<3Cerella's Restarting, Refocused and Remotivated<3

Howdy Girly,
Wow you have been working out up a storm in here!
Also I am excited about the challange it will be lots of fun!
So let me know how those videos are,I keep saying I will buy

weekend,Tammy
 
Hi Babe :)

Sorry I've been MIA....I'll do better! Sounds like you've been just as busy as me!

Keep working hard!
 
Hi Carella

I dont know Ladyumbra - but I know that you and Tammy are going to be a dynamite team for the new challenge. I know how well you both did in the parallel challenge - including the fact that Tammy's weight loss was only beaten by TheKrinse. With that kind of track record - and I know how good you both are with exercise - I know that you will do really well.

You are so good with your exercise. I know that if I was working full time - I really dont think that I would manage to do as much as you. I know that your children (much as I know that you love them more than words could say) also divert your attention from your weight loss dreams. Be proud that you are doing what you are doing. We all have moments of weakness with food. Just forgive yourself and try to do better. We are all only human.

Take care
Love
Margaret
 
Thanx ladies...ive been busy and stressed and eating like crap - Ive put on a good 10 lbs I bet between water retention and weight...BLAH-I get so tired of yo-yoing and such and feeling like a failure...I just have such a crazzzy life to begin with that once something else gets thrown at me it is hard to maintain and such...so im wokrin gon pulling myself back up...

It isnt just the kids it is also my demanding exhausting job...I work crazy 10 hr shifts - I pull alot of doubles...im just always tired...

Im givining myself my time now here at my moms nad dads and will start on Monday...Im gonna figure out exactly how Im gonna tackle all this and go from there...

I think im gonna follow the YOU on a diet plan and starting doing Callanetics everyday and that will count as my 30 strength training...I also bought the prevention mag with all the biggest looser stuff in it and Im gonna do the fitness circuit they have in there 3 time a week...so far I think that is the plan plus everythign else I already do...

The kids behaviours have also been off the wall lately so that takes ALOT outta me....

Im still here just slowly sinking at the moment and will once agian pull myself out in a few days:)Rest time for me...

This week for exercise I did:

a 30 min walk on Saturday

1.5 walk on Sunday

Lesile Sansome Power Mile walk 20 mins with weights
and Yoga Booty Ballet 20 mins on Monday

I did nothing on Tuesday I didnt have time and needed a break - It was an exhausting day - I stayerd up all day Monday without a rest after working all night - taking Taneesha to ballet - going shopping and playing at the park also going to my cousins for a visit in the evening...

Yoga for 45 mins on Wednesday...

Nothing on Thursday

About to hop on the bike here and will find som time for Yoga later on:)
 
*Waves to her team mate*

Sounds like despite all thats going on ( how the heck do you pull 2x10 hour shifts and still raise kids?) you're staying pretty damn strong. It's going to be a joy working with you I'm sure.

Hey There :)

Well it isn't easy - I have family help obviously...I rent out my granny's basement suite her and my Aunt live upstairs so they step in when needed...
2 10 shifts is damn hard...alot of times to I work the overnight shift adn then have to go back in agian for a evening shift - it totally sucks - LOL!!!

So im hoping now that I can put everything aside and start moving forward agian...it has been a little over 2 weeks since my grandma passed - the only thing is it has open a big law suite and I am stressin over all that as well...

My Aunt who has been taking care of my grandma with dementia for all these years has been caught stealing from her and so on and so forth - take your worse case scenario and you ahve it...like a soap opera or on tv...LOL...

Sad but true - she appearantly bought the house for a dollar back before she was even diagnois and so on...it is crazzzy all this shit...so my poor parents are paying for the lawyer and doing what they can but it seems so far she is and has gotten away with it....they started this law suite about 6 months ago and just before my grandma passed was the deadline for my aunt to produce all this documentation that she was gonna be called on - now everyhtign changes...*SIGH*

This is why I exercise so much ppl - to control my stress...:toetap05:

To throw more into the pot my 3 year old is just plain outta control...I am beside myself...just appalled at her behaviour...she did liek a 360 man...she is a good easy going kid - why I do so much with her...that has changed , maybe somethign is up...Im gonna see a pediatrician and get her allergy tested for starters...

PWEEEHHH - Now on to me...

Well I said monday for sure and here I am...Im at work this mornign tonight whatever working my overnoight...Midnight - 8am...at 2am I did 40 mins of Yoga and I am about to do my Power Mile by Lesile Samsone...it is walking with weights for 30 mins...

I am gonna try a cleansing of fruit and veggie juices - gonna try not sure if I can or not...It is supposta be a natural way to start healing my psosryosis...we will see how far I get...I am not doing this to drop weight and I repeat I am not doing this to drop weight!!!

It is like a detox to start small from the beginning and cancel out allergies...

Ok and I came up with a name for our Amazing Race Team - The Exercising Bunnies:)
Im sure I have more to say but if I dont go and do my Power Mile now I wont get it in:)

This is me reclimbing back onto the path...

@-@, I feel for you so much right now. I can't say I even beggining to understand what you go through but I can say i feel for you. I'm hoping everything can be worked out swiftly and fairly in the end. You really need less stress in your life.

also hoping your daughter has some simple like allergies or is just being moody right now.

*Offers you a hand to help get back onto the path* we're both a bit shakey right now but we can make it.

Hey girl, stay STRONG!! we all have periods of chaos in our lives, trust me, it too will pass, so just stick with your guns and keep your chin up, I wish I had something to tell you that would fix it all, but with life it just has to run it's course. I don't know how you do it with 10 hour days and working out, and taking care of the kids, it's hard ass work! I know I used to do the same thing when my sons where your girls age. I was that single parent too, and it was never easy at all!! I always seemed to run into obstacles, in which at that time I thought was the "end" of me. How was I going to buy groceries this week? How would I put gas in the car two days before payday, how would I afford my own dental work, when I exhausted everything I had on my sons first! Well, it all work itself out, I prayed a LOT! I confided in my big sis, she's a year older and my best friend, and I just took it a day at a time. So I know what your going through Trust Me!! One good thing your very strong willed like me, your determined to make it for your kids, again Like me, and nothing will stop you from pushing forward, because you know some how some way it will come together in the end. My prayers are with you during this trying time, and hopefully soon it will all come together for you, YOU DESERVE the best and don't you forget it! Don't worry about the workouts, if you have extra time then throw in what you can, maybe the best focus would be to eat balanced food to keep you energized at this time. Much love and hugs to you girlie, I'll be thinking about you!
Hugs

Aww..Twin you are so wonderful. I agree with you--Cerella deserves the best and she'll make it all happen in time. I'm sorry you're having a rough time of things, but I admire your refusal to give up. I hope you do very well in my challenge--I'm sure you will. :D
 
Thanx Gals...

This is my life has been for a looong time:)All I can do is roll with the punches, kepp gettin up and dusting myself off and laugh...that is about the extent of it...

Today is my day off...so as a favour to a friend I am watching her daugther on my days off so she can work as she has just become a single mom...I have a crazy ass work schedule this month and on my few and far days off I will be hangin out with another child:)Oh well...

When Taneesha is in preschool so far the plan is to go for a walk with Tehya...and when I am at Deanna's this evening after Tehya goes to bed I am going to do some Yoga with weights:)

Seems my exercise groove is back!

You're a good friend for babysitting! I think I got burned out babysitting as a teen. I can only handle certain kids, and for short periods of time before I feel totally mentally exhausted. Raising kids is tough work.
