Family first

Sunday morning... I am beat and I have another whole day ahead of me.

This weekend, my efforts in the gym were put to a different kind of test. Perhaps the best one. Helping family move.  Holy Hanna I am sore today!!! 

Friday night I helped my sister-in-law move. When I got there, I found that she counted on me to do the "heavy lifting".  Ya know, I kinda felt like a badass ;).  On Saturday, I woke up and packed my meals so I stayed on track all morning. Go me!   Midway through the day, I skipped out to go train.  (I am pretty sure that has a lot to do with me walking like a horse today.)  Going back move, I picked up Chipotle to eat so I was not tempted by the pizza, cheese fries and regular coke at the new place.  Again...Go me!  The wives were in the house doing odds and ends, grabbing filler stuff in the truck and playing with the baby.  The men are moving the boxes and furniture.  MOMENT OF TRUTH.... I ran down to the truck to help the guys. Not only did I help, I was useful. I kept up and again, my inner badass was doing a cheer. I was of course exhausted but I had the stamina, strength and endurance to move not only my ass up and down steps all day but the living room set as well.

Today is Mother's Day. I am skipping brunch in order to stay on track with my meals today. Mmmmm but some bacon is sounding really good right now. Haha.  This afternoon, I plan on making dinner for the family or at least my mom so that I can keep this momentum going.  Half the battle of eating clean and on plan is exactly that.... having a plan.

A very Happy Birthday to my little brother Luke who turns 30 today.  In two weeks, I will see him for the first time since I think last Mothers Day.  The plan is to go Rock Climbing. How fun, right?

Well, I am off to Bed Bath and Beyond to get myself a juicer. Yup, I am hoping on that bandwagon.  ;)

Happy Mothers Day.
