Dare to Soar BodyBlog

The weekend was good. I stayed on tracked and consistant.  Easter didnt through off my plans.  I even made it to the gym and did a good… not great but good chest workout.  I felt pretty good about it.

I am ready for this week. 

Well its finally friday and I am ready for the weekend.  I hope you all emailed that bunny andtold him to hold off on the refined sugar stuff.   I did.  We struck a deal.  No candy and he can bring Six Flags Season Passes.  The gift that gives lots of ups and downs and thrills all summer long.  Have I mentioned that I love roller coasters?  Yep! I am going to go to Los vegas to ride that one on the NY NY .  Cant freakin wait. 

Behave yourself this weekend.  Eat Clean.  Make it count. 

I am so ready for the weekend.  Needing some time for fun and frolic as well as some diet planning time.  10 weeks til summer and I want to be down at least 25 pounds.  I can make it happen.  Done it before and will do it again.  My number one priority. 

Last night I met my friend at the airport.   Such a cool little plane.  I had never been up close to one before.  He is so passionate about it.  We didnt go up last night because the winds just wouldnt cooperate but next time we will.  I attached a picture of him coming in on landing. 

Wow! Talk about a busy week.  Monday Home opener, we lost.  Last night we were kicking some butt when I went to bed.  Not sure how the game ended but it was a good one.  I am busy as heck at work.  I am getting my workouts in.  Last night I hammered chest.  What a work out.  not a 100% but damn close.  The iron was flying.  Speaking of flying, my friend Paul is flying in today.  He may take me up.  I am excited about that.  I mean i have never been on a plane before.  I drive everywhere. 

Have a great day.  train hard.

Woohoo!! Opening day.  You know its spring time when its baseball time.  Today is the home opener.  I am in chage of the tailing gating event at work.  I got the grills ready to be fired up.  Other stuff catered in.  I am sure that a few of my co-workers will be disappointed at the lack of junk food but who cares.   Attendance prizes all marked with the logo of the St Louis Cardinals.  Yep Hometown fan here. 

Made it to the gym last night.  Got in some cardio and pounded out legs.  Really starting to feel it now.  Tonight I will work chest. 

I have a busy week so I have to make sure that I make every workout count.  Have to stay focused and get in and get out. 

Well I have to run. Have a great day

GO CARDS!!!

Good Morning! I hope the weather is nice today. I am so ready for spring.  I am so back on track and making things happen.   I have dealt with everything that had to be done and still made it to the gym.  So I am feeling pretty good all and all.  Have a great night. 

I had a fabulous weekend and stuck to my guns when out with my friends.   No drinking.  Well except that one glass of wine.  But I that is pretty mild compare to my norm.  So I would say I did dam good. 

I made it to the gym Saturday morning.  I wont make it back until Wednesday due to the funeral stuff I have to deal with.  Then I wil lbe back at it and changes will happen. 

Sorry so short.

Eat clean, workout intensely and stay motivated.  Only you can make it happen.

I am so glad to be back on here.  The few posts I read this morning made me wonder why I ever got out of the habit of visiting.  Well I know what it was. Life got in the way.  I didn’t make a priority. That is why I gained weight again, my lifts dropped, and my intensity level was non existence. 

Reading Im_ready’s post about her fabulous bench reminded me how much I enjoyed lifting big numbers.  I mean really if you are going to do it.  Do it hard.  Really get out of the comfort zone.  Truth was I was tired of unloading the bar when I worked out with the big boys. It was easier to just lift what they lifted.  Sure I still lift more than most that walk in but nothing compared to what I did.

I want my circle back again. I mean I still chat with a lot of them off and on.  They really helped keep me going and I hope I helped them as well.  Friendship is a two way street and one that requires regular maintenance.  Surrounding yourself with people who for the most part have a common goal really helps to keep you on track. 

I am down four pounds already this week.  I think it is mostly water but hey it’s a start.  Plus better to get rid of that now so I can work on the hard stuff.  Lol  

Work hard. Eat Clean. Stay motivated.

S

Not much to say today. Had a death in the family.  Not real motivated but I will work through it.  Have a great day.

Good Morning BB.Com

Well I am officially starting over again.  Stepped on that scale and damn I have been a very bad girl.  Yep! Let myself fall into the old habits and naughty ways.  It is time for positive and permanent changes.  I am going to clean up my act…again

 

Starting tomorrow I will be hitting the treadmill at 4:30am for some high intensity interval training.   It will suck at first but I know it is exactly what I need.  Plus don’t I deserve a little punishment for not sticking with things? Yep I thought so too.   

Seriously I love HIIT once I get in the habit of it. I mean it’s great to know you can push your body to the limit over and over again.  Knowing that it’s doing nothing but improving.  I can’t believe I let myself get away from it.  I know the last few months have been a little depressing and filled with issues but it’s still no reason not to take care of myself.  It’s a shame when a couple of months bring you to the point of starting over again.  I am really disappointed in myself.  Well enough of that.
