So I survived the holidays

For us Christmas is a series of food events.  It began on Christmas Day, then we celebrated Christmas day after because that's when we had all the kids.  Then New Years Eve...then New Years Day which is a potluck thing with my mom's side of the family.

I occasionally found myself going back on shakes here and there just to get through the insanity.  I have found that too many choices really does not work for me.  Just tell me what to eat and I'll do fine!  I'm on shakes just to do some damage control until my next weigh in (Wednesday night).  Thursday I have all of my meals pre-planned for the week, no more than 1200 calories per day.

Goals for this year...stay in a size 10.  No weight goal, just a size.  My resolutions were:  Stay in a size 10, continue to trust more, listen more, be more active, think about her (my mom) everyday.  I also want to add keeping up with the house work unfortunately it didn't make it to my sealed list, but it's on here so I'll resolve to do it!

Trust more was a continuation of last year.  I trust hubby completely, but I don't trust people to do what they say they will do, or what I think they SHOULD do.  An example I don't trust my kids to pick up after themselves so I clean up after them before they have an opportunity.

I'm going to set goals for the month too.  For January I have 2 goals.  1.  Go to the gym or walk around the lake/bay 15 times this month.  2.  Ride over 100 miles on my bike that goes no where.  I wanted to set attainable goals that were positive.  Last night I rode 11 miles and this evening I went to the gym for my "muscle up" class.  The instructor asked "who's coming back for the turbo kick class" I thought about it, but I needed to get son fed and I needed to get a shake in me or I was gonna pass out!  I'm bummed now that I didn't because my friend's birthday is tomorrow so I'm going to miss my workout tomorrow night at the gym.  I could've counted that as double!

So that's whats going on with me.  How about you?!  Did your son get his present?
