A Quick Update - HERE WE GO!!!!

Wow, it's been a while since I've written anything. I want to start with a little confessing. After all, confession is good for the soul, right? :) After finishing the Body for Life 12-Week Corporate Challenge, I've not been as close on plan as I should've been. I've probably only exercised a handful of times during the entire summer. Before you start throwing stones at me, I want to say I'm mad at myself for not continuing. More on that in a sec...

In late August, I found out that I won the Body for Life corporate challenge! Male 18-40 yrs old Grand Champion! I'm so proud of that. It was a big accomplishment for me. Since winning, I've had a little bit of conviction inside to get it going again. (there's just a 'little' bit of pressure to perform on me now..lol) So I'm getting my plan together this week and am ready to hit the ground running! I know BFL works and I'm excited to get it going again.

Now, back to being mad at myself...(this is hard to admit this publicly) after not being on a good, clean eating plan and regular exercise the last 4-5 months, my measurements have changed a little. I finished the challenge with a 31" waist measurement (at the belly button level). Now I'm at 35" (ugh!!) I finished the challenge at 150.5 lbs. I'm now at 158.5 lbs. Not the happiest with myself but I guess it could be worse. But here's the encouraging part for me. I KNOW the BFL program works and I WILL be back where I was in no time. I did HIIT yesterday to get things going. Felt good to be moving again! (little sore today..hehe) yes!!

So, Im not sure how many, if anybody, actually reads my blog but one reason I'm writing this is for the accountability of knowing someone could read it and more importantly, the possibility of encouraging someone who might need it. More to come soon so...here we go!!!!! :))
