Two Girls Are We

We are two girls in our thirties, ready to be a little less. This blog follows the next six months roughly, beginning July 25, 2011 and ending on New Year's Day, 2012! We will chronicle our highs and lows, good days and bad, weekly loss percentages and share all of the health and fitness brilliance we acquire along the way!

If Only We Could All Be Like Mary...

Can I get an amen for my sista Mary!!! This is the motivational message I got from her, today at 7am! (from last night)

Power Mindset: 1. Make Amazon wish list for rewards 2. 10 glasses of water 3. Yoga on Thursday 4. Write out dream page for motivation 5. continue to use mantra, "I'm worth it."

Reciprication: 1. email Cherilyn 2. Text with Kelly who is doing very well with her fitness journey

Three things done well today: 1. Ran 2.5 miles 2. Did 20 push ups, 25 crunches, and 10 extended leg raises while watching movie with Amara 3. Healthy breakfast

One thing I'll do better on Thursday: Plan my meals so that I don't get hungry from waiting too long. Today I had nachos and a baked pretzel with cheese at the pool with the kids after my work out. I was hungry when I started to work out so I made a poor decision.

The best part I see in Mary's message is the way she bounces back from a bad decision. We all make them!! How dod we get here after alll??!!! :)  It's the bounce back that matters!

Me? Pffffttttt!!  I am too busy worrying about all the non-health items on my agenda for the day! This is good and bad. Does it get me to the track? No. It actually makes me too busy, BUT it does get me motivated in general, thinking positive, feeling great about myself and that DOES keep me away from the refrigerator! So... everyone is different. I HAVE to exercise more, there's no doubt about that. But on the days I don't make it...at least I am not down on myself or doing more damage.

Embrace YOUR way! As long as you have one, you're on the right track!

Have an awesome Thursday women!
