Stress Level -
All time high this week. The kids were sick with allergies which means I can't leave them at the child watch area while I go to my classes. It also means zero sleep because they are up at all hours of the night. Also, I'm at the doctor's office waiting and waiting and let's not forget the pharmacy where we go to wait some more. On Tuesday I finally made the decision to let go of my online store Happy Panda. It's been a tough week. My plan of getting more than workout running in didn't happen. I'm just exhausted. The instructor for our Beach Body boot camp is leaving. This is the 3rd trainer that I have worked with that has had to leave the YMCA. I was really hoping to work more with her because she has an awesome spin class. When I finally did make it back for a work out it was so horrible! It felt like I had never worked out all. It was like starting from the beginning. Ugh!

The UP side -

There has to be one! I'm really trying to find one but I'm quickly losing motivation. Oh wait! I almost forgot...

I cleaned out my closet and this is what I have left. This is my wardrobe people. Yes, I'm serious. Those are my jeans, dress shirts, t-shirts, collared shirts, dresses and work out t-shirts. rofl....This is my upside. It's my reminder that regardless of what happens I'm still working on an overall goal and I MUST add to my wardrobe. It's really hard when your in weight transition to add anything but it must be done. What is left here on this rack is either too big or too small, very few of these items have a good fit at all. I'm still looking forward to that run June 19th.

I'm looking forward to reading how the rest of my "sistas" did this week.
And this is a little GLEE inspiration for all of this week!

I'm always hunting workout music which you will find in my DJ Booth at Blip.fm. You can search the #mamavation hashtag or #workouttunes to see my lists. If you have any music suggestions leave them in the comment section!
