sweat is good and it means I worked enough to sweat. However, I do not like sweat. It feels gross and makes me stink. I already put deodorant like three times! But anyway, I digress. Back to the exercising, enough of the sweating. I did the walk video twice yesterday! I actually did it twice! I kept saying I was going to do it, but never did. I actually did it! Whew! And I am on day four of my exercise streak. I'm proud of myself for that. Four days doesn't seem like much, but it is for me. I keep skipping a day here or there and making an excuse for it, but I hope to keep it going for a long time this time.

Now that I am getting my exercise game going, I need to reign in the eating issue. That time of the month is almost over (thank God!) and hopefully this cold I've been suffering with will leave with it. Then I can get back to feeling 100% again. Though I am proud of myself in that respect. I have felt like total crap and I totally could have used that as a pretty good excuse for not exercising, but I didn't. I think the exercising did make me feel better in the long run. If I can keep the exercise going when I feel like death warmed over, than I shouldn't have a problem with it when I'm feeling like myself again. Now the eating, however, I have totally used my out of whack hormones to justify eating like crap. I've got to stop that. Today my family is having cheeseburgers and fries for dinner. They are homemade and not fast food, however. I haven't decided what I'm going to do yet as far as my meal goes. I could have one burger and keep it simple, little or no mayo, fat free cheese and lots of veggies on it; or I could forgo the bun and have a burger salad. I am baking the french fries in the oven, so those won't be too bad to partake in as long as I don't over do it. Today I am also going to hit up a couple of stores that are having really cheap produce on sale right now and get some to eat this week and next, as well as cutting some up and freezing it. I am also taking advantage of my son being at his grandpa's today and trying to do some future meal planning to save some money and some calories.

Also, as far as my list of things to do went yesterday, I updated it as I got things done. So, I got quite a bit done off of my list! Go me! I'm putting a list on the bottom of this post as well. It seemed to help motivate me to do it once I had posted it to the internet.

1) Shop for produce - done
2) Clean apartment (it's an everyday thing with two kids!) - done
3) Call school for Lacey's kindergarten
4) Pick up package for Tom at his sister's house - done
5) Clean out fridge (will have to for new produce...lots of old leftovers)
