Hello to all of you witnessing my struggle. It was pointed out to me today that we have 143 day's until Tough Mudder! Only 39% of a year left to train!!
I still have yet to find my scale. I was talking about this with my bestie today. She asked how I was doing with everything, you see she has been a part of this battle with me since we were 13 (and we'll be 33 this year, shhhhhh). She has seen me at my heaviest, weakest, strongest, happiest, most miserable, and thinnest. One doesn't necessarily come with the other in my life. At my absolute thinnest, I was dating a drug addicted alcoholic and was constantly stressed to the hilt. At my very heaviest, which I'm fairly close to now I am happiest (except the lower self esteem of weight gain), I am married to a wonderful supportive genuine and kind loving man, have a beautiful son, two lug headed dogs that I adore, we own two homes and both have well paying full time jobs, so suffice to say I'm at my happiest! Anyway, long story made longer, we were talking about how obsessed I get when I'm chained to the scale. She said that maybe it's good that I can't find it. I replied with one word. Probably.
Another amazing g/f of mine, who has lost 120lbs in 6 months!!!!! posted this quote on her FB wall today, eat healthy and exercise hard and the weight will take care of itself. This is what I'm banking on. I feel great! I don't feel deprived and I am not biting peoples heads off at every turn!
So, tonight's workout:
http://youtu.be/lzy5UZ2jah4 ZWOW #3 The Pyramid, time challenge
5, 10, 15, 10, 5 reps of each (hence the pyramid)
1. Split squat jumps
2. One leg lunge
3. Push-up Supermans
4. Skaters
Time: 13:10.07
I think this time reflects how much strength I have in my lower body, I have always had this growing up a horse back rider and the muscle memory always seems to return quickly. I feel good!! Come on peeps I'm on day three and its already starting to feel better!
