"I'm gonna motha-effing do shit" list



Get it girl!
Looks sooo fun!
It's that time of year again. The time where we get to reflect on the past year, realize that we've gotten a lot fatter than we thought and we make our resolution to stop being so fat. If I wasn't so fat, I obviously wouldn't be sitting here pondering what my resolution is going to be. If I had followed through on all my resolutions, I'd be the skinniest bitch around and trying to figure out which bikini I'm going to be wearing this summer. Resolutions are made to be broken, and I am the Queen of breaking them. So this year I've decided to make an "I'm gonna motha-effing do shit" list. It goes a little something like this. 1. Legit try to stop being a fat ass. Stop eating good for a week and then fall off the fat wagon. 2. Eat clean. People who eat clean are healthy and hot. 3. Yoga. I love yoga even tho it's probably not the nicest thing to watch. I apologize if you have images of me in the downward dog position, it's my goal to make that look less frightening. 4. Colour Run. There's a 5K colour run in Montreal in August. Google it, seriously. It looks crazy fun. I'm paying for it in January so I have to do it. There's no way I'm wasting $40! There's a few other things unrelated, skydive, tattooes and all that jazz but I really need to focus on the first 4.
This holiday season has been absolutely dreadful in the healthy eating department. Between Starbucks holiday drinks (Caramel Brulee make me wanna punch a nun they're so good), giant turkeys with gravy and baking; I got a wee bit more fat than my last blog. Seriously though, Santa didn't give me willpower for Christmas and tis' the season to be jolly. Jolly=fat fyi. So now, I get to head to the gym with all the other people who decided to change their New Years resolution to getting fit and annoy the regulars there. Hopefully I can keep going to the gym in February and beyond. I'm taking bets for when I'll fall off the wagon and rethink my game plan. I give it 2 weeks....lol

Damn you cupcakes!

Meal prepping like a boss!
It's been a good week! Kind of. I've been making a lot of random yummy healthy food. A couple of smoothies for breakfast (strawberry, banana, Greek yogurt and a bit of orange juice), some healthy cookies, prepped all my dinners for the week in one night. I've been on the train to healthy land. And then I made cupcakes. Damn it. Things were going splendid. The scale even said I lost five pounds (in which I think it's a big fat liar). When I bake things for people, I feel the need to taste it to make sure that everything is good. I make a few extra cupcakes and if they taste good, I go ahead and decorate the shit out of them. Well, when you're changing your eating habits and cupcakes are baked, I literally turn into the "fat kid that loves cake". Side note: they were really good, all 3 of them....*sigh*. Okay, so note to self, until I have a wee bit more willpower, refrain from baking or hire someone to throw rocks at me when I go to eat them.

Quinoa....really good!
I've never been one to eat breakfast but I have been trying to stay pretty consistent in eating it. The passed couple of days I've been pretty busy in the morning and missed breakfast. By like 11am, I'm starving! I'm definitely going to need either prep my breakfasts as well as my dinners or make sure I have the time to eat them. I feel that if I miss breakfast, by lunchtime I'd be willing to eat anything that's healthy or coated in grease or sugar. Most of the time, grease and sugar win.
Healthy cookies!! what what!
I haven't had a chance to get to the gym at all this week. I gotta try for sure this week. Carter's teething and sick (again) so there's not much sleep happening. Hayden and Jaedyn are coughing up lungs and Matt's work hours have been pretty scattered so I haven't had time to squeeze any gym time in. Must try next week seeing as how I have about 10 extra pounds of cupcakes to work off....ugh...
