Day 30~

Whoo Hoo - I have made it 30 full days and I am still going strong! I am so excited - my goal in the beginning was to make it at least 91 days, but it's said to be after 91 days, after you have been doing something for at least 91 days, it becomes a habit and just part of your schedule! Well, 30 down and 61 to go! I can do it, I know I can.

I was pretty pumped up about something and I have to share it with you - yesterday, I had so many calories left in the day- I couldn't wait to eat them when I got home, so I wasted them all on Chocolate yesterday... I know, how foolish!!! Especially after the day I had on Sunday. Trust me, it would have been SO easy yesterday to just throw out the book and be like "who cares". But I didn't. Satan was trying REALLY hard to take me down yesterday - Boy did I feel it! Even when I got home, I ate dinner and went up to get ready to go to the gym, I realized that both my sports bras where in the washer, not the dyer. Yes, I only have two and have to wear both of them. I have a MISERABLE time trying to find GOOD Sports Bras!!! Anyway, I threw on my jammy clothes and thought, well, guess I won't go tonight.... Went downstairs to throw the clothes in the dyer... while down there I thought, I have to have at least one more sports bra!! So I went back up stairs and I did find one that I could wear, it was only one but it was pretty tight, so it did the job. I got to the gym and I did 1 hour and 30 minutes of hard cardio!!! I burned 950 calories according to the calorie counter, I know people always say that those are off, but oh well, I don't care it says 950 Calories and I am taking it!! See it would have been so easy for me to keep eating chocolate yesterday, but I gave it up. It would heave been so easy for me to NOT workout last night, but I did....It would be easy for me to just quit, But I am NOT GOING TO DO IT!!!

Good friend of mine said last night, after I was telling her that I had hoped to have 10 pounds off in the first 30 days... she said "look at the tortoise and the hair - it's better to go slow and steady..." and she's right!! So that's what I am going to think about!! The hair looses, and the Tortoise, well we all know that he WINS!!! I want to be a WINNER, just call me Tortoise, or Tort for short.. LOL... OK. I am done rambling......
