Thanks Universe.....

I hope everyone had a wonderful memorial day because i sure as hell did .... Spent some lovely time with my friends and their family.....spent some time in the pool... and spent a lot of time EATING... and EATING.... dang it.....I told myself i would be better this weekend that i would start the cycle and get serious about  everything.... that did not work out for me at all..... my memorial started with a lovely stack of  the best pancakes i ever  had.....  and it just got worse from there...... by tuesday afternoon i found myself   at the nearest Chinese  buffet  at the desert table  eating cream poofs! I cracked open my  fortune and low and behold the universe had this to say

"If You Develop The Habits of Success, You Will Make Success a Habit"

It was  just the swift kick in the ass that i needed to get me back on the path.... well the path for most part 
fortunantly i did not gain any weight  .... all though i did not lose any either
....
yesterday i did my first Lifting session for the B4L.....and It was hard .... even with low weights it kicked my ass.... then i got home in time to squeeze in a couple of classes... which thankfully i  went because i got to  test for my shirt level in  MMA...


Officially a white shirt now.....  i know it is just a shirt but i paid for this in  hard work and sweat! looking forward to  continuing to learn and improve!

Andrea and   i  had a celebratory swim after class.....

 Getting strong and staying Active!

  1. As someone who has struggled with weight ALL of my life.. I admire your determination. It's SO hard to keep going. This I know, because I tend to fail daily at it. My habit of procrastination has come up to bite me in the ass for sure. I'm almost 30 and if I don't start now it's gonna be 10x harder to lose in a few years. But when I get home from work I don't force myself to be active. There's always an excuse. So to see you up and about.. even admitting that despite having had a rough day/weekend, you'll be back at it again.. that is truly encouraging. Please keep going at this blog Mo.. cause you have definitely inspired me to not only make smaller changes to my daily routines, but to stop putting off the big ones...

    So when I get home.. I'll be reading B4L... I've had it on my shelf for 2 years.....

    ..did I mention I'm GREAT at procrastination?!

    1. Taylor .... your support means the world to me right now... every bit is just more motivation man! Give B4L a read man ... it seems to me that it is some good guidelines and a good starting point for anyone because anyone can do it and you do what you can do.... one of the biggest thing for me man ... i was constantly comparing myself to everyone around me and putting impossible expectations on myself ..... you can't expect to be able to run a 5k the first day out....well at least i can't..... once i stopped doing that and started reminding myself that i just have to do my best and keep trying to do a little better every time, that is when my whole mind frame changed.... The hardest part is just getting up and getting moving .... once your moving well.... newton was right ...a body in motion stays in motion!
