It's tough out there!!

It's tough to get fit, the world is full of distractions and enticement to eat unhealthy or just be lazy!!
I have managed to do some physical exercise the past four days and today I was planning a swim, but it might just turn into a run/walk outside, with work, house, family and friends, it's hard to just stay focused on the goal.
I feel if I lose 10, I will feel I have begun to beat the beast so to speak, so I am going to keep my sword drawn to slay the beast of impluse eating and the desire to sit in my comfy chair instead of go out and run.  This is when it's the toughest...the first two to three weeks in because it's to easy to say this is not worth it, or I will never lose weight anyway.  Your mind has to take over where your body is weak.

Note to self: you are so much stronger than you realize! Smack!! Wake up, you can do this!!

First Workout in two months

Well I went to the YMCA, did 20 min racewalking on treadmill, 25 min upper body weight training and finished with 20 min on stairmill, felt like barfing after stairmill, but pushed my limit and happy to be back.

Starting is the challenge

Beginning the challenge to get fit, lose weight, or start a training plan to a goal is always the hardest...  It is much easier to sit in a comfy chair, get a bag of chips or cookies and snuggle up to watch a movie or football game in your comfort zone, but the results 20 min later are regret and another wrong turn on our goal path.
Each day we have a choice to make.  I hope each of my followers the best with their choice today!!  What is your choice?!

I am going to post my progress each day...Good, Bad and Ugly.  I hope my followers will do the same.

There is a website that you can click on to add your daily diet and activites if you wish...  I'm no good logging my diet, but I will try, maybe that is why I haven't had success in that area.

It would be easier for me to wait until January 1, 2012 to start this plan but then I would have another 10lbs on to lose...so today I will "Begin Again!"

FYI~~I want to vomit every time I look at my running picture from this summer and would love to take it down, but I won't so maybe it will keep me on track to my 35lb weight loss.

Later today I am posting my goals, I hope you will too.  It would encourage me to be a part of yours and watch your progress.

~~~Always Keep Tri~ing!!!~~~

BeginAgain-each time you get closer to your goal!

It's difficult to try and fail, but each time you fail and pick yourself up to "BeginAgain" you get closer to the accomplishment you desire.  So here we go...
The challenges:
Lose 35 lbs-seems like a lost cause, but will "BeginAgain!"
Set-Goals For 2012
Set up weight training, classes, get swimming going on again, decide if I'm going to be a race walker or runner???

Decided to sign up at the YMCA and cancel my Bob's Gym membership for more training and race options.

So here we go...BeginAgain!!!
