Getting back on Track!!

******** Updated -Group is full!!! Thank you for all the interest!!**********************


Friday was a horrible day my friends. Just plain horrible.
I am still emotionally recovering from it, but it was just one of those days where everything is like "Nope Candra, not Today".
I won't go into details but it pretty much ended with me not doing my run and crying in my bedroom while my husband took the kids outside to play.
Ugh.
Do you ever have those days where you swear you must either be pregnant or have something medically wrong with your hormones?
I cried in Wal-mart
I cried LISTEING to Frozen songs.
I cried doing laundry.
I also ate. Everything.

We had a joint birthday party for my kids Saturday and I ate all day including about 10 cupcakes.


Then Sunday Mabel and I ran the Color Me Rad race (more about that tomorrow), went to a birthday party and got home late so we ordered pizza.


Needless to say I am way off track.

I have done so many 30 day challenges, some of which I loved and some of which I hated. I recently forced Alicia from Brew Mama to do a 30 day challenge with me and we both loved it. After we were done with threw around the idea of starting our own 30 day challenges.
We love helping people.
We know that above eating right and working out what works for us is
Support.
I need someone to text and be like "Why shouldn't I eat this donut and wash it down with Dr.Pepper".
I also need accountablitiy. I need to know I'm going to have to report back. Otherwise I totally have the whole  "no one will know" mentalitiy.

Long story short, Alicia and I have been working pretty hard for the last month to put together a 30 day challenge. We would love to start running these every month, but first we are going to do a trail run.


We are looking for 6 people who are willing to give it a go with us for the month of May. We are by no means healthy professionals, we only know what works for us and how to be supportive.

We plan on having daily interaction, recipies, workout advice, and one on one hand holding. We want to make sure you that you are getting what YOU SPECIFICALLY need out of this.

Since this is a trail run we are also looking for people who are willing to give us lots of feedback. Tell us what you loved tell us what you hated, what you wanted more of and what you could have done without.

This trial run is 100% free. We don't use products so we won't be pushing them!
The group is on Facebook so the first 6 people to join are in like flynn.
Here is the link!
Ready for May Mamas

  5. I think we all have days like this! I like to flop facedown on the bed and have a good cry- then EAT ALL THE THINGS! My boo thang seems to have a radar for when this will happen adn does not bitch at all that we are having fast food junk of some sort for dinner.

  6. Candra, sorry to hear you had a rough go of it this weekend! I guess the trick is do you keep spiralling downhill or put on your big girl panites and get on with it!

    I hope you found those panties!
