Here Comes Some Motivation

So, about a week ago, I wrote an amazing post.  It was all about throwing myself a huge pity party, how my husband and I work our asses off (I wish literally) and have only an ever-increasing amount of debt to show for it.  I wrote about motivation (wanting to be healthy for my children and husband)  and needing a swift kick in the ass to make me exercise.  It was funny.  I liked my post.  I hit post and this website sent me a little message about an error on their part and something about apologies.  Really?!?!?!  All I saw was “Nice job pouring out your heart in such a witty way. Now fuck you….it’s gone!  So, I took a little break.

I’m back, as is my period 

I should be happy about my angry functioning uterus.  I recently joined a group on Facebook for women with PCOS.  As bad as I think I have it, there are so many women suffering way worse than I am. I have been reading story after story about couples trying to conceive a child for 5, 10, 20 years.  Stories of miscarriages, surgeries, horrible doctors, and non-supportive family. I have been blessed.  I have two amazing, miracle children, an extremely understanding family, and I live so close to the most amazing hospitals/doctors in the world.

Some of the women in this Facebook group have joined together for a 90 day challenge to work on their minds, bodies, and lifestyles.  Since I started this blog for the same reasons, I was eager to join, and learn from and rely on other women dealing with similar issues.  The first task was to create a motivational board.  Here’s mine: (my real board has 1 different picture on it. But, that picture cannot be shared until after Halloween out of respect for my husband’s wish! I’ll switch this board on a later date.)

I am back to tracking my food.  This week my goal is to track some exercise besides chasing middle school children around the hallways, while bobbing, weaving, and ducking from the random objects hurled at my head every day.

Have an inspired week!
