Good Thursday Morning!

As you can tell from my very different looking post that I am quite happy today. Its thursday another beautiful morning in the Colorado Mountians. Well lets see what drama I can come up with today. Yesterday while at walmart a crazy man grabbed me and caused bruising on my left arm.. AWSOME! OH well. This world is crazy.. What does that have to do with working out? Well I'll tell you.. I can now run faster and better then I could a week ago. So I can get away quicker. :)

Today is my timed mile. I am not allowed to run according to my dr. So it is my walk/jog mile. One week ago today I posted my first time which was something in the 18 min range. I have seen changes in my body. I sweat more, smile more, fit in more, sleep more and am just more happy with my life.

Breakfast- Peanut butter toast( im on a kick )

Lunch- Salad ( another kick)

Dinner( Carries house :) )

To all of you who are following my daily ramblings I thank you. I know that without this blog and the thought that others are reading it I might not be doing as well as I am right now. And I also know that through the help of the lord all things are possible.

On a side note, Aug 4 2010 I weighed myself and found out I was at my heaviest at 372 lbs. I am not proud of that number but I own it. This morning as I weighed myself I was blessed to find the number to be 267 lbs. I am so proud of the work that I have done. I am thankful for my health, and for the chance to better myself. For those that never saw me at my heaviest be greatful. LOL and for those that love and accept me then and now I thank you. Thank you for coming on my journey, thank you for making me responsible.

So here is to another day, another LBS and another step to the new you.

Day 4 Makeing it happen.

Goodmorning everyone,

wow what a crazy day yesterday. Someone broke into my apartment. Nothing was taken except my piece of mind. I am greatful to be alive and safe. I spent the evening talking to police so again didnt exercise. But will make it happen today.

Life is about taking what is thrown at you and doing the best you can for what you have. Right now I have a difficult hand. But that wont stop me from playing the game.

Breakfast. Peanut butter toast

lunch- salad

Dinner- Grilled chicken breast with itialian dressing and qunioa.

I did get up this morning and do 100 sit ups and 50 lunges. Not a lot but something.

I am also starting to crave things like m&ms. I may need to look at my sugar intake and see if I am even getting enough for my body. I have been sleeping better and my cloths are fitting great.

So heres to making it happen..

Day 3 OH BOY!

Just when I think everything is going so well, I hit a speed bump as Angie would put it. I am not going to let this stop me. But use it instead as fuel for my fire. I have a desire to win, to be better. I have a urge to bring you with me to the height of our success.

I will not quit becuase quiting means I failed. I will not fail because my desire is to strong.

Breakfast - Peanut butter toast and a cup of coffee

Lunch - Santa Fe Salad. (YUMMY)

Dinner- Open faced turkey sandwich.

Snack popcorn.

I didnt run yesterday I didnt even work out. I feel like I failed myself yesterday. But I know that today is a new day where I have the opportunity to redeem Me.

So heres to another day, another workout, another pound closer to my goal.

Heres to a better me.
