Day 24!

I am so proud that I have almost made it the 30 days of the shred! It hasn't just been a physical journey it is most assuredly a mental battle, too. A 30 day every. Single. Day. Commitment is actually tough. I've had my days of just not having my head in the game, I've had my super sore days, super busy days, but I have a great support system! I think that has been the key. My sweet husband has cheered me on every night, gently asked when I'm hanging with Jillian? On the handful of nights where I wasn't 'in it' he's told me I can do it. I also joined a challenge on fb- that group is awesome! All these women fighting to stay in the game, too. Last but never least my friends have pushed me - the accountability I set up by sending my sweaty face to a friend seems to have made all the difference.

Last night - night 24, I was going to skip and do it this morning. I got a text from a friend who just got the shred, who wanted to know what I was doing, letting me know she was sore (day 2) she works late, but was almost home and would send her pic ASAP. She got me up and into my workout- she had way more going on than me and the sore factor going into day 2 is crazy! Yet she was headed home to do her shred .... So proud.

6 days to go!!

Blessings

Today is a day of reflections , hope for the future and most of all thankfulness for all the blessings He has given me.

Day 12 ~ fist pump

I'm on day 12 - woo Hoo!!! It was a sweaty day 12, but it is complete. This week I had two firsts this week: 1- I traveled unexpectedly and actually did my workout 2- I had a really long day (worked solid til 7:30 after traveling all day) and a roller coaster of a week an I sure did get 'er done as soon as I got home!

TGIF

What a week of emotions - just pick one I'm sure I had it! Over all I'm so excited and happy, and constantly learning new things about myself, my strength : physically and emotionally. celebrating our first year of marriage was amazing , we are so blessed to have found each other and to be surrounded by family and friends that love us so very much!

This weekend I'm going to pray a lot, and give many thanks for all the blessings in my life.

Tonight I relax. Sit back and enjoy.

Back on the workout wagon

Day 1 is in the books and I'm back on the Wagon- we let our lifestyle change slide at the beginning of this year. Yes honest moment I think I have worked out 30 times all year- it's OCTOBER! What !!!!?

So today I'm back- my lifestyle since falling off the wagon has reminded me why I made this change and loved it so much ... Because the last 9 months of not living a healthy life has made me gross. I'm disappointed in myself and honestly my energy, sleep , attitude reflects this change. So back on board I go!

The workout today was FANTASTIC! I feel so good, I'm hot, sore (yes already) and most of all happy!

Today I remind myself that 2011 was a lifestyle change , I just had a lapse, so back I go - and this picture is my motto. And come on it's funny!
