Day 3

Nope I haven't forgotten, but last night was a tough night. My daughter was up at 2am wanting to eat yogurt n bananas, your thinking well that not bad give the girl some food, well she didn't go back to be until almost 4 am. An even then it was fighting me n Jermaine. So I told myself I wouldn't freak out n just do my workout after work. Yes it's alot harder for me to find time but tonight I will have to. So day 3 u started with a twist but I will find time to get my workout on. C u later with my mini after workout post :)

Day 2 30 day shred

I feel sore! Everything hurts, but i stuck thru it this morning woke up at 7am and got my workout in! I feel my muscle achy, but i hope i can go forward with this. Todays workout wasn't too hard im still at level one, the push up got easier but the weight training with the weights is horrible, my arms hurt the most, I also work today and oh my, that wont be fun.
Im off to wrk!

30 day shred starts today!!

Hi everyone, Michele here,
I know i haven't posted in forever and a day but with a full-time job, 19 month old baby, two dogs and a boyfriend life gets in the way! :) But today i have just completed my first day of 30 day shred, I am following it thru YOUTUBE! I think its very doable for mothers who don't have 1-3 hours available for the gym. I am doing this at home in my living room with no shoes on! ( i don't have running sneakers and as for weights i am using my favorite chefboyrdee spaghetti with meatballs (haha better than me eating it right)!! It is hard i will not lie the push up are by far the hardest for me, I love the jumping and cardio but HATE with a passion strength training UGH!!! But i will stick it thru it's only 30 days and less than 30 min a day! I will try to do them every morning before i go to work, but on my days off i will do them after breakfast! I think its this a great starting program for me because i haven't exersice since before Samaya was born 2010 and i did okay! Hope to keep you guys posted on my routine by blogging everyday, it will also keep me motivated. My measurements before working out today were as follows

Natural waist 29 inches
Tummy 34 inches
Thighs 21 1/2 inches
Chest 34 1/2 inches
Arms 9 3/4 inches

i will be posting pictures of me before and after just have to take them, Im not in horrible shape i only weight aprox 130 lbs, and im 5 4" but the thing is i have huge baby belly that need to get toned before i turn 29!!!
Well anyways good luck to me, and if anyone wants to join me in this journey please feel free to contact me below!

Bed share.....

So it's 3:35am and yes I still bed share with my daughter. I'm so tired n sleepy I forget n set her on the outside of the bed. My baby girl (16 months old) is a mover at night. She starts yelling ... She's on the floor. I feel so bad for her but at the same time think uuuggghhh I could avoid this. Tomorrow we will start her sleeping in her own bed.
Thanks for allowing me to vent. Back to bed I go.

Im a working Momma... with a huge HEADACHE!!!!

Hi there long time!

So I have been working at a retail store, just doing some basic stock work and OMG I am in love with working. I wish i could be there all the time! LOL not really, but i do enjoy working again. I only wish I had more responsibility, I feel like I can be giving said company 100% more of me, My thoughts and ideas and Im not allowed to! Its kinda annoying but I guess it will have to do for now. I need to remember as much as I want to work hard and get my career/self worth back, I will be missing on time with my daughter and that don't fly with me. I hate that the three days that I work now I come home and she goes straight to bed.. I miss my mommy and baby days!

- So today I'm sitting here thinking which way will I go? will I be the hard working career oriented mother/person that I am at heart? or will I work just enough to pay for childcare and enjoy my daughter toddler days!
I guess being a mom isn't a day/night/hourly/weekly struggle, when a person has a kid omg that bond is unbreakable! I feel as if everything is on my shoulders and I want to make only the BEST decisions! WHAT IS THE BEST decision?? who knows? Shit not even me... lol hope i make the best one for my family!
-Hope all my readers are doing okay and having fun! Were still cloth diapering and i plan on making some fitted cloth diapers to maybe sell or at the very least introduce my family and friends to a better way   for diapering there children! I'm thinking that maybe Feb. or March i can start to get my projects together.
Good luck and continue to read! Hope to be writing more often, Im getting Samaya back on her sleeping pattern, her molar's are no longer an issue at least for tonight.... lets hope it last more than one night!
