Today is the Day!

Yep. I start my "I'm going to kick ass!" today.

The good.
I worked out today. I was tired. It was spitting rain. It was cold, very coold.

I went anyway. Talked myself through it the whole way - 30 min of walk/run cardio outside.

Now I feel GREAT!. More energy and less stress than I have had in days.

The bad.
I ate a few bites of fudge. This will have to stop if I want to achieve the body I want.

And the ugly!
There is really NO UGLY today. Except for a few bites of fudge(which is bad, but not ugly), I'm OK.

Anyway, today is the day. I want to make some serious progress in January.

Syndromes and Fat Marks

I am sick of "waiting until a better time" to lose this weight but I just seem so busy right now that I don't know how to get my head into it right now. I feel like I don't know where to start. What do I change first? Should I do it all at once (all or nothing) or should I gradually eat healthier? If I do it "gradually" what if it doesn't work? And on and on . . . So . . . as you can see, I am stuck in "analysis paralysis" and the "I'll do it tomorrow" and "I'm just too busy right now" excuse syndromes. Meanwhile the waist in my pants is making red indentation marks on my belly. I had a perfect round button mark (thread holes and all) just left of my belly button yesterday! Yeah! (NOT!!!)

As someone once called it, an "opportunity-wasting under-achiever." Yep that pretty much sums it up!

Check In

Yes. I need to check in! It has been too long since I have blogged. I haven't been able to think of what to write. It is not as easy to blog as it seems. So . . . what to write about.

On the fitness front . . . . I am waiting . . . until the new year to start again. I am just so busy with Christmas stuff right now that it is hard to find the time to eat right. Also, I ordered Precision Nutrition. I am looking for a nutrition plan that will make me feel good and one that I can live with! I've been trying to follow PN but without actually buying it (I'm too cheap!). But that was not working so I just ordered it. I am happy with it so far.

Other news . . . . This time of year I get all these ideas of things I'd like to do and accomplish. But then I get discouraged quickly because I don't feel like I have time to do any of them. Ugh! So I'm going crazy with that right now . . . . I do NOT WANT to become one of those people who make new year's resolutions and then don't keep them. Please . . . don't let me become one of them!
