Operation Get FIT week 26-31


OPERATION GET FIT!!!!!!
A 52 Week fitness journey
Week 15 went down the toilet lol



WEEK 26

Mon- still sick...at about 80%

Tues-  you know what....lets just call this a bye week. Bye week!

Sat-
I've made my decision.
I'm gonna do it. I'm just going to suck it up, be a mad man and do it! I'm talking meal prep, 3 meals a day, 2 snacks, aim for clean healthy eating, proper portions, exercise 5 days a week. JUST DO IT ALREADY!!! I have alll the salmon in the fridge so why the heck not! I forreals am just tired of being fat, feeling blubbery, and my entire mid range (waist/stomach area) is really killing me, especially when I have to get dressed every day. UGHhhhh.....

 WEEK 27

Today is August 1st.  It's a new week, new month.  After the past few weeks of destroying everything I've been trying to do, I've decided to recommit myself to....

  1. working out 5 days out of the week
  2. PUSH MYSELF each time!!!!
  3. staying accountable- blogging and msging the family
  4. eating healthy
    • 3 meals, 2 snacks
    • treat day is Sunday
    • proper portions
    • meal prepping
    • no juice or soda, easy on the milk and dairy
    • water water water
  5. If circumstances prohibit me from eating healthy (like we are invited to someone's bbq, or party, or whatever) do my best to eat healthy and proper portions
  6. the ultimate goal is just to find that balance so that I'm not hating my "diet" but still being reasonable and making good choices and getting FITabulous!
ALRIGHT WEEK!!!! YOU GONNA GET IT!!!!!

Mon- weigh in--- 191 lbs. workout- leg day. nuff said. #sorelegstomorrow

Tues- zumba

 Wed- rest. my legs cannot even handle right now.

 Thurs- didn't get in a workout. Wanted to punch myself because I was sooooo on a roll this week. BUT it's ok. I had quite a tedious to do list and completed everything!!!! Not to mention I got a job interview woohoo! and I have a test I have to take for a USPS job I'm also applying for. So no I didn't get my workout in, but I did have a very productive day. aaannnd I did get up and out and about. 

 Fri- started doing some core work.....at home. Which means I didn't get a good workout. Kids crawling under me, climbing on top of me, asking me questions, hooiiiiiiii....mentally its more exhausting. So I stopped (because I wanted to lock all the kids in their room...don't worry I didn't) and took the kids outside and we played. The struggle is surreal. 

 I swear I try to wake up early and get my workouts done then, but since the kids are asleep I end up getting things done like cleaning, family finances, job hunting/filling out applications, planning for Mom's retirement party......but mostly laundry and dishes hahha. anyways..I'm venting/ranting/complaining/justifying/explaaaaiinnning it/ whatever you want to call it.
p.s.  My eating has been ok portion wise. We haven't done any grocery shopping sooooo our meals aren't always balanced or completely healthy...but we do what we can...beggars can't be choosers lol #brokepeopleproblems


 Sat- got about 15 mins of zumba in until baby started crying....went another two minutes before she was screaming her head off...switched to a "baby and mommy" workout lol she loved it!...that lasted about 10 minutes before she was happy again..then i set her down on the floor again and finished my zumba ...wanted to do weights but by then it was kaele and moe time for the two littles. 

WEEK 28

 Mon- what happened here?

Tue- and here?

Wed- it's already Wednesday? well umm...ok. i weighed in this morning at home 185lbs!! but i'm not fully convinced. I still question the accuracy of our home scale. So we'll see if I'm still celebrating after I step on the gym scale.

Sat- 
RECAP-----wow so that DE-escalated real quick!!! hahah What happened to all the hype? LOL I was sooooo pumped and then that very week I was already going downhill hooiiiiiiiii how quick I am to get dedicated and re-committed and then boom kananz cannot even hang! That's what Monday's are for yeah!!??!?! hahahah Well on the bright side, we've finally gone food shopping. We're a bit more excited to eat healthy. 
*Raises up a cup of non fat, zero carbs, sugar free, non gmo, gluten free, vegan ice water*
 "Here's to everyone who is struggling to stay on the fit train!!!!"

Start the year off with two volleyball tournaments for Leila. The picture below is of her and Isa, the only 14-year-olds on their U16 team.  Fires are destroying parts of California, the Palisade area experiencing the worst of it. Texas and some of the southern states are experiencing some of the worst snow/ice conditions. TikTok is on the verge of being banned, President Trump is continuously passing executive orders that are sending people into panic.  Saleima made a list of the disasters and warned us that Jesus was on His way.  Sefa moved up to the Teachers quorum and was ordained by his Dad, Uncle Dennis, and Uncle Ben. He's growing so quickly and I love seeing his growth. They have a great group of young men. I love that they are old enough to plan activities, including attending the temple to do Baptism.  Sefa's also starting U15 7v7 pylons with coach Matt Manuma. He had made the decision to not be held back for football. It's a common practice here in Utah, a...

Being Prepared For These Times

Auuuu that title sounds like I'm trying to write a General Conference talk or something hahaha. Probably still on the GC vibe from the beginning of the month lol. Anyways... So this pandemic that's going on, it's been something else! It has put the whole world on lock down. So many lives have been affected. I've written quite a bit in my journal, but I wanted to make sure to write about how the Lord has prepared our family specifically for this time. Looking back just in February and March, we can easily see how the Lord had orchestrated parts of our lives.  In February Aljay secured an art collector who commissioned several art pieces. His deposit was the cushion that brought a sense of financial security when we entered this lock-down life.  Towards the end of February, my bosses had heard about school closures in Seattle and decided that we should have a plan in place for our advisers to work remotely in case the schools had to close. We honestly didn...

2025 February

Leila - Volleyball and more Volleyball  Leila had two tournaments in February. This club season has challenged her in a good way. She wants to play the outside hitter position but is playing on a 16s team (meaning older girls with more experience) and is sitting in the 3rd spot for out side hitting. To get to the 1 or 2 spot she needs more reps, more practice, and more individual coaching. We're seeing improvements each week, but are planning to set aside money for her to do more 1:1 coaching.  These tournaments are no joke. They are allllll day. 6am - 7pm sometimes. 1-day, 2-day, and sometimes 3-day tourneys. The mental stamina it takes as a parent ahahahahh is a real thing! Trying to say the right things to keep your athlete focused, motivated, and locked in is tough. There are so many things that are over stimulating or compounding: - the non stop sound of whistles and girl's cheering/screaming - the smell of swass in the building that increases as the tournament progresses...
