I need to find some energy from somewhere.  I am now working midnights, which i dont mind but when I get up at 1 or 2p I find it hard to find the energy to get to the gym.  When it comes to supplements I have a high tolererance, so what might make some jittery doesnt really do a whole lot to me.  any suggestions to give a little more pep?  Also for some reason over the last few weeks my calves always ache, and if i keep my toes bent a little to much the start to go numb….(yes i am a nurse) but i have no clue why they are both doing that….doesnt make sense!! HELP ME PLEASE…LOL!!

Good Morning everyone!!  Well its snowing…I guess winter is finally coming and so will the winter weight if I dont get my butt in gear!!  Its been a trying few weeks, but i have tried a new thing this week….which is POSITIVE THINKING.  I watched the dvd "the secret" thanksgiving day.  Its about commanding the universe for the things you want.  The funny thing is i about that dvd a year ago and hadnt watched it until TD…..why?  well not quiet sure!!  All I do know is that since i have started thinking in a positive and being grateful for the things i have right now….I have felt so much better.  Its kind of funny really…..who would of thought!! I have pretty much always been a negative thinker,  mostly because of the way my life has been since childhood, but i have learned that as long as i dwell on the past i cant make the future will not be brighter.  So here i am with my positive thoughts knowing that I will be fit and healthy for the rest of my life!! 

Just wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!  Count your blessings and enjoy your day with family and friends!!  I know I have a lot to be thankful for, as my grandpa said just before he passed away last year "EVERYDAY IS A GIFT"!  Be safe if you are traveling!  As for me I will be going out wednesday night with friends and enjoying turkey day with my kids. 

P.S.  Back to my workout tomorrow,  been a long week with my daughter having knee surgery!! I am so bad this week…someone needs to kick me in the butt!!…..lol!!;)

Okay today is the day that i turn 40, and although i think about it and go UGH…..I actually dont feel that old, so i guess that is a good thing.  My daughters got me a massage for my bday…its was wonderful…what good girls i have!!  Ok so now I really need to get my head back in the game, i have been off the last week due to some personal stuff that i let take control of me.  Thank god for good friends on here that check on me and give me the inspiration and push that i need….I am truely greatful!!  I hope everyone has a wonderful weeken…me well i am out with my g/f’s tonight for some fun…woohoo!!

Just wanted to thank everyone for all the tips on getting on the road to healthier me!!  I have had my ups and downs, and eating healthy still remains to be the biggest obstacle for me.  I have to flip flop my eating since i am working midnights now, so that it self can put a hinder on things, since on my days off I eat in the daytime and not the night time.  The workouts are coming….i think i might need to change them up.  My youngest daughter (15) is going to start going to the gym with me now that VB is over for her….So that should be fun!! She is 5′7" and 112….she is beautiful…..I am trying to get her pointed in the right direction.  I wish someone would of did that to me when i was her age…lol!! Keep the suggestions coming for a better me…..I take everything in that you guys tell me!!  Hope everyone is having a great weekend!! MUAH!
