To Gym or Not to Gym?
Hmm’? I’ll be back on track with my trainer tomorrow. I can’t believe he left for two weeks as a Navy Reservist!! Just kidding! I am very proud of the service my trainer has given and continues to give my country. Not only is he an out-standing trainer, he’s also an amazing human being!! Thanks Eugene Lyle Smith!
I’ll be back at it officially tomorrow morning. I truly cannot wait. One of the best things (besides their knowledge) a trainer can give you is their respect and encouragment. Eugene provides both for me. So here’s to tomorrow morning; let the training begin…
GET UP AND GO . . . NOW.
Still one of my FAVS! Thanks
Weight Training Day!
Today’s gym time was needed! Stress-relief and over-eating topping the list. As I sit here thinking through what I want to blog about tonight, as well as how, I find myself thinking on an encouragment given to me today on Facebook from an old friend. He told me to learn to say NO! I remember reading it and thinking to myself, “well that’s a NO-brainer!” No pun intended, but it fits! Then I went on to read and take in the second part of his encouragment. He followed his encouragement to “Just say NO,” with “It’s not part of my journey to good health!”
Wow! Can I just say that that made an impact on me. I’ve been blogging here about “my journey” and what that means to me and my future weight, health, etc. Yet it took an old friend, (who doesn’t know I’ve been blogging) to point out that my NO isn’t just to the food that made me fat. My NO is to any thing, food or otherwise that gets in the way of me becoming happy, healthy and fit for my future. My future as a wife to Jack and mom to Noah, our “specially wrapped gift” from God who happens to have autism.
My life is about choice, and consequences. I need to begin making better choices for myself if I expect the consequences not to be the same again…
Happy Health Everyone!!
