Adrian is a big loser

I am reading a book by Rick Pitino coach of the University of Louisville basketball team and it is very insightful. The book success is a choice is motivational and insightful in laying out what it takes to becoming a successful individual in whatever it is you want to do. The first step is deserving victory. This is where I have failed time and again. Deserving victory is about building the self esteem necessary to succeed through hard work, preparation and persistence. I have not deserved victory because while I want to have success I have not put in the work, along with the dedication in my diet that is needed to achieve the goals I desire. I will make changes starting today to change this flaw in my character because I deserve it.

I woke up this afternoon to the smell of sausage pizza. I work nights so I usually have my breakfast around noon. Anyway, I was torn between eating a slice of pizza or my usual cereal. Normally I would choose the pizza hands down since this is one of my favorites foods and I love the carbs no questioned asked. However, I was able to pass on the junk this time. My will power wavered but didn’t break. Off to the gym I go day three of BFL.

I made it to the gym two days in a row which is a good start for me. I have had varying levels of motivation in my workout plan and right now I am feeling pretty motivated. I am going to use this blog to keep myself honest and to stay motivated and excited. Every time I log on to this site I find interesting stories about people who have made amazing changes to their body and they reassure me that I can succeed. I weigh in on Sunday and I know that I will hit my mark.
