Reflecting

So a Refreshed new me Back on track and not lost in thought of how close i am coming to the end. i want to take a min and reflect where i started out this past January.


Here i am working out in the gym not knowing how to make my body the way i want it but, determined that i would get there, this was my final attempt at me! So Second week still working on my own i am lifting some weights and cute little button of a woman walks up to me and ask if i am there every day.. " Yes i said i have been here everyday for the last 2 weeks trying to get me back, I say" Her simple Reply still blows me away. " you want a workout buddy, i Need someone to hold me accountable and you need help learning the ropes why don't we help each other?" Those words were the words that saved my life! Our First few weeks of working out i thought i was gonna die, i hurt so bad and was so non flexible but, she kept pushing me and wouldn't let me fail.. She says to me "I don't like losing i am very much a competitor So We are gonna do this." She taught me that working out even when your sore the next day is whats best to help improve your body where as before i would of taken the day off until i was unsore.. After the first two weeks it became a breeze i wanted me back so badly i would work my ass off trying to get there.. Now If i don't get in the gym each day my whole day is out of whack, i feel tired, i am dragging and my mood is awful... So now i see how much better one's health can be when working out the body.. For the first time in my life i know now i will never be back at the point where i began.. i am so happy with the new improved me! The weight loss is wonderful but, how i feel is even better. Yes there have been some minor problems like in the previous blog but, than i reminded myself this.. My body for so long was neglected and not taken care of it as it should of been so there is going to be some Rebellion in it against me on getting back on track right? Its like a kid who needs to learn better manors at first its the most difficult thing ever until the good becomes habit and the bad is no longer with in sight..


For the past few weeks my body has been in a slight Plato and i thought to myself its was the worst thing in the world but, its just a reminder that i need to push myself a bit harder change some things up and stop getting caught up in the i want to win this competition mode.. Before i had that thought in my head i was doing awesome.. not worrying about being first.. As much as i want to win and i know i am close i want me more, and if stressing out causes my weight to slow down than its not worth it.. I want me back and i am almost there i have another 54lbs until my goal i have lost a total of 76lbs since October of 2006! By the time i am gone i will have lost a person lol i never thought of it that way until my Friend Kayla who i work out with said it.. Its amazing how if we really focus on the good the bad gets lost in the mist of the shinning sun... Thanks Cat for Encouraging me yesterday.. And thank you Indigo for Being there as well.. You guys are soo my Support group.. loves ya .. Enjoy the day.
