My poor boys have been sick for close to a week now and of course it's in the beginning of my Bikini Body Mommy Challenge and I've actually been doing really well with staying healthy. This is exactly what has thrown me off in the past and then I seem to never start again. This time I'm going to stay healthy through sickness! This is how...
- I'm still going to the gym in the early morning. Even though I'm up half the night with the boys and sleeping on an uncomfortable mattress in the boys room I'm making it a priority to still hit the gym. When I get back I go back to sleep in mom sleep mode where I'm half awake so I can keep track of the boys once their awake but still get a little more rest. Since they are sick they are watching movies anyway.
- Still trying to eat healthy. Since I'm not taking my boys to the store when they are coughing so much. I'm stuck eating what's in the house. We don't have much that sounds good which means I'm not eating a lot. I have been to the store to get some fresh fruits and veggies but it's just a quick trip in the short time my hubby is home and awake. He's working loooooong hours.
- Getting plenty of fluids and On Guard. I'm trying to avoid getting sick myself which is probably a slim chance but with exercise, fluids, and On Guard I'm hoping that it stays away.
- Last I'm getting plenty of cuddles with my boys. I know that soon they will be big and even though they will still want me to care for them when they are older they will not want to sit and cuddle with mommy so I'm enjoying this sickness coming through my house and letting my boys snuggle up and watch movies and listen to stories!
