I Didn't Disappear!

I fell off the blog bandwagon for a few days, but I didn't end my quest! In fact, I've been doing quite well! I've been to the gym 3 days this week already, I've practiced a few days, I bowled well last night, and I've been eating great. I'm so happy with the ways things are going now, and I can't wait to see some awesome results. (I've got a dress that I love but don't fit into anymore, and I'd like to fit into it again in time for the bowling banquet and graduation!)

Already, in the week or so that I've been going to the gym, I've had to push myself harder, using a higher resistance and incline when doing my cardio workout, and I've increased some of the weights another 5-10 pounds for a set or two. It's really motivating, and it really makes me want to keep going and keep improving.

I've been thinking about putting together a motivational playlist for my iPod - staring up at Paula Deen making butter-filled pastries isn't exactly helping anything - so once I do that, I'll share with you some of the songs I like to listen to so I can get pumped and moving quicker.

I also want to share this story before I go: How I Lost 130 Pounds. Another great success story, proving that this can be done, not only as a temporary, short-term goal, but as an overall lifestyle change. Baby steps are definitely the way to go, and eventually you'll see results, or notice that you can lift more weight, or fit into those old jeans. Keep working hard, keep eating healthy, and stay active. Don't give up, no matter how hard it gets.
