Hmm... Ok, maybe I should rethink that title... Sorry, I just ran out of daylight yesterday... If this is the rate that I'm aging, I'm in serious trouble!
OK, Focus Holly... What did I learn this week...
Oh yeah, this STILL isn't easy. Every day I think about curling back up into bed and sleeping more... I think about it for about 1/2 a second. Then I tell myself that it's not a choice. I HAVE to work out. Period. Paragraph.
I think that if I allow myself to say " I'll do it later today" then it just isn't going to get done. And then I would have cheated myself and let myself down in my commitment to finding health. Not acceptable. Not at all. I'm sure a lot of you are moms like me. This is the ONE thing that I am going to selfishly take for myself every day. I may be running around like a crazy girl doing things for others for the rest of the day until I crash into bed at night for sleep, but I WILL have done this one thing for ME. My legs might not be freshly shaved, my face may not be made-up, my pedicure may be in SERIOUS need of a touch up, but I WILL have done this for myself. And honestly, that feels good.
It's not easy. I don't think it's supposed to be. If it was, it would be too easy to give up on. Don't make excuses. Just do it.
Oh, and FYI- the Challenge posting on the left totally makes me feel like Forest Gump when I look at those totals... ;-)

Proud of you!!I need all the inspiration i can get, even if it's from "Hoooolllly is a CHIC-KEN!". Love, Your favorite sis Jg
Holly,
You should train for something... like a half-marathon. It's really cool to get a medal for all your hard work...
Also, you (and my husband and a few friends) have inspired me-- I'm going to do a beginner's running clinic! It starts the end of the month...
LOL! Amy read my next post!
