November Over?

I must say that I really haven't even had 2 minutes to myself in 16 days now...Literally!!!!

GOALS FOR NOVEMBER...

1. FOOD Choices - back to basics on low carb -- This has been hard for me this past month and I have no idea why...so I'm hoping by going back to basics I can figure it all out again
----------- NOT Good AT ALL this month...I had the intention of getting back to it every morning but my good intentions always seem to fall by the wayside...I haven't really gained any weight but I haven't lost any either...

2. INSANITY - Stick to the program...am a bit worried about boredom -- so am thinking I might add in BODYCOMBAT 3 times a week to spice it up.
----------- This is going GREAT...am actually really loving Round 2...maybe because I know what's going on...Round 1 was just plain hard work...this time round, I can put in a lot more effort...

3. BODYPUMP - 3 days a week
-----------Not finding it hard to stick to this one because...I LOVE BODYPUMP!!!

4. BLOG at least 4 times a week -- for the sanity of it all
-----------I always think this will be an easy goal and it always tends to be the hardest one...I was horrible at this again this month...but I will keep trying...

I had Dilyn home for 2 weeks this month...her operation went well but she is still whiny and clingy and just not getting better so I took her to the Doc and found out she has ear infections...well...so all is getting better...her talking is still wonky but it's getting better.I am Physically and mentally drained....so tired all the time. This has been such a hard week to even have the energy to complete my workouts...

Week 1...Nov. Goals...

GOALS FOR NOVEMBER...

1. FOOD Choices - back to basics on low carb -- This has been hard for me this past month and I have no idea why...so I'm hoping by going back to basics I can figure it all out again
----------- They were good this

2. INSANITY - Stick to the program...am a bit worried about boredom -- so am thinking I might add in BODYCOMBAT 3 times a week to spice it up.
----------- Have stuck with it even though I found out I will have to restart it on the 7th...going to see if they would consider starting on the 6th because the first day on the program is a rest day(totally weird) but I would love the rest days to land on Sundays...

3. BODYPUMP - 3 days a week
------------ Only made it twice this week...having trouble balancing my time...

4. BLOG at least 4 times a week -- for the sanity of it all
------------ Well If I count my Nov goal blog and this one...

So today is our family B-Day party for Devyn and Dilyn...everyone coming over...like the family ones because it's not such a big deal on the clean house thing...it's usually pretty clean(I am a Flybaby) and it's pretty organized but it seems like I'm always picking up after the kids and getting tired of it...

So NEW goal for the week....

I'm getting after my kids to put away and pick up after themselves...their not little anymore and it's really getting on my nerves....

NOVEMBER -- GOALS!!!!

This year has gone so fast...October ended in a blink...so November it is...I may be crazy but have started ROUND 2 on INSANITY. Have joined in a 60 day challenge with my Beachbody coach and few others on Facebook...should be interesting...

That should take me through November with INSANITY up until the new year...I actually did miss my time with Shaun T -- we were just starting the love/hate relationship when it ended without a word...so I guess it's time to see where I stand with him

Hit 40 lbs lost mark...

I'm really bad at keeping my blog up to date....need to work on that...so a little catch up in order...

Hit my 40 lbs lost mark on Sept 30 -- but only .6 since then.
Finished my INSANITY program on Oct 15/11
Weigh in as of Oct 25/11 - 138.2

Another stressful week on the home front. Dilyn's surgery got canceled and threw a bit of loop into things...we had 2 volleyball tournaments - 9 games on Saturday alone...It was CRAZY...Devyn got a silver medal...and we were only running a little late to her soccer game...poor Dilyn though was so stir crazy by the time we got there she wouldn't sit still...up and down the bleachers...up and down the hallways...everyone was just staring...I finally stood up and told everyone that shes been sitting for 4 hours through volleyball games and this is like total freedom to her...everyone just nodded and left her alone...like everyone hasn't been there at one time or another...

We were supposed to go to Donovan's Scout Halloween Party on Wednesday but we never made it...Donovan failed another test...we had already pulled all electronics and TV...their was nothing else to do. Plus I found out today that he has a math test tomorrow...grrrrr

Anyway...the girls and I did facials and played Wipeout 2 on the Kinect for an hour and half and it Wiped Me OUT...

Today's is Devyn's 11th Birthday...but we celebrated yesterday because she is having a sleepover at her friends house tonight...we had her party 2 weeks ago because our weekends are fully booked until mid November...ACK!!!!

Tuesday...feels like Monday!!!

All the kids are back in school...hubbies in Calgary till tomorrow night...then Vancouver on Friday...then Montreal on Sunday till next Wednesday...

It's going to be a couple crazy weeks...

BLC 17 starts tomorrow...go Mighty Mocha Hunters...I can already tell it's going to be a blast...

The Cool Carrots are doing ...

I still have some tracking to post for 2 more challenges BUT I am getting a blog done...that's a bonus...

Insanity Day 24 DONE - have I mentioned how much I HATE PLYO!!!!!
Spin class DONE!!
Cycling to and from the gym DONE!!

Doing BODYPUMP tonight for my strength training...still working on how to track it...

It really feels like a Monday with me behind on everything as usual...still need to get my menu finished, make a shopping list but first freezer inventory...uuuhhhgggg!!!

August Wrap -up!!!!!

I keep losing track of my days...it seems they just keep running together. Friday already...

Day 13 of Insanity done...Pure cardio - 60 minutes...uuuhhhggg - BUT 2 days of REST now

It was a pretty good week, busy but good...4 dentist appointments, 2 physicals, a new pink cast, and a sleep apnea test all done...plus getting a 5 year old to pee in a cup...she couldn't stop laughing so I'm sure you all know how that went

Weaknesses - tracking my food...I just can't seem to get back into it. Am doing good today though

Strength - I am going with...my ability to deal with my schedule being thrown into turmoil...I usually don't deal well with that...Proud of myself


Really liked getting points for spending time with my family...because otherwise I would have just ignored them like that's even possible!!!

So I did accomplish a couple of my goals...SORT OF..

1. I did an advanced yoga class rather then and advanced spin class...
2. I am organized for back to school...I know what I need to still buy...that's something...

Goals for the rest of September challenge:

1. Track all my food
2. Take an advanced spin class
3. Get my household organizer re-organized for back to school...
4. Redo my whiteboard with all the kids chores...

All in all a great week and here's hoping for an weigh in on Monday
