I know I have been MIA on my blog. I apologize for that! I was away for a few days and then when I got back....life just got in the way. August has definitely been a bit busier for me which is a great transition for me as I head back to work....in just 6 days!!! Yikes!!!
As far as my journey goes....I have to say I am pretty happy with what I have accomplished thus far. I am a bit sad my journey is coming close to an end. I have met some great people who may not know it, but have really inspired me :)
I am getting a bit more compliments which is always great...I mean what girl doesn't like a little flattery lol
At boot camp yesterday I realized that the warmups which have usually been so rigorous and tiring are now not so bad. They are still challenging and works you out but I am able to get through them which is now allowing me to push it to that next level. My legs and upper body feel much stronger.
My last fit test and weigh-in produced some good results. I went down a few more pounds and in inches. We have just two more fit tests and weigh-ins so I really want to push myself to meet my goal. I initially wanted to lose at least 20 pounds by the end of the journey and I am close so I have to stay focused.
Now no one is perfect right?!? I def. made a few mistakes along the way but I get up and keep moving forward. Like my fellow journeymen said, "its a lifestyle" change. I have to believe in myself and know that if I keep this up with time I will be able to change those bad habits. I am in the process of re-learning or re-training my body and my mentality about nutrition.
As I get closer to the end of the journey I will be sure to update my blog as often as possible.
Veronica,
ReplyDeleteEven though the Journey challenge is nearing an end, I and the rest of the people at The WorX will be here to help keep you motivated! As you said, it's a "lifestyle change" and being around positive people who hold the same goals and values will help you reach those long term dreams. Your results have been amazing so far and I love seeing how you and your friends push each other to take each move to the next level (despite how tough those workouts can be). Keep up the great work!
