Hey Everyone,
Just checking in! Our routine is changing rapidly (evolving) and it's been a real exercise in fortitude to keep pace. The physical demands are unrelenting and your body does what it can...or what the mind tells it it can. And that's the challenge..the mind! All the familiar slogans--"getting your mind right", "made up mind", "mind over matter"..both bolster and infuriate you during this process. Your body wants to give up..and you can sympathize after 300 pushups AND a 3 hour workout day...but somehow you're up the next day ready for more. And I can't speak for anyone else but the ability to continue is nothing short of God! I'm thankful He's given me a spirit of resilience and determination and silliness with a smidge of crazy because without the combination, I'm sure I'd be at home justifying eating a 4 wing mild sauce, salt and pepper.
This is the hardest thing I've ever done. I have good days, not so good days and downright bad days. I'm physically tired but often don't sleep well. I'm hungry a lot but am not fulfilled by the thought of a "cheat day." It's really a trip what you go through emotionally and mentally. I've learned so much about myself during this process. This sooooo started with the desire for a better, banging body. The idea of a six-pack is seductive, no??? But now, it really is about the journey (Elena's been saying this all along:-)..And a hellava journey it's been. Can't wait to see where I end up. This is just the beginning!
