Know Your Worth

by

I learned something after almost 42 years yesterday, I know what my worth is in a relationship/marriage. It took almost 42 years to realize it, but that is okay I now know. If you don’t know your worth, write down what you want in a relationship, how someone should treat you, the things you like, the things you don’t, the type of support you need (emotionally, physically and financially). This will determine your worth. Do you like when a man holds the door for you? Do you have friends you can go to and they actually listen? Do your friends know who you are and support you in the decisions you make? Are you hanging around negative people? This is for all relationships, family, friends, boyfriends, husband, wife, children, coworkers, etc. Do you know your worth? Once you come up with that list, you may need to start moving people out of your life or express to them how you want to be treated, guess what this will do? Make you a happier person. Why should you be sad or miserable for the sake of someone else? You shouldn’t. Life is full of ups and downs and sometimes you have to make hard decisions, but those hard decisions will make you happy in the long run. Part of living a healthy lifestyle is being happy.

 

Jumping Hurdles

by

THOUGHT: Did you know that when you’re in a race and you have hurdles to jump over, the only way to finish the race is by successfully jumping over each hurdle. You may bump it or even knock it down, but by jumping over each one you have a chance to win a prize. At the end you may not win by being the fastest but the fact that you finished is an accomplishment to be celebrated. So, whenever you have obstacles with weight loss, motivation, family, etc…face them head on and give your all. Know that your true prize comes when you rise above your obstacles and keep moving forward. The race is not given to the swift nor the battle to the strong but to him that endureth to the end.

2 Roads Choose 1

by

Always remember that exercising and eating healthy is a lifestyle journey. You will have great days and even weeks and other times they may be bad days or even weeks, but remember you are stronger than your bad days. Always pick yourself up and start fresh. No one has put a time limit on how fast or slow you should take this journey. You are doing this for you, so you can live longer, so you can be there for your children, grandchildren but most importantly yourself. Once your body gets used to eating healthier and exercising you will feel great. Once you change the way you think about what you are eating (not that you have to eat healthy 364 days a year) you will be amazed at the changes you will make in your life.

If you start out walking, that is great, it is a start. As your body gets use to walking, pick up the pace and walk faster, then begin to jog/walk, even it is is slow. You will gradually begin to get faster.

Never let anyone hold you back or keep you from reaching your goals. This is an amazing journey with a lot of life lessons. You will learn that you like doing things that you never tried or that you did not like to do and also eat. You can do this. Take it one day at a time. Have you set some goals to reach? Let me be more specific have you set some realistic goals to reach? How do you plan to reach them?

There will be many days on this journey where you will have to choose a path, which one will you take? The one that will take you back to the beginning or the one that keeps you moving forward. The choice is yours, chose wisely.

 

 

Today’s Workout

by

I did not workout this morning, between having computer issues and the videos not working, I decided to take my workout on the go at work. I ran from my job to the parking deck (about 3.5 minutes). Then I got to the parking deck, I was going to do stairs. There are six flights. Go up one set of stairs then another, one stair at a time, that is one. When I got to the top I did 15 pushups against the rail, then back down. When I got to the bottom I did 20 right jabs then some ab work, I don’t know the name of it, but we do it in 5 minute booty workout. It is the first exercise we do. Then I did that again. After the second time, I went up the stairs two stairs at a time. I did this twice. I than ran the parking deck. Up one level then another was one. When I got to the 3 level, it was blocked off, that was a good thing. Then I ran back down and did tuck ups for lower abs on the ground. I did this twice. I did this entire workout twice, the second time I reversed the order and started running the parking deck first. After I finished the parking deck workout, I jogged back to work. I am soo tired. I had a meeting to go to and was falling asleep. Here are some pictures, none of me doing the workout. The first picture is when I started and the last is when I was done . Getting it done where I can.
