Get your mind out of the gutter. :D I am so very happy to report that I have been hitting the gym at 5:30 in the morning to get my workout done. It is amazing how much easier it is for me to stay on course with my workouts when they happen first thing in my day. I have been meeting my friend to do our cardio and strength training workouts. I am totally accountable to her, so I will not NOT show up.
I watched the first episode of the Biggest Loser last night. I love that show. It's not because of the crazy workouts, but because I love to see people be transformed by a process. I love how quickly these people can shed fat and build muscle at the same time!
Jillian is back and brought some 'alternative' training methods with her. The contestants were flipping tires, snatching sandbags, using Iron Woody bands and pulling/dragging large objects with the rope. I thought that it was great to see 'new' methods being used to whip people into shape. That's what I like about Jillian and her workouts. She continues to utilize new methods to keep things fresh for the contestants and shows the viewers options for their workouts.
I am following my Weight Watchers program and enjoying the flexibility. I have been obtaining wonderful results when I am consistent. Isn't that always the key. My goal is to be done 15 pounds by my 30th birthday and to be at goal before I reach 31!
The last few weeks I was in a funk. I didn't know how to break it. The more that I tried to get out of my crappy mood, the more that I wanted to stay there. It was terrible. I am hoping that I can call it "hormones" or "PMS". It was scary to be there. I didn't recognize myself. I was afraid that I would become a nasty person. Yes, it was bad.
I am reading "Return to Love" by Marianne Williamson. From this book came some beautiful passages that had filtered the troubled thoughts that had been residing in my mind. It feels great to be out of that negativity now.
I know that it is unlikely that I will always be positive, but I know that I can choose to stay as positive as possible. I like giving energy to others, not taking it. That's how I felt the last few weeks. My poor boyfriend has been utterly patient with me and will be getting a wonderful "Thank You" from me. LOL
Ahhh, it feels like I can breathe again. I know that making a decision for my weight loss and workouts has brought clarity to me. I am so grateful!
