I Need a Nudge

This article, entitled I Need a Nudge : Go Green Get Fit comes from Amanda Hearn at The Eco-Friendly Family.

I’ve been doing well watching what I eat, and I haven’t gained any weight, though I suppose I am gaining muscle tone too, which is good. I also feel slightly less motivated this past week. I think that definitely relates to my ability to get out of the house. It seems that staying home causes me to gradually become less active. I did a bunch of cleaning and organizing last week, but I never really left the house and now I just feel like curling up to nap.

Amanda is a wife and mother of three who enjoys sharing her thoughts on eco-friendly things. Her hope is that by writing her blog - doing reviews, giveaways and other informative posts - it helps people looking to become green and easily find what will work for them.

Since my last week was entirely uneventful, my goal is to get off my duff this week and go do something! I think I’ll kick it off with some grocery shopping this afternoon. It’s not crazy fun, but it will most likely be by myself and I can sneak in some extra paces by parking far from the store (easy step!). I also hope to get the kids to the park and spend a little more time walking in the evenings this week. Here’s hoping!

In addition to getting off my bum, I would like to make more meals. I have been lacking serious motivation and need to get into the swing of things again. I’ve been loading up on fruits, which I need to do more of because my three little monsters devour it and I’m left with zilch, but I love food, so I need to add in some fun and flavor. Plus, despite the lack of hours I spend in my kitchen, I really do enjoy cooking.

What motivates you? And if you have a favorite healthy dinner recipe I’d love to try it out, please link it in the comments!
