Friends keep friends moving...

This is the same video you will see if you watch Kelly.  :) 

Yes I still don’t have a camera.  I have been working on closing up an old job before moving to a new one on Monday.  There just haven’t been enough hours in the day because I have been KICKING BUTT with my workouts.  


Last week was my best week of training EVER.  I burned 2400 calories on the Polar and I completed my first 5k in under 30 minutes.  A great place to .... Yes I took a 3 day break after that.  Wasn’t the plan or what I wanted but LIFE HAPPENS.  It is this thought and that made me think about how many of us can get down when LIFE gets in the way of our plans.  I just shared my thoughts on this with a friend who had a bad day when trying on clothes.  I thought we all have these days so I wanted to share this as my post.

They are one pair of pants.  The cut could be different or the fabric.  You can't sync your self esteem and progress over 1 pair of pants.  Go back and look at the things you have done and focus there.

Even when you are "skinny" or at your goal weight - you are going to have days where you don't feel pretty, or you have a zit, or you ate the wrong thing.  Shit happens. You can't feed that monster.... close the door and move on.  You are absolutely entitled to a bad day - we all have them.  But it is just that a bad day.  Wake up this morning and start a new day with a fresh attitude and kick some butt.  remember focus on and give energy to what you WANT!

I no longer see myself as fat or skinny.  If I notice a fat conscious moment I immediately switch my focus to strong vs. weak.  I just go towards focusing on getting stronger.  

This is not a race... it's a journey - let's enjoy it together.

**************What do you say to yourself and friends to help get through an off day?***************
