This is MY life!!!!

After my previous post I have spent a lot of time THINKING, not necessarily doing, mainly thinking about why it is that i want something SO bad but am not accomplishing it.  Well I've gained some insight on pinterest in the fitness section, with many different quotes and just health tips, and i finally read one that said, "If it's important to you, you will find a way.  If not, you will find an excuse."  That was exactly how i felt, if it was important to me then why wasn't i doing anything about it, besides just thinking about it.  So this past weekend i have set my motivation on FIRE!  I figured out that if i have a meal plan on what is going to be eaten at every meal of the day, then i will stick with it, its too easy to grab something unhealthy when there is not a healthy choice at my disposal.  It also makes the grocery list much easier, knowing i'm not buying things at random, and then letting them go bad, i'm buying things that actually go in a recipe for something that is on my menu for the week! :) 

I've been kind of working out like a couple times a week but with no schedule and i just went to the gym cause i thought it was what i should do.  Well last night, my boyfriend and i went to the gym and i was serious about getting in a good workout, mainly because i said i would get up early and go to the gym and i failed at that, so i wanted to make it up to myself.  So needless to say i worked my ass off, we made a commitment to be there for 40 minutes last night and i couldn't let him down or myself, we did stay and i burned 450 calories in 40 minutes, i was super excited, the nights we went before i was lucky if i burned 200 calories.  Needless to say, i'm very proud of myself the last couple days and not to mention i've been doing great with my food intake throughout the last two days also! :D 

I am getting my life back, one day at a time!
