Quitting? Hell no!

I think my post yesterday made it sound like I had given up on my April A-Z Commit to be Fit Challenge.  I'm absolutely not! 

 As you can tell from this past weeks posts, this weeks has been really difficult.  I'm struggling through some very emotionally draining personal stuff.  I've only made it to the gym one time, I did not stay within my calorie limit even one day, and I have drank copious amounts of alcohol....with a straw...beer with a straw!!  (We went to see Marianas Trench on Wednesday.  I LOVE stadium beer!!).  My week of not caring has not helped with the Commit to be Fit Challenge.  Friday morning weigh in was not pretty.

Oh well...moving on!


I will not QUIT!  Today I'm back on track with counting calories and I suppose I could lay off the beer for the rest of the month...maybe ;)

This weekend I will get in a 90 minute run as well!



I love this!

enough IS enough.

  I can think of many 'e' words that are relevant to my commit to be fit theme for this A-Z Challenge: energy, exertion, educate, excel...the list could go on and on. I finally settled on the word 'enough'.   Christmas of 2010 I was at the lowest weight I had ever been.  I remember being very happy and very, very hungry.  I was over-exercising and under-eating.  The weight didn't stay off because it wasn't a lifestyle that I could keep up with.  By summer 2011, the weight was back on. In my commitment to be fit and my quest to lose the last 10 pounds, I will be doing enough.   I will exercise enough and I will eat enough.  I will change my body and change my life in a healthy, and maintainable way. When I run, I will run fast enough.  When I lift, I will lift heavy enough.  When I stretch, I will stretch far enough.   I will, simply, do enough.

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?

Kick Ass.

  Day 11, Letter K, and almost 5 pounds gone!  I'm kicking ass at my A-Z Commit to be Fit Challenge!!   I'm quite certain that the next 5 pounds are going to be quite a bit tougher than the first 5, but I'm willing to do the work.
