Refreshing Break

As you know I have MIA and I needed time to take a step back and just find myself. I know that sounds crazy but I have lost myself in being a wife, mom, maid, banker, nurse, taxi driver, chef, personal shopper, etc. I just felt so overwhelmed and wanted to just stay home crawl in the bed and become a hermit.
                                                   This is how I looked before my break
Taking time out and stepping back from everything has been so refreshing. While I finally had time to think during this period it hit me that September I was going to officially hit the OLD club I will be the dirty 30. Yes I think 30 is old because to me it is. When people say you are only as old as you feel I want there nose to grow...you know you don't feel 20 when you're 30 so I'm calling BS. Please when I was 20 I could stay up all nite, eat as much junk as I wanted and not gain a pound, run on 3 hours of sleep and now I hit the 7oclock movie because I will fall asleep in the late one.
I signed up for weight watchers 3 months ago and didn't enter a single thing and did it so as I am going into my 30s I didn't want to go into it with a bad attitude and negative Nancy mind set. So I told myself I am going to go crazy and do stuff I don't do to make my life less stress, healthier, and most importantly happy. I am so happy fulfilled with being a wife and mom but when it comes to ME I am just so over it.
 I decided to do something about it......
1. slow my kids schedules down
2. take time to myself and not feel guilty {that part was easy to do}
3. find a stress relief
4. loose this 15 pounds that I have gained
5. will power to stick with it
I always come to this once a year but I have got to stick with it or else you will me my blog from the 7th floor of the crazy house.


                         Now I feel like I'm working more towards looking like this......
