9/18/2008 - Late night thoughts
I should be sleeping as it’s 1:30 AM right now and I have a 7:30 AM class. However, I am wide a wake as a BAT! So, naturally, I decided that I would catch up on my blogging.
Before I forget, I wanted to tell you all that it’s still not to late to join the 3rd Turbulence Training Transformation Contest. According to Craig you can join today, tomorrow, or two weeks from now. However, you will not have the full 84 days to transform your body and try and win some money! You can find out more about the contest HERE.
I submitted my pictures on Sunday night at about 11:50 pm. You know, this time around I didn’t think they were too bad. I mean, I know I need to get fitter and I would like to for my love handles, cellulite and junk in the trunk to be gone forever, but i’ve realized that those thoughts do not consume me any longer. I don’t know when the switch happened… maybe a couple of weeks ago.
I started a complete purge of all my belongings. I called it, “Simplifying Life.” I let go of so many things: clothes, papers, stuff… almost everything. This also included my skinny jeans. I was so tired of comparing myself to how I used to look. Living in the the past is not pretty and I think that is what had been holding me back for so long in so many areas of my life. Coming back to the present, I have decided that there is more to life than just counting calories, obsessing over how I look or how many little rolls I have. I think God has finally freed me from a low self esteem! Wow! That’s sooo amazing! I’m finally feeling beautiful for the 1st time in many many many years. Even if I am wearing a size 14/12. That is such a HUGE break through for me! I know that this contest will only help my self esteem more and help get my body back into tip-top shape.
Since June I have already shed 22 lbs and many many inches all over my body. So my goal for the next couple of months is to lose another 15-20 lbs and fit into a size 6/8 jeans by December 12th, my birthday.
Well, it seems like i’m finally getting sleepy so it is, as my nephew calls it, “nighty nite time” for me. I will post up my contest plans this weekend and a review of my 1st week of Turbulence Training as well.
Until then…
Be fit, be healthy & God Bless!
