What's a girl to do?

-

Ok yeah so I am hooked up to all these wires... the stickies are drivin me crazy and I would rather just yank them off .. thank you very much.. I thought I would get use to them but nope.. they are still annoying me..

But whats a girl to do?

I decided I can't sit around feeling "monitored" all day.... so of course I just had to go with the flow and get up this morning and workout :)

I did Upper Body:

chest press, chest flies
shoulder press and front shoulder raises
bi curls and hammer curls
tricep extensions and tri pull downs

happy that I am going up in weight and getting stronger with every workout :) I was soooooooo excited when i went up to 25lbs again on bi curls and did 20s on shoulder press... I also did front shoulder raises with light weight as i hadnt done those in about a year! ...(since i hurt my shoulder)... I felt NO pain or twinge at all in my shoulders.. and that is sooooo cool cause i really really think i am back to normal now... :)

so whats a girl to do when she feels watched, monitored and annoyed by crazy medical equipment? ... .. well.. you gotta just get over it and get those workouts in anyway :)


and my heart will tell you
"Lifes always better on the other side of a good workout"~ !


t minus 27hours 41 mins until device removal :) i cant wait!


oh.. and today is our 19th wedding ann....... what a sexy wife i am today huh?

18 years of Choosing to Start Over

-
Welcome to were it all started, this space I created in January of 2006 to help me navigate my journey to personal health and fitness. I have come a LONG way from that first post 18 years ago and I am so grateful for all I have learned along the way. I will be coming here a lot more often over the next weeks, months and years as I have decided to begin writing, journaling and sharing here again. I hope and pray you might find inspiration here to help you along your own path to health and fitness. Please note that this 18 year journey consisted of several things I learned that did not work for me, others programs, supplements and others ideas of nutrition, health and fitness. I am leaving all these as is, so you can see my journey. I will be talking more about the different things I tried thru the years and what I learned about myself and what works for me along the way. If anything this blog chronicles my story of starting over and making hard choices to be who I someday dreamed of ...

Happy to say I am not very saddle sore from the bike ride last night.. think this ole tush is getting use to riding again:) it was nice to get up this morning and get to workout.. I did three b's .. squats, leg extensions, dead lift, leg curls, bi curls and then I decided to throw in some abs cause I didnt do them last night.. :) I am feeling stronger and stronger and that feels nice. I am also getting leaner.. today I notice above my knee caps was CUT!.. I am not going to complain here.. because getting rid of fat is getting rid of fat.. but why.. I ask you .. does it come off my knee caps, and my shoulders instead of my baby belly or my bottom? .. its just not really that funny but I cant help but laugh.. what do to.. but to keep going.. and some day I will have the nice lean increadably cut knee knees I have always dreamed of. :) hehe.. Happy friday! taking the kids swimming today.. first time this summer. have to run and get suits for them.. they keep growing out of theirs! ho...
