30 before 30?

It seems when people are about to turn 30 they make a "30 things to do before I'm 30" list.  My 30th birthday isn't all that far away.  I do have to turn 29 first, but after that it's the big 3-0.  I only really ever had one goal in my mind for 30: to look and feel the best I ever have.  I made this goal when I was 27.  I was doing great....until I wasn't.  I started living a not-so-healthy way to lose some weight and "look good".  I barely ate a thing and over-exercised.  I dropped my weight down to 132 pounds.  And then I got really hungry and gained 8 of those back.  Sitting at 140 was ok, but I still felt like I wanted to lose fat and build muscle.  I am now at 145 pounds and feel like crap.  I completely let myself go.  Last month, I weighed in at 150 and WOKE UP!!  5 pounds of that is gone...it's time for the rest to go.  I don't have a goal weight in mind, but I do have a goal body.  I have 15 months to get there!!

I'm not sure if I will make a 30 list, but I do have a life list.  A bucket list.  I keep adding to it, and sometimes removing from it as I learn and grow.

My Life List:

-Achieve the body I want
-Complete a triathalon.  (I'm thinking the 1-60-10 in Sylvan next summer!)
-Learn to play the guitar
-Spend time in Europe with Christiana
-Successfully Wakeboard
-Go on a weekend hiking trip
-Finish a novel
....

That's it so far, but I'm sure there will be more to come.

Feel the burn.

B is no longer for beer and I'm sad   I really should have thought this theme through a little bit more.  Words that start with B and are relative to my "commit to fit" challenge aren't the easiest to come by.  I've decided to go with " burn "  because I am already feeling it!! On Saturday I decided to terrorize exercise my core and upper body after my run.  DOMS set in late on Sunday and after an intense work out tonight, I dread laughing.    My commit to be fit challenge will include 3-4 strength training sessions per week in addition to my half marathon training program.  It's time to feel the burn !  Can you feel it?

Good choices.

Happy Monday everyone!  I hope your week is a good one! We're on Letter G for the A-Z Challenge, and my commit to be fit post is about making good choices. Making good choices isn't always easy for me.  Mainly, because I'm usually really drunk and not thinking about what's best for me in the long run. You're probably thinking that I'm talking about making good diet choices and, of course, I am, but they aren't the only choices that need to be made when choosing to live a fit and healthy lifestyle.   Nutrition and diet choices are, actually, probably the easiest of all them all.
