And going to the gym last night was important to me.
Even though I was suffering through a migraine, I got myself off the couch, got dressed and headed out to the gym with the hubby.
It was hard but I made myself a promise that I was going to get myself in better shape this year and even though my head felt like it was about to fall off my neck, I had to do it for myself.
Thankfully it was a cardio night and I didn't do anything too hectic.
I was so happy that I was off on Monday. I was able to hang out at home during the day with my two loves.
But on Monday night was a totally different story though! LOL!!
Liz, the hubby and I went to the gym and really killed it! We worked on our legs and did our squats!
Check out the way that we did our squats:

We went to Target and Mariano's afterwards to introduce Liz to the store - which she loved it - and then went home. I was exhausted when we got home but I helped the hubby put together breakfast and lunch for us and finally got to bed around midnight.
Sunday was a night day... I was able to spend the WHOLE day with my two loves. It was so lovely.
Watching movies and hanging out. I was able to take a nap with the munchkin even! Something that I usually don't get to do at all. LOL!
The hubby cooked a fantastic dinner and we hung out a little with my dad while he watched a couple of football games with us.
Saturday was just a day of running some errands during the day and hanging out at home with the hubby and princess. We ordered in food and just watched movies... it was a great evening with them both.
Friday night was a total loss for me. These damn migraines are really killing my goal of hitting the gym and getting fit. This migraine on Friday really killed me. I had to go to sleep after I got home from work, after I shot myself up with some migraine medication that my wonderful sister-in-law gave me to try out for my migraines.
Okay... let me start with this: not only was I suffering from a migraine, I tried out this medication to only make it worse at the beginning.
The medication that I got was a sample... and it was a needle-less medication. So I didn't know how the medication was going to get into my system.
So when I finally got it working, it was TERRIBLE!!!! Not only was the initial shock of the blast of air coming out of the container LOUD, it broke open my skin, made me bleed and even made my migraine worse! OMG! I thought that I was going to just pass out because of the adrenaline rush that came straight to my head and made it pound harder than I ever thought possible.
Thankfully the hubby was home and I was able to get in a nap - but unfortunately I wasn't able to make it to the gym with Liz and the trainer that was going to help us out.
I've made a commitment that this is going to be my year to get fit and no matter what, I have to do this for myself.
I can't back down now because I am on a roll!
A fair bit closer is better than not being close at all.
And as I was once told, starting is better than being on the couch doing nothing at all.
