Day 8: Just Keep Going

So, I'm going to be honest, and I haven't been doing all that well with my nutrition and workouts. I've done one official workout and have been tracking my food and water intake. I know I need more drive so I'll work on that today.

And I haven't been doing much in terms of the weight loss group challenge's daily assignments so I'm catching up on all that on here, today! I did the 12th's assignment and did my measurements. That's posted on another day.

13th's Assignment: What’s one thing you are doing right?
Well I don't feel like I'm doing much of anything right. I have been tracking my food and I have been eating as opposed to really badly only eating once or twice a day. So I suppose that counts?

14th's Assignment: Where do you work out? Home or Gym? Do you follow a program?
I workout at both the gym and home. I found a few programs and have fused the two together to get my workout routine or weight training and cardio.

15th's Assignment: A quote that inspires you or that you love.
I find a lot of inspiring quotes. I think today's is something I need to keep in mind:  Positive people also have negative thoughts. They just don't let them control them.
I need to focus and be positive and don't let the negativity of everything and everyone affect me as much as it has.

I think I really need to get a trainer. I've been thinking about it for a while now and I just need to do it for me! I need to cutback in other places of my life and just do it. I think I've found a trainer but I'm still shopping around. Maybe my other gym will have other people there. I just need to keep motivated and keep going.

I also just need to keep motivated with my business. It's not going anywhere and I know I just need something to get me going, to get me focused on work. I need to work on more videos. That's one of the goals of today - re-do my welcome video and do a mascara application video.

I have so many things to work on and I just need some motivation and to just keep going (If you can't tell, that's my mantra today)!!!!

Back Again

Hello again! It's been a while since I've been on here. Mainly because of life's ups and downs. I've been feeling really low about myself and decided I needed to change. Hopefully it takes, or more like hopefully I'm ready to sustain change. What's changed for me? I'm at a professional part in my life where I've been feeling stagnant and want more or change or both. And personally, I got to the point where I got too comfortable and just stopped focusing on my health goals/gains cause my partner was okay with me the way I was/am. Which, I know, is super awesome and fortunate but I didn't like the run down and weighed down feeling I had when literally and figuratively. So, for the last few months, I've been doing a dietbet, which I'm not great at. I feel like I always get close to my goal but never get there, which would've made me feel down in the past. But now, I just take it and move onto the next month and hope I make it then. Alo...

BEASTing Out

Well, I finally did it. I took the plunge into Body Beast. I like to lift so I thought this would be fun. And I'm sure it is fun if I didn't feel like puking during the workout. It's been a while since I've had this happen. I thought I gave myself enough time in between dinner and my workout. Maybe not? Or was I just working out that hard? I didn't feel like I did. It was a Build: Chest/Tri's day so I used light weights for like all my sets since I tweaked my left shoulder and didn't want to train one side heavy than the other cause I'd like some symmetry. Either way, I'm gonna keep on. Tomorrow is Legs and I do love a leg day, even if I hate it the next two days after. I'm still doing the Les Mills classes and videos. I did Body Pump this week. I should've taken that class as a sign to go easy on my shoulder now that I think about. I'll probably do some Combat or Sh'bam again for some cardio to go along with my Body Beast program. ...

Derailed In December And Still Off The Rails

So in December, I had every intention of being better, but it hasn't been going exactly as planned. It's actually been kinda bad. I've been a bit derailed. Maybe it was the holidays. Maybe it’s because I’ve been a little bit down and depressed. Maybe it was the weather of the season. Maybe it was and is all the working I've been doing. Actually, now that I think about it, it's all of the above on top and being in school this semester that’s in my way. My workouts have been sporadic. Work has me drained more than usual. And being anemic and having poor nutrition as of late hasn't helped either. I don’t sleep as much because I work too much. One job has me up at 3 a.m. And the other job, when I work, has me up till like 11 p.m. If I schedule my workouts before work, then I’ll be up at like 2 a.m. I need to find a balance and change. So to kind of start to change off things, I took on a trainer. It was going alright I suppose until like last month. I starte...
