Struggling to workout

I was on vacation in Utah when I started this blog.  I came home on the 30th. I got one or two workouts in Utah since my last post. And I only worked out twice since I have been home.  It has been a struggle to workout.  Traveling with young kids is exhausting.  I still feel so tired from the trip.  I worked out on Monday--just abs and arms--but I didn't workout yesterday.

I also haven't been eating the best.  I ate Nutella AND chocolate today.  Naughty girl. And then I watched Glee and saw a bunch of skinny girls that I want to look like.  And that made me feel fat so I ate some more Nutella.  I need to be better. I need to make huge changes in my diet.  It is so much harder to actually do though.

Tonight I bucked up and did this BodyRock workout.  I did modify it. I didn't use any weights.  I did the half burpee and jump up. I also modified my push ups. And that inner thigh thing.. yeah it didn't happen.  I did lay on my side and lift my hips and hold for the 30 seconds.  I didn't give 100% tonight but I did a workout. That is a start.

Here are my scores for the burpees and push ups:
half burpee/jump: 7,6,6,5,6,6
1 leg stagger modified push up: 7,7,9,8,9,8

You don't need to spend money to workout.  I do it for free.  I use this free online interval timer and this stopwatch.  I do have some dumbells that I purchased forever ago; just some 10 pound and 25 pound cheapo weights.

Tomorrow is a new day.  I will try to go to bed soon so I am not a zombie in the morning. Then maybe I can actually get a start on my day and get things done.
