fit_in_time’s BodyBlog

Hey folks!  I haven’t blogged in so long, it feels strange to actually write this post today.   But, I wanted to let y’all know that I AM STILL HERE! 

Life seems to have gotten in the way of my computer time.  I have to fight the kids to get on the laptop.  These past few weeks, I’ve lost the fight.  Then its time to get them ready for bed, get me ready for bed, and the next day, and on and on….Work is still crazy, but I’ve learned how to manage it, and not let work manage me. 

But I’m still here!

I’m STILL working out!  I’m running now, and eating better each day.  I can tell the difference in my heart rate (hubby says my heart is becoming more "efficient").  I’m getting up most mornings at 4:30AM, to take care of ME!

It’s slowly happening.  The "CLICK".  The Ah Ha Moment.  That this IS truly, a Way of Life, and not just something that you do, to fit in a dress, for an upcoming event, etc (well, those things still serve as motivators, but oh well…)

So, if you don’t hear from me for a few days, pls don’t forget about me!  Drop me a line!  Keep sending me those words of encouragement.  Cause, I’M STILL HERE!

Tomorrow mornings goal - P90X - Plyometrics.  Did this tape for the first time last week, and though I didn’t do each move "perfectly", I finished the whole tape!  I’m STILL HERE!

Yawning now.  4:30AM comes quickly.  Good Night!

I’m not sure of what is going on with me, but this was a bad week for me, in terms of diet/exercise.  I have not worked out.  I have not eaten clean.  I am not motivated.  I really hate feelling this way, but I haven’t done sh&t to get myself back on track.  WHY???  I know what to do.  I know what to eat.  I know how to train.  So, what’s the problem?

I’ve even started drinking again.  Bad, Bad, Bad.  Alcohol definitely dulls your senses, and I usually can feel it more, in the AM’s.

However, I haven’t given up on myself.  I’ve been thinking about my plan all week.  I have MANY areas in my life, in which I need to tighten up (i.e. finances, job, family, etc).  What I’ve concluded is that all of these things require COMMITTMENT, and DISCIPLINE! 

This will require a new plan of attack.  I’m taking today to develop that plan, and tomorrow begins implementation.  Although, I had the best of intentions this AM.  I got up, put on my workout clothes, and was all set to take the BHB out for a walk.  We got about 3 blocks away from my house, and the rain came in full force!  Had to run all the way back home, and now, here I am, on the couch, in the doldrums.

Got to get out of this funk!!!

Starting Atray’s Challenge today!  Did the 3.2M walk/run with hubby and Big Hairy Beast this AM.  Felt great to get my body moving again!  Shopping is on the schedule today, for clean foods.  Had my first MuscleMilk in about a week, for breakfast.  I’m getting my mind right, and my body moving!  I WILL BE BELOW 200LBS BY 12/25!

I will post pics today, as soon as I can find my camera (my daughters have somehow managed to misplace it, AGAIN!  AAARRGGH!
