I ran hills yesterday, it felt so good. I did 8 hills and pilates and a mix of kickboxing,dance, and kettlebells. i am seeing results. i decided not to get on the scale and to just keep going with my workouts. It has become so freeing to just make sure to workout hard and to eat moderately instead of constantly checking my weight. I am getting results !

So my Boyfriend took my car for the weekend and he hasn’t come back yet. i  wonder where he is. I am trying to be more aware of my ego in situations so that I can live in peace. T not coming home has been a great exercise in my spiritual growth. i am excepting him for who he is and giving both him and myself room for growth, Room for God. I decided today will be a day to relax and workout when it is revealed to me to workout I did some kettlebells, pilates, and medicine ball crunches nothing too extreme but at least working out. That is my mission for myself, that no matter what I will work out. I will allow space for growth with my eating and discipline. I will not resist change i will embrace it. Yea God!

My aunt died this week and that shook me up for a little bit because I am so close with my cousin and i don’t want to see him go through pain. So I was watching Oprah and listening to people  talk about The New Earth, a book written by Eckhart Tolle. At first I told myself i wasn’t going to read it b/c I know my God and I know my relationship to God. I realized that anything that helps you to be with God fully makes room for growth. Anyways, how does this apply to my workout. Well I used and exercise inspired  from the book. i went on a walk for about 9 miles  and on the walk i experienced my environment. the tree, their texture, the way they reach up to God in praise. The buds and flowers. What type of tree am i or what type of tree are my family members, I was a truly wonderful and purely enjoyable feeling! I went for 19014 steps and 1158.5 calories. God is Great. Make room for God.

Last week I was tues 9.3 miles, monday 3 miles, went to the gym on thursday b/c it was raining outside. I did 50min of cardio and some weight  training. I need to be more disciplined about my weights and eating. On Sunday I walked for  and hour and 10 minutes with 30 pounds(4miles)…16mile week. I am trying to move faster because quickness out weighs distance so hopefully I will be jogging more  in the nest couple of weeks. i got sick on thursday and friday.That sucks. Hopefully i will have some more pics soon. Monday I went to the gym and changed it up with the stair climber for 20min, elliptical for 25, and the row for the last 15 min. I did some pilates and ab work then i hit the weights. I am getting more consistant with my workouts but once again the eating is a hard thing to conquer. Better luck tomorrow!
Go me!
