The First Day

Well, today was the first day of a new life.  My goal?  To be in the best possible health of my life.

I decided to take my trainer's offer of prepping for a body competition next year.  YEP!  Next year, I will be posing in a bikini....on stage....posing.  AHHHH!  Even thinking about it freaks me out!

So, my trainer gave me a whole work up of daily work out plans and eating plan.  He has kept it super easy for me to follow, which I am very thankful for.  So, as I am reading, I start to FREAK OUT!  I was so overwhelmed and had NO idea what to do.

Thank goodness for Google!  I was able to look them all up and find images to show me what exactly I need to do.  PLUS I had a fellow gym member who offered to meet me today and "show me the ropes" as you will.  I felt SO much better.

However, I can barely raise my arms to wash my hair.  My legs are so sore from a good 40 minute run and 10 minutes on the step treadmill.  I am sore but am so glad I have started this!

Just had to share, and yes, I will keep you posted.  I took a before picture a few days ago.  I will post them side by side with my progression over time!

Feeling Finicky

This is how I feel today!  I am only on day 2 of my eating plan from my trainer and I want to punch this cute bunny in it's face!  My first round of food is for 4 weeks......UGGHHH.  I love food....not the best food but I love it....

Spinach is the devil and I hope I can do this for 3 more weeks!! 

I don't know what else to type.  I am tired.....I have training tomorrow morning....sleepy sleepy

The Day After

Yeeeeaaaahhhhh WOW am I tired!

I came home yesterday.  I took a shower.  I laid on the couch for a good hour.  I never did take a nap, but just relaxing and stretching was nice.

No lie.....we went to bed at 8pm and I slept hard until almost 6am.....when I woke up I was still tired!  :)

I was pretty tired and a little achy today, but as long as I kept moving I felt pretty good!  I am already thinking of next year.  I am definitely running that again and I am so excited!!!! 

I don't have much to say....I am just enjoying the ride of excitement here!  Thanks for reading everyone!

Yes, I Ran

And yes it felt amazing!  I ran 3 miles and then walked a mile at almost 4mph at alvl 5 incline. Holy crap!!  I alternated the incline. Up down up down. I was beat!  I can't wait to do it again!  Change things up for my body!

I can tell it's getting close to that time of the month for me. My tummy is so huge and all I want to do is stay home and lay on the couch. Last weekend I ate everything it seemed. So it all comes together!

Can't wait until THAT'S all over with!

Busy weekend coming up. My husband planned a date night for us Saturday night. He is so sweet!  Dinner and maybe a movie!  I can't wait!

Well I had better get to work!  Busy afternoon ahead!  Thanks for reading!
