yipes.... restarting after a semi-mediocre two weeks!

[Guest guest]

For some reason, I have gotten lazy. I was going full steam for

about 15 weeks, and then wham! the alarm goes off, and I stay in

bed.. I find every reason not to go to the gym at lunch or after

work. I am eating more junk each day... I maintained my weight -

thank goodness, but I am tired of being in the comfy zone.

I feel tired all the time, bloated and basically out of shape.

Ya see, I do this every time.... I get to a certain weight/size and

I feel better - even great some days -- I get compliments on how

great I look and I start being lazy!

Well, over the weekend at a 40th birthday party; I started look

around at the women. I will be 34 at the end of the month - and I

will be damned if I look dumpy, frumpy and old at 40. These women

were all out of shape, frumpy and totally " beat " looking. Life

doesn't have to be like that.

So, I have made the decision to push myself harder than ever this

year. I will be at 35 in the best shape of my life. That's it.

period. No excuses anymore.

I deserve to be in shape with killer arms and legs. I can get there.

It's going to take hard work and determination, along with some kick

butt motivation -- but if I don't do it for myself, noone else is

going to either.

It's like a little light bulb just went off .... I get it....

I am going to post new pics, as I realize I never posted my 12 week

pictures! Just my start and 6 week ones. So, I will get those up by

the end of the week...

Time to refocus and recommit. Have a great day all. Thanks for

listening! (or reading!)

LOL! Were we at the same party? <g> I was at a 40th birthday party on

the weekend too I saw some pretty tired and frumpy looking women

(and men too, for that matter). I turned 40 in Jan and even though I am

still a work in progress I think I looked better than a lot of women

there (older and younger) who eat junk and drink too much and NEVER

exercise because they are " too busy " . I know I feel better than most of

them anyway!

Those sound like some good goals and some great incentive to get where

you want to be! Congrats on your renewed enthusiasm and dedication!
