I'm still on track, but it's been difficult with my crazy, hectic life. However, it's times such as these that show our true test of integrity, strength, and commitment level. These are circumstances when we are most likely to give up. But if we just hang in there, and keep our level of commitment to our highest standards, then we will soon come to realize that we have it in us to be conquerers, warriors, and positive people. That is what will carry us through stressful times, and eventually, will help us to acheive our goals.
I got to babysit my new baby granddaughter, Lilyanna, this past Friday and Saturday. She's such a beautiful blessing! breanna was there Friday, and we hung out and watched movies and had pizza. Yes, pizza. I had one slice. And it was good. It's been raining here in Southern California for the past several days, so I have not been able to get my outdoor cardio done... so I've improvised to indoor cardio via DVD's. Jillian Michaels, The Fit channel, and Jackie Warner have all been kicking my ass in my living room... on the television, of course.
This week I will be doing weight training at home, and as soon as the sun comes out again, I will be riding my bike and power walking/jogging in the mornings. I have discovered that my body seems to respond better all around when I lift weights in the evening instead of the mornings. I feel better, I sleep better, and just feel happier. I don't know what it is with the mornings. I am just one of those people who has to wake up in silence, have my coffee, then eat, then do my office work. I don't enjoy working out or lifting weights in the morning. It's almost as if my brain is saying, "I can't deal with this right now..." Lol, so, I will just go with what my body is telling me. Seems to be working
Please join me on my Facebook Cooking and Recipe business page at THE IRON KITCHEN... this week I will be teaching on how to properly create meal plans, shopping lists, as well as suggestions and recommendations for bulk cooking and food prep. This is the most important part of my weightloss and health journey. Without planning ahead and being prepared with my food and menu choices, I would never be able to stay on task with my clean eating. I know this first hand!
Eat Clean, and Train Mean!
