Okay, so I’m realizing I eat late night snacks out of habit. I was pregnant for just about 2 years straight and always needed to eat something before bed due to really bad upset stomach or I couldn’t sleep. So for two years I formed this habit.
On the way to bed I stood in the kitchen and literally had to fight with my brain to shut up and that I didn’t need it. I’m realizing that this challenge is going to be more mental than anything for me!
As I’ve been getting ready for this challenge over the last few days my oldest daughter has been really interested in the process. My husband measured me, weighed me and found me wanting… to be skinnier. (Bonus points to the people who know the movie reference.) But then every day my Punkin’ get’s up she comes down for breakfast and says, “Are we exercising mommy?” I have a little built in cheerleader.
Who would of thought you could pull strength from a child who is almost 4. I always tell everyone she is my little helper and she is my second set of hands. She has such a strong desire to serve. God has been so good to me by giving me this little joy.
Night all!
