Better than it use to be ... but

-

Its mornings like this that I ask myself "WHY?".
Last night my DH and I went out on a date. Texas Roadhouse was great! .. my tummy this morning.. not so much :) and i didnt eat that bad! But... I guess once my body gets use to eating healthy.. it wants to stay that way :) My eating these days is soo much better than it use to be.. I just keep trying to focus on the fact of how much progress I have made, getting rid of all those bad habits is nice... I guess how bad I feel this morning is just a reminder of what I use to feel like all the time! yikes

Today is rest day for me. Which is good, i think i need it before tomorrow. I am a bit anxious about 14 miles.. more nervous than i was with the half. I am not sure why but I think it will make the fact that I am trying to complete a full marathon even more concrete. I am wishing my weight would drop off a bit more ... even just another 5lbs would be nice as it would make it easier on my feet as I go so many miles. ... but.. i know that will come eventually, I just have to stick with what I am doing, ESP getting enough sleep and drinking enough water.

I am off to paint the ceiling in my den... Painting ceilings is a pain but i know it will be so nice when its finished.

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...
