A strange month indeed

Thursday, January 31, 2013

Well, I made it to the end of January. It has been a strange month. I don't know quite how to rate it. I started the month with a lot of resolve and good intentions but they went away rather quickly due to health issues. A bout of the flu or whatever it was kept me inactive for a few days and back spasms plagued me throughout the month.
I managed to make it to the gym only a couple of times for half-hearted workouts but did manage to workout some at home almost every day. I can tell I haven't been as active as I have been.
I really blew the diet off on a few days and that is upsetting to me. I have been doing really well at maintaining up til this month.
Even with all the setbacks I managed to reach my weight goal of being under 200# by the end of the month. I was there on the 3rd of the month and i bounced up and down the rest of January. Although I am glad I made my goal I am really displeased with not seeing the results I know I could have had if I had been more diligent.
Time to put this month behind me and move forward in February.

    It is very frustrating when illness prevents you from exercising. It's also very frustrating when you give in to temptation and then have to face the music. There are a lot of us who have had to deal with both of these issues this past month.

Let's make February matter!

    Good Morning,
So you are human too.
Hate to break it to you, but your January has been lived, in some month in some year, by just about everybody.
So, Take heart. The plan...
Remember that each morning, or moment, is the first step in the rest of your life and therefore a "New Beginning" point in time.
Go for IT.
YOU can achieve your goals.
I have faith in YOU.
You are rebuilding your car.
.. AND...
You are rebuilding you.
Audra
