Saturday marks the 1/3 of-the-way completion mark for the Tumble X Biggest Loser Contest that I'm in. I'll get measured for the month on Saturday, so it'll be very interesting to see where I'm at compared to a month ago.
I feel like I have much more energy and I can also do more without feeling out of breath. Life is way too valuable to not take care of your body! My family depends on me and I have to be the best I can be for myself. Olivia and Gabe only get one mommy and I def want to live a long healthy life for them! I keep telling myself that whenever I am too tired to workout, or want to skimp on my nutrition. Dan's also been a big help as far as workouts and food is concerned. I am truly blessed to have such a strong support system!
Accomplishments this past month:
-I participated in my first 4 mile race. Although, I wanted so badly to take the t-shirt and run the opposite direction (aka, skip out), I am so glad that I finished!
-I've been keeping track of all of my BLT's (bites, licks & tastes). It really helps me get a grip on where I am with my progress. For example, I'm struggling with why in the world I take in so many more darn carbs than protein. Hey, they say that you are what you eat, so my nutrition is crucial in this contest!
-I've made it to the gym 6 days a week for the past month! It feels to get past that hump of getting on a routine. I think that's a huge struggle at first...getting over the excuses and just saying, I have to make it happen no matter what!
Last but not least, REST is extremely important to a healthy lifestyle. Therefore, I'm going to get my beauty rest...night night!
