Even Better

File under: Change, Kids, Workouts

It might be my imagination (or wishful thinking) but I swear the pants I am wearing today are just a little looser in the waist.  I have been slowly gaining control over my bad habits and restructuring my routine.  I haven’t conquered all my habits yet, but I’m getting there.  I worked out all weekend, even with the kids there, and it’s even fun when they join me and crank out a few push-ups beside me :)

I’ve eased back into weight training and did my One-on-One workout yesterday plus 10 minutes of kickboxing cardio.  My shoulders and legs are sore, just enough to know I worked hard yesterday and to know I am shaping my body back to where it was.  It’s not happening fast enough, of course, but I know that I will get back there.  And even better this time.

    YEAH!! Even better… Now THAT is something to look forward to! :) You’re gorgeous girl, I know you can do it!! Great job getting those workouts in over the weekend. Hey, I read something about those P90X workouts you were doing all the time. Demi Moore was saying the yoga one totally kicked her butt! And she’s in really good shape (or looks like she is!) So it’s obvious how totally awesome you are– don’t worry, you did it once, you can do it again.

    Thanks! I keep telling myself it won’t happen overnight, just like I didn’t lose (or gain back!) the weight before. Each day is an investment into my health and fitness and happiness.

    Ha Ha Ha. When you talked abt the kids getting down next to you and doing some of the workout with you, this reminded me of my friend teling me her cat got down next to her the other day and did stretches with her ;) Ur doing great, MJ and your being positive and you are moving in the RIGHT direction and making lasting changes. This journey wont ever be over for us and I commend all of your hardwork and determination ~~~
