life goes one whether your their or not.  I moved to Texas at the end of May for work, leaving my daughters behind…not as bad as it sounds…one is 19 and at college and one is 17 and finishing up her senior year.  Although i was excited about going to see them (youngest was on homecoming court) I had a ton of let downs.  Its a terrible feeling knowing that your not missed like you thought you were.  I mean my daughters miss me, but they have adjusted to me not being there. My friends….well lets just say….didnt see much of them, not even a good bye from them…..So i have learned that the past is the past and I need to live in the present and as far as the future…BRING IT ON!!! While being away though i managed to get sick and its taken its toll on me.  So workouts are a couple of weeks behind now and eating well that is way off!!!  All my goals are set for this year and the coming year.  I am running a 5k on December 4th in Austin Texas for the ronald mcdonald house…God help me…i am so not a runner…and i need to start training for it, and I plan on competing in 2010!! I know I can accomplish these things….Staying positive is the key and staying focused.  as some one said on here…..

LIFE HAPPENS…..NEVER GIVE UP ON YOURSELF OR YOUR DREAMS!!!

and I dont plan on letting that happen!!!

officially started today!!! Another 12 week challenge for women to push themselves to the ultimate level.  We have all learned so much about fitness, eating healthy, workouts, and each other on a personal level.  It has turned out to be more than a challenge but a support group.  No one is allowed to give up, and even if one still tries to we give them the support and encouragement to move forward. We have learned that we all have good and bad days, and that we all deal with it on a different level, but as a group we help find solutions to overcome what our greatest fears might be!! so with that being said…..LETS ROCK IT GIRLS!!

Is an understatement right now…..I have been working  my A** off at the gym, and eating healthy so why is it that I  put on a pair of jeans and they are just as tight as they were months ago???? What is it that I am doing wrong.  Not enough Protein?  Not eating enough times during the day?? Not enough Cardio?? Seriously what am I doing wrong lately??  I am going home on October 7th, and wanted to be down some when I see my girls again…its been a long 6 months without them (19 & 17 but still my babies).  So is stress maybe playing a part in all this?  Although there have only been a few days that i have been totally stressed out!! Hmmmmmmmmmmmm…..I want answers!! LOL!!! Its a new day…so its going to be a new  plan of action!! I gotta do this….FOR ME!!! Besides I have goals and I will ATTAIN them!!! Okay i am done venting…lets get this day started!!!

How do you get all your meals in on a busy floor?  I find it nearly impossible but yet some of you are in fantastic shape and seem to do it.  Any tips to help me out on getting all those meals in while at work would be great!! The other day I ran my booty off and barely had time to for a quick bite for lunch in fact i ate standing up and was off again…I ran so much my glutes hurt that night…lol!!! So please tell me HOW U DO IT!! lol

to my right rib cage….I was doing leg presses on wednesday feet high and on my last set i heard something pop!! NOT good…it is one of my ribs, not real sure what I did to it, but it hurts big time!! I managed to get through the rest of my workout, but by night time…PAIN!! It hurts to walk, to rollover in bed…what to do what to do!! So did not need this right now when i am kicking A** at the gym!!! I guess i keep moving forward and hope its nothing serious!!

bb.com friends who have gave me great positive comments!! Just when i wanted to give up you were all there to help me get through my trying week.  Never letting me give up!! I dont know what i would do without all of you!! So even though we dont know each other on a personal level, i am thankful to have all of you as my friends!! So today is a new day, time to move forward!! Need to get this body Rockin and Hott!! Big goals are set…to compete in 2010…bring it on!!!

Okay went to the pool today, and although I have made some progress with my group PROJECT HOT BODY still am feeling a bit like SHAMU…lol!! I decided i dont like being the one that feels out of place at the pool or beach, I want to be the one that can stand tall and show off my body and be proud!! IN other words I want to be the one that struts my stuff in a hot sexy bikini and turns the heads.  Yes i now kinda of petty, but i am tired of feeling uncomfortable in my own skin!! So here it to pushing myself to the next level!!! My goal for 2010 is to compete…so I am on MISSION!!  SWEAT AND SACRFICE EQUALS SUCCESS!!!
