rainy day

I woke up at about 330 this morning to the rain (and stash deciding that he wanted me to pet him) and was up for about 1/2 hour listening to it. Thought I would get in a quick blog before my work day begins. Today I have a ccubed class for the first 4 hours of my day the I head to work.

I have been eating really healthy lately and I feel great. Lots of fruits and vegetables. Lat night I had veggie burgers and broccoli. I have been working out diligently and trying to stay on track.

This past weekend went by way too fast-I am sure enjoying having the weekends off. Saturday I went to Kensington and walked around their nature area and then I went to the movies. Saw the new Leonardo movie Inception and it was fantastic. I will be going to see it again.

Thats all for now!

a vicious cycle

As my blogging has fell to the wayside so has my healthy living. Eating healthy is a full time job in itself and working out is such a challenge. Not because I don't have the time but because, lets face it people, I am lazy!

But today I had enough and I once again motivated myself. I forced my ass (which, unfortunately, has not gotten any smaller as I had intended it too when I started this blog) off the couch and I worked out. And lo and behold not even 10 minutes into my workout I already felt 100% better and extremely motivated. Now lets keep this motivation up!

I am 29 years old now. This is my last year in my 20's and I have set a goal. And that goal is to be in the best shape of my life by the time I turn 30. I want people to look at me and think "damn, I wish I had her body." I want to be completely and totally comfortable with my body. But mostly I just want to be healthy. I want eating healthy to be a way of life for me-something that I am so use to doing that it just comes naturally to me.

So I am off to a good start. Jillian Michael's kicked my ass today. Just 25 minutes with her and its actually tough to sit here and type. I can feel it in every muscle in my body and muscles that I did not know existed. So lets raise our glasses (of water that is) to healthy living!
And when the going gets tough and you don't think you can push yourself anymore I want you to remember:

PAIN IS JUST WEAKNESS LEAVING THE BODY.
