Day 3, but really Day 1 ......

So unlike yesterday I got my butt out of bed and got a workout in. Nothing too fancy, a good 15 minutes on the ellipyical, some lightweight squats, bicep curls and lateral raises and eneded on the rowing machine.  Hopefully I will get something doen this afternoon as well.  My goal is lose 5 punds in 3 weeks, to get my body back going again. 

Hopefully if your reading this, you have also got your workout in! Sometimes the hardest thing to do is to STOP doing something.  Why not just try to START something ... Take baby steps at first if you need to.

After getting to know myself, I know that in order for me to be successful, I need to challenge myself.  So, anytime I miss a day of doing at least 30 minutes of excercise, I am going to start my 40 day challenge over.  Now for some of you, this would mean that you would give up and say "what's the point?".  For others, this is the perfect way to keep you accountable.  Its all about knowing yourself and what your own motivations are.

Keep rolling with the workouts and healthy eating.  Try keeping track of your meals and fitness here.  I have found this site to be very useful.  When you really look at what you have been eating, it just might scare you into doing something about!
