I’m combining Fat Chick posts this week since I missed last week. I suck.
I’m still struggling with trying to get exercise and eating right into a schedule that seems to be all consuming. I’m getting there, but it’s not easy.
I think I am coming around to the inevitable conclusion that I’m going to have to exercise in the morning. I really, really, really don’t want to do that, but I can’t see away around it. I am not a morning person at all, and I have tried to work out in the morning in the past without much success. I bought into that whole line of thinking that it is a great way to start the day! If you exercise at 5:00 a.m. you’ll feel fabulous all day long!! I tried that, and all it did was make me a raging bitch all day long. I just don’t have the gene that makes people fabulous at 5:00 a.m. Unless it’s 5:00 a.m. and I’m still up, then I’m fabulous.
The kids have started soccer, we’re down to one car again, my work hours have increased, I have two parties to plan and I’m getting defeated. I ate crappy all weekend and I haven’t exercised as much as I should. I really need to get it together. This is what the backslide feels like. I haven’t even had time to read or write blogs lately, and that’s something I actually like to do. Life is too much and stressing me out.
I can’t even think of anything else to write. I’ve lost two pounds in two weeks. I have 36 more pounds to go. Blah.

I hate to work out in the morning also but if I don't life gets in the way. So I convince myself that I'm not only doing this for myself but for my family because I'll live longer. Self sacrifice works for me.
I've read multiple articles that state you should work out when your 'optimal' time of day is. So if you're a morning person, work out in the morning. If you're a night person, you should work out then.
So, maybe you should stay up til 5am and THEN work out?
I like Keely's idea, stay up all night! I'm with you though. I tried getting up early to do exercise and failed miserable. I need coffee in the morning (which I also failed at giving up) or you really really don't want to be near me.
But if you need someone to shake you at 5 am let me know. Based upon where you live it's mid afternoon for me and I can come over to your blog and harass you :)
2 lbs down, hey, that's not a small thing! That's great!
you are still my hasay hero.
If you ate crappy, didn't exercise and you're down 2 pounds? Girl, that's reason to celebrate!
Still sounds great to me too! I ate crappy and didn't exercise and I won't even TELL you what happened to me!
No one should be fabulous at 5am Thta' just wrong.
Sigh. I'm eating 2pds per snack...
Stay motivated. You can do it.
I'm in a slump too and feel completely crappy. I have to fit into a nightmare of a bridesmaid dress in two months but can't seem to stop eating and sitting. I hope you find a workout routine that works. I can't do the 5am thing either!
Hilarious post, good for you for the weight loss! Small victories every day...
