A day of rest

So Wednesday's are a hard day for me to get to the gym because right after work I have to pick up Xavier, come home and cook dinner and then head to church, so I decide Wed. and Sunday's are days I dont' work out. I see now why it's easy for people to just give up because it feels nice to just relax and not be all sweaty and smelly and look horrible(well that part is about perspective). But I think as much as I would like to stay home tomorrow and cook meals or clean or even just chill and watch tv I realize that all those things got me to here where I am writing and talking about being fat.
 On a good note I will say that even though I am sooooooo tired when I get home from the gym I find I actually get things done that before I would leave until the weekend or when I had more time. It is kind of fascinating to me that even at my size I can workout like I have and then come home and cook and wash dishes and do all the things that before I just didn't feel like doing after 8 hours at work.
 I am excited that every morning I wake up and on the counter where Xavier has made his lunch is a list of the calories in his lunch! I have always worried about his self image but I am hoping that all this will help him make changes now that I didn't do when I was his age. Doing this for both of us has made such an impact on me and I hope and pray with him and everyone's support we will both be successful!!! Thanks again for all the support. We will see if I have the same perspective after the gym tomorrow. I am going to attempt 40 minutes on the elliptical after my weights. Pray that I can accomplish this small goal!
