When Dawn and I started this blog in January, I would have never thought that we'd make it as far as we have. As time goes on, I love looking back at where we've been...where we are...and where we are going. I've been really open with you about my workout routines, including Squat Challenges, my Slow Carb Diet, and my healthy eating habits.
After I had my wisdom teeth out, I fell off my squat challenge wagon. I was doing T-25 with my coworkers on an inconsistent basis, and once spring break arrived, I took a break from working out. (Worst. Idea. Ever.) I indulged on the three trips I took during that break with my boyfriend, and the next thing I new, I came back from a fantastic vacation with all the weight I had lost. And then some.
This was a bummer. I was angry at myself for letting things go after I was on such a good track. Instead of me beating myself up (which I will admit, I'm still doing), I've decided I need to make a new commitment to myself to stick to a good routine. I need to keep up with workouts and healthy eating so I achieve the goals that I've been setting all this time.
Yesterday, I walked at the track again with my friend, Dana. We walked the curves, but ran the straight lengths of the track. Today, we weren't able to workout together, so I went to the gym in my complex and ran on the treadmill. I started using a 5K app to get myself into shape for a 5K, because I'm determined to run in at least one 5K before the summer. I loved the fact that it told me what to do...like a friend in my ear! The visuals on the app were great, too, because I need to know how much time I have left until a break.
I'm going to make a promise to you all that I'm going to stick with things this time. You may hear from me at times about my frustrations, but I'd rather get healthy and stay healthy with some accountability. Do you want to start fresh again with me?
