HOW DO WE DO IT!!!???!!!


IT really is not easy!!! It is really really tough to get back on track once you have let your program fall into ruin!
Why does this happen? I don’t understand how we can feel SO charged and motivated one day and then all of the sudden it all falls to crap! We are eating too much, eating the wrong things, slacking off in our workout and avoiding our friends because we feel we might have gained weight!
(Today’s post will be short and sweet, I promise)!!
I have finally begun to take charge of my professional life! I am working two jobs, one to pay the bills and one to build a reputation so that I can pay more than just the bills later, and working two jobs, being on the go from 6am until 10 pm every day can be taxing to say the least, in fact I get SO into my routine that not only have I been not eating right, not working out right and not sleeping right, I have also been not relaxing right… I have been so focused and straight laced (lol) that I even go into a weird glazed over with drawled kind of daze when I am not working.
It’s great that I am working toward my future and Cesalee’s future, but it’s not great that I am letting it become such a distraction from my Journey that I am falling off track!
SO!!! This is my game plan:
1. (AS PER MY TRAINER DANIEL WOODRUM) I must be in bed by 11pm and get at least 7 hours sleep….
2. I must follow the workouts outlined and get enough exercise to sustain me and provide me with the calorie burning energy I need to continue to lose weight.
3. I must eat right to support rule number 2
4. I must spend time with Cooper and Cesalee, be it phone or video or texting with Ces and or having someone go play with Coop if I can’t.
5. I must turn off my brain at night somehow.
6. I have to pay attention to the people in my life outside of my job (others can learn from this too, you know who you are)!!!
7. (should be number 1) ask God for help!
Ok, so the rules are not so bad, and I can almost hear what some of you are thinking. “How do we start”?
This is it folks, this is how it’s done…
Get up, put your shoes on and get dressed, go for a walk, grab a .50 yogurt, or an egg, and a banana and a hand full of nuts, and smile because you will have just “gotten started”!!!
