My camera is on the fritz sorry no pictures as of late. Once i finish up the disposable I’ll share some fun vacation photos with you all.
I really want to go rock climbing. We haven’t done it yet…Why? I’m not sure. But I’m going to win this months competition and we are going. I already did a 50min cardio last night and now I’m sitting here eating a nice large tuna salad. I want to make sure i don’t lose any muscle so I’m making sure to eat protein with every meal. I guess that will also keep my blood sugar from spiking (headache) and then latter crashing (dizzy). This first week I’m going to focus more on exercising daily, drinking plenty of water, stretching, and eating plenty of healthy whole foods to keep hunger away. I won’t go more then 3-4 hours with out eating and will also make sure i get plenty of sleep.
In the past i always set my self up to get sick…from lack of sleep, food, water…the list goes on. I’m going to pay close attention to my body and make sure i relax…nope not take it seriously. Not that health isn’t a serious matter. I know that for me my number one weakness is stress. It’s unhealthy in all angles. I eat more, i don’t sleep, I literally get ulcers, and I’m not as happy as i could be. So I’m taking the surfers way of life and for a while. I’m just going to enjoy the ride. Relax =)
I hope you all can take even 5 min to yourself today and relax. I’ve been a workaholic from birth and it is highly over rated, and eventually inefficient, unhappy, and honestly overweight. Trust me it runs in the family and I’ve got to let it go. It’s not lazy to relax and play every now and then. It’s healthy. Time to re-program my brain, and my way of life. Live more!
What’s going to be different this time. Weekly accountability, friendly competition between me and my best friend “Hubby”, and short term goal/reward. No procrastinating allowed, and lots of fun!

Thank you for this message FS. I needed to hear this from someone else. I often tell myself not to worry, and I tell other to do the same, take five, don’t worry about the chores, the grass, the laundry, it will be there when you’re done but somehow, I fail to do it myself. It’s good to re-evaluate where we are so we know where we’re going. Thanks.
