Let me explain the title for those of you that are not married to a hot computer nerd... "Less QQ" basically means less complaining (the QQ looks like tears coming out of eyes), and "more Pew Pew" means more action (imagine the sound of a 5 year old shooting a toy gun).
I have been doing a lot of QQing this week! Working out and sticking to a healthy diet has been tough. I still have not touched wheat. Oh how I miss my sour dough bread! But my hunger has forced me to get creative with food. I found some really fun snacks and meals that are low-fat, low carb, healthy and super yummy!
Shin splints and issues with my knees arose after pushing it too hard with running, jumping-jacks, high knees and sprints. However, continuing with full force is CRUCIAL if I want to win. I took a break from those activities and should be all ready to jump back into the torture- I mean FUN! I don't have any more excuses! I did lots of walking, arms and hiking this week. There was also one day (Sunday) that I "planned" on working out... never happened! Funny how easy it is to stick to your schedule when you have a lunch date with a friend, yet it is so easy to bail on yourself when it comes to working out. I am realizing what works for me is to get it done first thing in the morning. Stop hitting snooze and go hit the gym!
I only lost 3 lbs. Boy do I need to step it up! I feel much better though, and I fit into a pair of pre-pregnancy jeans... if I suck it in! I wish I could suck my butt in. Anyways... on that note! Time to go burn some of this booty off!
This is Eden helping me with my measurements. What would I do without her?
READY TO START A NEW!
Life got in the way of my sexy figure! At least that’s my excuse. After nearly four years of wonderful marriage and one beautiful child, I’ve discovered that I’ve developed a private hatred for scales and mirrors alike. I’ve had enough of life getting in the way, and it’s time to get back into the best shape of my life! T-minus 60 pounds to go!
Let me start off by saying, I am blessed. Andrew is my loving husband, and we have a beautiful little one named Eden. I am able to stay at home with Eden while Andrew is able to work from home. We love to sit and watch movies or play video games while eating candy and pizza on our time off. Soda is something we drink daily. Taco Bell is a place we visit 2 or more times a week. My name is Christy Lowen, and I am ready to start a new.
As a mother, I set the path for my daughter. Whether it is a path to gluttony and laziness or one to a healthy and Godly lifestyle, it is my choice. As a wife, it’s my job to be and feel sexy for my husband!
