And just like that I was rich....


Ok, not rich rich like just won a powerball jackpot, but I did hit the health jackpot. I lost 8.2 lbs and won $53!  I have to wonder...is it smart to be motivated by money? Well we all have to be motivated by something and if money works for you then DO IT!  And this win was just the little extra push I needed to get ready for this months diet bet...Ive felt just meh cause even though since March first I have lost 12.4 lbs...I cant really tell. And I know when you look at yourself every day its hard to see the change happening. But I really wish I could go to bed and wake up 140 lbs and just be like, "Ooooh Girl, you look GOOD!"  Small progress leads to huge results. I keep telling myself over and over and eventually it will sink in. I am great at praising others but when it comes to me I'm just like...meh. I don't self loathe but sometimes I annoy myself. I'm sure there is therapy for that ;).
This month I am doing another dietbet and I am to loose 7.8 lbs for my 4% goal. I track my food/calories, drink 1/2 my body weight in water and am semi using the Herbal life program. Oh and I joined the gym last month and I go 3-4 times a week. And yes...Ive been walking around flexing my little pistol guns lately. Also a friend recently started Sunset Yoga classes once a week and they are amazing. I leave feeling like I am at peace and one with nature. Then I walk in the house and my 3 year old hits me with a non stop line of mommy mommy mommy mommy mommy mommy mommy mommy mom....well you get the picture. Snap back to reality quick!
I run a Facebook group for working on our health. And I hope one day to host one of these awesome games. So I am sure I'll see you around. :D
