I'm a Loser!

In so many great ways I am a loser!!!! I am finally losing weight! the inches coming off were great but the scale is moving.
I have been trying different workouts, keeping busy, remembering my vitamins, drinking more water and just enjoying the nice weather. There really never is a dull moment in my life and I like it that way.

I wanted to talk to you guys for a second about pushing yourself. No one can do it for you. Sure people can motivate you. but you have to find the will in YOURself to want to push yourself.

A lot of us find it harder to lose weight now that we arent youngens anymore. Its just a proven fact. The older we get the harder it is to lose weight. There is not a day you can simply say- "Im just goin to walk today" If your goal is to lose weight you truly have to dig deeper and find what is going to push you. Do you want to live longer for you kids? Turn on your spouse? Fit into that summer bikini? Get off meds?? You have to find what drives you and go for it. I have always tried to be motivation to my friends and fellow workout partners, I do my best. but I cant do the workout for them. I cant get them to get moving. They need to find their drive FIRSt and then join me. You cant think of it as a chore. You have to enjoy yourself. You have to LOVE what you do and want to do more. I try new things all the time in workouts. I let nothing scare me in fitness. I love trying it all. If I dont like it, I try something else.
Shaun T has a new workout...Asylum. I am waiting for the right moment to purchase it (when I have money) and i will be attempting another Insanity type workout. I want to challenge myself everyday. I want to know what I am capable of.

I dont really worry about the scale anymore. I look at myself in the mirror everyday and I know I am doing SOMETHING and I know I am doing my best and giving it my all-that is a moment to have people!!! Trust me. When you can look in the mirror and you can look back at yourself and say WOW I achieved greatness today...You have reached your goal.

I will be 30 this year. It takes 10 times more work to achieve my goals. But I dont quit because I didnt reach them, I try harder. I refuse to let myself go. I refuse to give in.

Attitude is everything. So what if you slip up and eat some cookies or drink a Coke...WHO CARES! As long as you get right back up and do something to earn that treat. You cant keep digging yourself a deeper hole and expect to jump right back out.

You got yourself to a place you didnt want to be over time. Its going to be time before you can get back there again. but YOU have to start. YOU have to do the work and YOU have to WANT it!!!!

I hope this blog got into some of your heads. Please feel free to share my blog with others. I want to help you in the best way I know how..
