Keepin it REAL!! *Bethy* BodyBlog

okay!! so I am ashamed to say I fell off the wagon!! I went to Houston for mom’s surgery, which got postponed at the last minute because they didn’t have any fresh tissue…ew for her corneal replacemenr!! So, we will be shooting for January!! I came home to some excitement at my house which knocked my little butt off the wagon…lol So, I am behind in my workouts and also ate some things that aren’t in my prescribed diet……So, I am pleading with my trainer not to banish me forever!! I Plan on Getting my butt…right back in the game Tomorrow!! I am hoping my trainer says…its better to have this happen Now rather than when Im closer to competitions!! Right now Im just not going to Push myself too hard or try not to beat myself up too much about this!! Also I want to Make a PUBLIC apology for Not having any GREAT BB/Fitness pics to showcase…..But, wanted to have some pics for MY OWN motivation and also showing a little of who I am….But, as soon as I have some awesome progress Fitness pics I WILL take down all the NON BB pics for those that are so offended by it….and also the few that are so interested in studying my pics to know where I live or tell me Im putting out TOO Much info……Wow!! I guess I Must be More Naive than I thought I was…..:) silly me…….Take Care to all and Have HAPPY HEALTHY HOLIDAYS from My family to YOURS!!  ~Bethy  

I Love my New Bodyspace Family!! I went a couple of days without really being on here….and I found my motivation sinking!! I think I’m Addicted to all the well wishers and Motivational Happy people on here….okay Not evreyone is Happy and I sound like a freakin *Happy Happy Joy Joy* Dork!! But, now that I KNOW what Im missing I truly get ALOT of my Motivation and Drive from seeing Everyone else working so hard…its like waking up to friends waiting to head to the gym with me!! I NEED that push sometimes…Especially in the WINTER months! So, Thank You for being there for me Everyday….It Really does help!! I hope in some small way I help too!! okay i sound like a Ms America contestant….lmao! Take Care and I will be writing more later…….I have to go out of town this week and won’t be on much but will be back this weekend!! My mom’s having surgery on Thursday and Im going to Houston to take care of her!! ~Beth

Okay so, we FINALLY get Princess Meagan out of bed and make it to the gym at 1pm. We did warmup on the bike for what was suppose to be 8-10 mins but, she says Im slow, so we raced…lol and ended up doing 20mins of Cardio! lol So, then we stretched and did some leg warm ups, walking lunges, (haha starting kicking her butt) leg lifts w/bands, donkey kicks w/bands, and as Im doing the last set, I hear her go "ah this feels good" so,  I look over and she is kneeling next to me fanning herself with the mat!! I said "What are you doing" She said, "I’m working my Arms!" I Love kids, they do keep us young!! She cracks me up! We Finished with our abs! Then went out and finished our legs workout! (workout tracker) Im sure we looked like the keystone cops in the aerobics room with her fanning her self, not to mention us trying to do obliques on the exercise ball and hold each others legs, which was hilarious cause we kept falling off and rolling around on the floor laughing our azzes off!! It was fun! Not, as hard as I wouldve liked it to be, but time with my daughter is far more important and priceless than a hard core training session! i’ll hit it harder tomorrow!! Still a decent leg day though!! ~Beth now off to record the workout in the tracker!!  

I wanted to go running this morning…..but, I went out last night around 10pm and saw 4 -5 police cars all around the middle school looking like they were searching for something!! I usually run at the middle school track, and we live in a Super nice new neighborhood…….so, Im a little leary about getting out and running alone today! Its now 8am and my gym opens now…so, off to run on the treadmill…..I just hate doing that cuz then I have to pack my food and it takes so much time! waa waa i know Im getting outta here! I’ll log my workout when I get back……been tooo dang long anyway…ha! Oh and someone help me with my timestamp I keep reseting it and it always reads 2 hours earlier than it really is my time…Im in central time and it keeps posting pacific time…whats up with that?? Good Morning to all!! Have a Super Sunday!! ~Bethy

I have been taking thermogenics and ephedra (ephedrine) since the late 80’s and my new trainer said I need to quit taking them so my body can do the work!! Wow!! I am soooo Sleepy now all the time! I am hopeing to get back to my old energetic self soon!! I feel like a freakin addict crashing off my high or somethin!! lmao!! I know I can do this I am a Strong Type A personality with tons of my own energy!! I probably needed the sleep Ive been getting its just making it hard for me to get to the gym and do what I need!! hehe But, I havent started my new training workout yet! So, when I get that it will be All Out HARD CORE from there on out!! I Can’t wait!! ~Beth

I went for a 2 1/2 mile run this morning!! Finally, I think Ive got myself on the right sleep schedule to allow me to get this done everyday!! I am Usually a morning person, but am married to a night owl so, sometimes its hard for me to stay on track!! Going to hit the gym later with my daughter!! I havent worked out in a couple of days so, I told her to be READY for a LONG gym session!! Its all good, when she gets tired or bored with training with mom she goes and plays basketball……which she and I Both suck at…lol Im anxious to take my new progress pics cause I am seeing some Major changes……but, am not going to take the pics til the next week or 2 (girl thing) haha Well, this is a boring blog, but much more pleasant than my last 2 blogs….YIPPY!! I hope all is well in the Bodyspace world for anyone reading this! I am always here for help or encourageing words!! Best Wishes and Luck in all your goals!! ~Beth
