I am closing in on the end of Boot Camp #3...

So I just read something from my Jillian Michael's newsletter today that made me smile.  It was about stretch marks on your belly.  Some of you may have these from the incredible experience of birth...but some of us our blessed with these weird marks from weight gain.  But Jillian but it so perfectly when she said, "Instead of worrying about stretch marks, though, try to change your perspective on them. I see mine as a badge of honor. They are from a time in my life when I was heavy, unhealthy, and unhappy. They now serve as a reminder to me that I can change anything I put my mind to. Nobody’s perfect, sweetie — perfect is boring."  "PERFECT IS BORING!"  AMEN Sister!  I could not agree more.  I will be one of those folks, like Jillian, showing the changes that are happening to me.  


I had a tough time this boot camp with oversleeping...that alarm clock issue again!  I could definitely tell the difference though in not having done a boot camp for a month...endurance was reduced quite a bit.  I am anxious to boost myself into a realm of working out on my own.  I have so many thoughts on the best way to get my calories burning.  These boot camps have truly helped me get motivated and push myself to achieve a healthier lifestyle.


I have issues with pushing myself when I don't have others to share the push with...so I am asking all of you out there take the challenge...no matter how little...challenge me to achieve something.  Whether it is running in a 5K with me, running for 3 miles without stopping, doing 150 push ups in one sitting, or anything you can come up with that will push me to continue. I would hope you realize that I expect you to do the challenge with me.  I am here to push all of towards a healthier lifestyle.  So bring it on...I am ready for the challenge.


To your health
