The F word.

Well Fuck.  I've apparently Failed at abstaining from alcohol.  I'm just not a good non-alcoholic.  I tried it for awhile.  It's not very Fun.  Kudos to all of you who can handle not drinking.  I'm just not one of you.  

In relation to yesterday's post about doing enough and Finding a lifestyle that is maintainable, I've realized that not drinking just isn't going to work for me.  Enough is enough already....BEER ME!

  1. lol! At the moment I have a small glass of Midnight Moon Cranberry at my side. Yes, moonshine in a mason jar that has whole, real cranberries in the bottle.

    I'm getting my vitamin C, dammit.

    1. I spent a lot of time researching which alcohols are the best for you nutrition wise. You're doing it right. Anything with fruit. ;)

  3. I used to drink all the time and just lost the desire somewhere. I probably drink a six pack a year now.

    Dropping by from A to Z. It's my first year participating.

  4. I love drinking, but I can just as easily go without. I never drank at all between the ages of 19 and 21.

    But I like drinking.

    1. I'm the same way. I can go without it, I don't need it, but I do LIKE it. I tried to be the non-drinker at the party on the weekend. It kind of sucked. I finally just poured a glass of wine and relaxed :)

  5. Yeah, I'm trying to drink less too because I realised after a Sunday of no alcohol at all that I felt heaps better on Monday!

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.
