CONTINUING ON THE PATH TO HEALTH

I thought that since we have new project members and I miss all of my friends in the project, I would hit the blog too.

I want to support all of our newest recruits in their new adventures. The first week is a bit challenging, at least it was for me. I am not the most graceful woman so I am grateful to do most of this in my living room. Today's workout is a great way to start the week! Tomorrow's workout for strength training is always my challenge. I remember jumping rope as a girl and how much fun it was. This girl has grown up and wow, who knew jump rope could be so hard to do for any extended period of time.

One thing I want to stress to all of you, when you have a question about how to do an exercise or the correct form, make sure you ask Chris!! Once you do it right a couple of times it will seem easier. This week will be a challenge and you will be sore. On thing I suffered from, other than sore muscles is a lack of energy from cutting out the useless carbs in my diet. Sugar, white flour and junk food fought me hard the first two weeks. It wasn't that I wanted to eat them, but I was asking my body to burn what it had, not consume more carbs. It made me very lethargic and tired. BUT DON'T STOP!! If you experience this, just take a moment, have a glass of water or a cup of green tea and get focused on what you want to achieve. Once you are passed this phase you will begin to feel so clear, focused, happy and you will beam. Your hair, skin and eyes will show the changes you are making for yourself.

Just remember it's all about you. Not your partner, friends, family. It's about you. Once you get that in your head, then you won't struggle so much to fit your workouts in. Then you realize you are in a group of wonderful people and it becomes a group thing!!! Sharing, caring and all going in the same direction through a great transformation.

I am happy to chat or answer any questions you might have for me. I am hear to help you!!
