As a 39(uggghh) yr old single mother of a 17 yr old, 11 yr old and 4 yr old, my life is total chaos!!!  Lately it seems to be getting worse and I can not find any time for myself to workout.  I have not been to the gym in over a week!!!  I know alot of this is because of ball season and we are at the ball park almost every night with either a game or practice.  I just cant seem to find time for everything. My diet has suffered to and I just cant seem to get back on track.  I know I have set an ultimate goal by 40 and I can slowly feel it slipping away.  I know kids should come first, but I need me time too……Any tips on what everyone does to make "me" time would be greatly appreciated!!!

The lady who sits next to me at work back in march had the lap band surgery.  She had to go off some of her medicine, she takes literally about 8 different meds,  and started having back issues.  She had to go get some prednisone to help her back since she couldnt take the norm.  The day came for her to have her fill in which makes the stomach smaller and where she can eat less.  She was unable to have the fill in and the dr told her that he didnt think she needed because she was losing about 2.6 lbs a week.  She told him that was just her willpower not the surgery!!!!  Ok so why didnt you use the willpower before?  People kill me…..if its not easy they dont want to do it!!  I have to use willpower everyday to either get my ass to the gym or make sure I dont eat everything in sight. 

Yesterday she went and finally got her fill in and I said, being the smart ass I am, I guess you dont have to use your willpower now….her reply, no, but I still have to eat healthy!!!!Hello!!!!  Couldnt you have done that before you spent the money for major surgery.  Give me hard work and dedication over the easy way any day of the week.  It means so much more when you work for it!!!
