I am proud of myself. Why? I have managed to keep up my exercise routine even during the crazy end of semester rush. I have also added more days and more activities. I make myself work for it. Really work for it. Blood, sweat and tears work for it. Minus the blood & tears. Mostly I just sweat. I want to be healthy, not a masochist.
And while it has not been easy to keep with it I make it a priority. I know I am making myself a priority by doing it and can be a better wife, mother and all around woman by taking care of my body. I really think being doing that, staying committed even during life’s day to day challenges, has helped me a ton. I truly feel less stressed than I did several months ago. I also have the benefit of having my clothes fit better, which I must say is always nice. However, the best part is I feel better in my own skin when I am more active and more like me. And I like how that feels.
And this blurry picture shot with one hand is a partial view of what I see from the elliptical machine. Notice my youngest son, he is deciding to “create” with his brothers’ Legos {who as you can guess are always so appreciative of his assistance, haha!}. He usually hangs out with me when I work out. He often says things like “Yay, Mommy!” and claps every now again. Which I must admit is very affirming.
