Destined For Greatness

Tomorrow marks an anniversary for me... Two of them actually.

Most IMPORTANTLY, Ross. The man who is my everything and life and treats me better than I could have ever wished upon a star for. I am blessed beyond belief to have been with this man for a whole entire year! I will go ahead and tell you that I am a pain in the freaking butt. I am not always easy to be around when I am going through moody periods but Ross always hugs me and tells me it will all work out. Have you ever spent much time around someone who is going through a weight loss journey? Sometimes being hungry makes you angry.

Second, tomorrow marks 7 months of being consistent with my health and nutrition!

I have lost 39 pounds in these 7 months making me a completely new person. I feel like I have a whole new perspective on life now that I have given life a new meaning. Ross showed me what it was like to be happy and health and nutrition showed me what it was like to feel good in my own skin. I have never been at a better place in life than what I am in right now.

Many of you ask me "How do you stay motivated?".... Wanna know the true answer?

Most mornings I roll out of bed sore as heck and wonder why in the world I do this to myself. I am tired all the time. My stomach is ready for me to eat breakfast like ASAP and I struggle to get out of bed. This by the way is why I am NOT a morning workout person. Kudos to those who are. After I get past the sore abs and legs.. I look in the mirror and realize how amazing I look. How I am happy to see what I am looking at and how I don't despise my own body.

I used to look in the mirror every single morning and find something that I hated. I would grab my fat and say, "If only I didn't have THIS."... Guess what guys, most of that fat is gone! I haven't quite met my goal that I set from the beginning but I know I will get there. I'm not in a hurry.

If you're wondering how in the world I stay motivated enough to be consistent with my workouts and keep doing it every single day the answer is, 21 day fix. As you can tell from my pictures I do most of my workouts from the comfort of my own home anymore. I don't have time to go to the gym and spend 2 and a half hours there so I found a way to do it all in an hour in my basement. It's all about self discipline. Self discipline is a quality that everyone should have in life so I am only improving myself.

Are the workouts easy? Nope! I usually end up laying on the floor drenched in sweat after each and every one! LOL! Need proof of that? No worries, my phone takes automatic pictures of my workout and catches me doing so.

Have you ever felt the adrenaline rush that comes from a good workout? If you haven't I encourage you to try it. Nothing makes you feel like you have accomplished more than pushing your body and mind to it's limits for 30 minutes of excruciating work.

You have to WORK for what you want. It isn't going to come to you over night and it isn't going to change by sitting on the couch.

As much as I wish just as much as you do that it worked that way, the truth is it doesn't. Ready to start a workout from the comfort of your own home? I'm ready to tell you more about any of the Beachbody programs at any time of the day. Bring on the questions!

Let's do this TOGETHER!
