Why does this always happen?

Last week Briana with Bikini Body Mommy was hosting her last surge before Christmas and I was excited and fully on board to bust my butt and lose a few pounds before the holidays.

I started the workout ready to have a great week. Then BAM...finishing up and my shoulder decided I pushed myself to far and I was done for at least a week.

I wasn't sure how long it would take to feel better I just knew I needed to not push it further because 7.0 starts in a few weeks and I need to be 100% ready.

I have a 50 pound loss that I want to achieve this year. It's actually a realistic goal and it feels like that I could actually achieve it this year but it seems every time I want to take a step forward towards making this goal a reality something like this happens.

Back in September when I had successfully completed 2 surges and dropped a pant size I was motivated...then I had a vacation that helped me go back to old habits and all the progress and motivation has contiuned to go out the window.

Why does this happen?

I wish I had an answer. I really do because then I'd know how to avoid it from happening during Bikini Body Mommy's 7.0 challenge coming up.

My plan to keep me from having life mess me up is to let my shoulder rest until 7.0. It's about 2 weeks away and Christmas week is next week so I'm just going to relax and enjoy the holiday. Then after all the celebrating and family time I'm going to jump in feet first to a new way of life for 2018!

I'm going to learn how to batch cook to make meals easier! I'm going to schedule me time with exercising every day because I need it! I'm going to enjoy reading books more than watching tv! I'm going to make sure my kids have a successful school year!

But I'm not going to do this as a New Year's resolution. Because that's setting myself up to fail.

I'm going to do this because it will make the life of my family and myself better! I'm going to put in the hard work for the life I want! We've already done so much towards this but now it's time to step up again and make some BIG changes!

Who's with me? Who wants to change their life they are living now into the life they dream about?

By the way...Bikini Body Mommy's 7.0 Challenge is FREE! So if you're interested go join and help me stay accountable!

Thank A Farmer

Do you ever stay at home and avoid going out on cold days? I still do this but I was much more successful at it before we moved to our farm. Currently our farm isn't much. We have about 30 chickens and 2 pigs and 3 dogs. But every morning and evening I have to go out no matter the weather and feed and check on our animals. If you have paid attention to the weather here in the south we are getting some nasty cold weather. Here in Oklahoma we have avoided that ice that Texas is getting but it's still been close to zero degrees when I've had to be outside.  For my farm it only takes me about 10 minutes to quickly feed and water the animals as long as they don't need any special attention. But this week we happen to be 'farm sitting'. So after I take care of our animals I have to drive to our friends farm and take care of their livestock. They have many more animals and many more chores.  Yesterday I dressed warm even though it was below zero when you...

One Excuse Day

When starting this 90 workout challenge offered free from Bikini Body Mommy I decided that I needed to make some changes and really think through how I was going to accomplish this without giving up or letting life get in the way. Basically I've had too many excuses in the past and have failed to reach any of my health goals because of it. The difference this time is I'm not expecting 100% perfection from myself this time around. I'm giving myself one excuse day each week to skip my workout without guilt or self-shaming. Last week it was Saturday. And this week it is today. I'm doing this because I can't except myself to change overnight into this workout health nut machine overnight. It's not possible to change that fast. I'm already making several changes along with adding workouts to my daily life I can't except to achieve everything I want right now. By doing this I have let the weight of being perfect fall off my shoulders so I can keep goin...
