I am Going Mad

Oh my god the past few weeks have been an absolute nightmare that I really really hate being a stay at home mum. Illness and naughtiness has been a major problem and I just feel numb from it all. 

It is a battle everyday especially with my eldest child Ollie I really can't wait for him to go to school as a mum I really shouldn't say that but the stress is just too much now. 

I can't control him at all I try and try but he just doesn't listen so I end up shouting due to the frustration. I never enjoyed working all that much but this is actually hell and now want to go to work. 

Being a mum is not what I thought at all and I'm not really enjoying it. People keep saying to me enjoy this age as it goes so fast, you will be sad when they go to school but to be honest I can't wait for my freedom. I can't do anything without them. I was asked if I would like to help out at my weight watchers meetings on a Saturday but I can't because I'd have to bring these two naughty boys with me which wouldn't work, I've had to turn down doing craft events as no one around to look after the boys. It really does feel like its me and them 24/7 with hardly any help no matter how much I shout out for it. 

I can't be the only person to feel this way but it does make me feel awful as I should be enjoying it but I think I will look back at this stage of my life as the toughest stage yet.

Super Bargain

Weight Track Week 9-12

Week 9: Gained 0.5lb (gutted)
Lots of exercise this week including fitness DVD, BuggyFit and walking. I calculated if I walk to and from the supermarket it is approx 3 miles.
I do tons of walking as I sold my car last year and the boys are getting heavier to push in the buggy so it's a great work out. I am also an Avon Rep so I'm always delivering, posting and collecting orders and books. I've been abit stressy with the boys this week so I have been snacking more again eek! So I guess that is were I went wrong as I nibbled on the boys left overs as well. I used all my extra 49 pp but thought I would be ok as I exercised. It seems to be all about food with me if I lose. 

Week 10: Lost 3lb 
I have had a better week with food after gaining the week before, I have kept the wine as a treat though. I haven't done the exercise dvd this week but have had one session of BuggyFit. I also have some of my extra Pro Points left. 

Reached 10% goal and received my keyring woohoo! 

I've been looking at pounds and kg and I've lost 8kg that's approx 8 bags of sugar that mad when you think about carrying that around with you all day. (156lb).

Week 11: Lost 1.5lb

Feeling good this week as I was curious about trying a size 12 dress on I saw so I put over my clothes and a woman said it looked nice and trendy so I had to buy it but the best thing was its a size 12 amazing it has been so long. I also tried on a denim skirt that I have had in my draw for at least two years and it is not tight anymore hehe!

I have booked a holiday for September which is roughly 10 weeks away and I'm thinking I would like a nice bikini so this will be my aim over the coming weeks as I would like to look good in one (no wobbly bits). 

17.07.14 Feeling Good.

It was hubby's birthday so we do have sausage and chips at the seaside but I shared with my two boys. Also friends staying over so more wine was had eek! I was good in other ways as I gave my chips away at dinner and refused cake and ice cream.

Week 12: Lost 0.5lb (wanted 1lb)
Bad week for wine I've got a taste for it now so I have switched to a light rose. I've walked and sweated a lot in the heat so that must help. One day I was really bad and had half a choc orange (I can't believe I did that) but my boys stressed me out so it was a way to make myself feel better.  

Started the 30 day shred again so just managed 3 days as started Wednesday. I increased the exercise but only had 1 weekly pp left which again shows its all about the food. Gutted I wanted to reach 11 stone this week so close.

Butterfly Pain

OMG I have had another tattoo today and it hurt. 

My original butterfly was when I was 19 years old and for a while I wanted another butterfly so after I lost a stone in weight it was my reward.

The original started to look a blurred mess so today I had it revamped and other added. I love it but the pain got me sweating buckets I thought I was going to faint at one point. 

Weight Track Week 5-8

Week 5: Lost 2lb

Another week I was shocked as had a couple of pig outs, wine and had a night out for dinner. I did have some good days though and exercised.

Week 6: Lost 1lb

I really thought I had put on this week but then again dispite some piggy moments I still chose differently for breakfast, lunch and dinner and I seem to drink much more than I used to. 

BuggyFit Class

Week 7: Lost 1.5lb

Tried a bit harder this week and managed more walking. Feeling so much better already and dropped a dress size.
I hoped for 2lb to make it a complete stone as I've said once I hit a 1 stone lose I'm getting a tattoo. 

Nearly there :)

Week 8: Lost 1.5lb

This week I increased the exercise and purchased a fitness DVD which I did 3days this week and it killed me. My tattoo is booked :)
