Summer is literally around the corner and i know none of us have kept that New Years Resolution that we make EVERY year!! - We are going to eat healthy or start going to the gym... blah blah blahhhhh. It’s like why are we even still telling ourselves that same lie, right?
We are always too busy for this or too busy for that to ever do anything. So my question to you (and myself) is IF we are always to busy for things what are we really doing lol. Read that again if you didn’t catch it!
Let’s stop making excuses and just DO IT ( No I’m not sponsored by Nike lol but wishful thinking). I want to challenge all of you moms to a #2WeekMomChallenge!
No carbs or sugars
Bread
pasta
rice
cookies
candy
soda
Only meat, baked NOT fried and green vegetables. If your families are anything like mine it’s hard to be on a diet because they like to snack daily! I am going to meal prep my food on Sunday and Wed that way i won’t have to make 2 meals a night! Oh and you can not forget to drink plenty of water, i like to add lemons, cucumber and mint leaves. Sometimes all together but mostly apart. What helps me is using an empty milk carton and let it sit over night in the fridge. It’s cost effective but may take some time every night!! If you don’t have the time Smart Water has bottles of flavored water that is actually pretty good and taste just about the same as using lemons!!
Now, i know making it to the gym is not easy for a lot of us but these two weeks we will not let it affect us! So here are some things to try!
1. During the morning while your kids are getting ready for school do 3 sets of 20 crunches and 3 sets of 20 squats
2. If you have stairs try running up and down them for 5 mins (good to get your heart rate going), wake up 10 minutes earlier than normal if you have too
3. While sitting at your desk every hour do a different workout: squats, side crunch: sit straight up with arms down by your side and bend down one side at a time as if you’re going to touch the floor, possibly do jumping jacks
4. Watching tv or on the floor with the kids do 2 sets of 20 donkey kicks each leg
5.Do 3 sets of 15 wall push ups before getting dressed
This may not be equivalent to going to the gym but with your new diet it will help you get your body active and heart rate pumping! We are in this together so let’s be each other’s support system! I do not mind being anyone’s accountability partner! Feel free to comment, email or dm with questions, concerns or just to be your cheerleader!
Once we’ve hit 2 weeks i know we can keep going! Let’s take pics of before and after (for ourselves of course). And cheer each other on! Feel free to post pics and tag me @momohhmy during your process and #2WeekMomChallenge so we can keep up with each other..
