Getting back on the horse.

This stuff is hard.

But then who said it was going to be easy?

Last week was not a good week for working out (hey at least I'm being honest), but the past is the past and this week is a new opportunity for me to kick some serious pahtooty. I'm going to start I believe NEXT week a new program with Tommy with the shakes I've beent aking and all that jazz. I'm excited. Those Isagenix shakes are not only easy for making in the morning or after work, but man.... are they tasty! Chicken is getting really boring again though... there's only so much I am able to do with a chicken breast that's still healthy and not either dry or completely devoid of flavor. Blah. But excited, waay excited for next week.


I worked out before work this morning, did a 20 minute run, and dear Hans Christian if you're reading this I RAN most of it, didn't go slower than 3mph for my walking intervals... Can I tell you how awake I feel right now? I do think getting an actual night's sleep has been helping witht hat exhausted tired feeling too... But I felt ready to tackle the day and get down to business.

My goal is to work out and do that run before work every day this work week. I nearly didn't get up and took that extra time for sleeping... But no. Pulled myself up by my boostraps (new boots this weekend so that phrase works) and I did it.

Shake in hand I conquered this morning. I've got too much to lose staying in bed and not committing. I just need help sometimes. And that's where I've had great support. I've been good at least in if I haven't been working out ( I KNOW BAD KIM BAD IM!!!!) I've not been diving off the deep end with the eating healthy portion.

All things are gonna come together though. I need to stick with this. New Year's is coming up and then it'll be the end of February in no time... It's also hard to want to go and work out I've found when you're doing it solo. And I don't wanna be paying to go work out at Lifetime all the time, once a weekend is fine but the gym here at work is free and free is just the right price for me, but it's hard to do it alone. (Yeah... I could whine some more but I'll spare you all





In other news aside from the fitness portion... I am applying to go back to school. If there's something I've been able to learn with the changes I'm implementing in my life is that it's too short to not do what's right for you. I am applying to go back to La Crosse for a second Bachelor's in Education so I'll be able to teach. It's what I have a passion for and I know that I will not be truly happy or satisfied with my life if I don't do this for me. So working on FAFSA and my application.. emaield the admissions department in La Crosse... It feels right. Scary and intimidating to think about but I know this is the right choice for me.

There ya go Syl. Good for you?

I WILL GET THIS MEDAL!!!!!!
