This guy, Paul, loses 80 pounds with PX90!
I could never do PX90 - I'm more of a yoga/jogging girl, but I'm so motivated by his success!!
I will definitely raise my treadmill speed up a little tonight as I think of Paul!

On the first day....
This was the beginning of a recent blog draft:
"So I am going to write. Maybe here, maybe there, maybe everywhere. For now, all I know is that my brain needs space, and this is the only way I know how to give it what it needs..."
That was 2010 me, overwhelmed and stressed; looking for an outlet in friends, family, the blogesphere....thinking writing was the only way I could vent.
And then came January 1, 2011. The first day of the new year. The first day of my new outlook on life. The first day of the new decisions I will make everyday. My decisions to not eat processed food. My decisions to take part in stretching and cardio everyday. Whether it be hot yoga and a dog walk or yoga in my bedroom and a 3 mile run. My decision to calculate my finances daily. The decision to live a healthy lifestyle and prevent reasons to vent.
1/1/11 was my day one. It was my decision starter. When's yours?
Living life to the fullest by living a full life

Best Morning I've had in a long time!
I was visiting this health website and there was a poll:
"Why do you work out?"
b) My body is in pain because of the extra weight, so I'm doing it to help myself
c) I don't like the way my body looks
d) Just to stay healthy
e) Oh Hell, all of the above!
Umm yea - I totally chose (e) and 60% of the poll did also.
Holy - shamoly!
I went running yesterday on my beautiful San Antonio River and it sucked! I was in so much pain! I ran with a friend, who helped push me but the actually running process has never been easy for me.
However, waking up with my alarm this morning - was very easy, walking that same 2 miles with my dog this morning - peice of cake, and coming into work not needing coffee just to be pleasant....well that's just the way it is supposed to be right?
This is a good thing. I'm not going to let this feeling go

"SLAP"
That's the sound of me slapping myself across the face and telling myself to stop putting off running and just go out there and do it!Holy - shamoly!

I'll be exploring different running paths throughout the river and this great city of San Antonio. I'm really looking forward to running Eisenhower Park.
Kinda what my running path looks like:
