Day 1 /Round 2 " Fix Extreme" New Chapter

Hey there. I know I haven't been here in several weeks. I was able to finish up the last round really well and get results of 5lbs down and 2 inches which was really all I needed (left from winter bulk). We had a lot happening with school winding up and my middle daughter heading off too Moscow as she does each year .

But I'm committing again to keeping you abreast of my progress this next round. Because there's something special about re-committing. It was so amazing last time; I honestly felt I needed to do it again! Hence, here I am...

So this morning I did Cardio, and I will be totally honest that I only did 20 min of the 30. But I had a rationale. I knew tonight I'd be teaching group fitness at 6:00 for 50 minutes and that's honestly quite a bit. I wanted to make sure I don't overdue it. Because there is a tipping point, over which results go in reverse. Especially for us women over 40, we need to be careful. Overdoing cardio when doing a specific competition eating needs to be treated with care. I felt feat though being part of it on Day 1! My team is with me too, and I'm loving this new momentum we had. You see it's not about what shape or weight someone is. When I look, I only wonder about how that person 'lives'. Are they loving and living life? I mean REALLY doing it or just going through some motions? There is a difference. I wonder if that person wants longevity and whether they want to be around healthy to share as much as they can with that beautiful body that was given them. To cherish it, feed it, help it to run at its potential - as it was intended . The number is less important to me than the health goal. Heart and pulmonary Health, endocrine health... Keeping it going and vibrant. When I look at someone, I think 'can I help them avoid the expense, the tragedy of health care.' We can't always escape the random thing that could befall us. That's true. But we can control that which WE DAMAGE intentionally. So if I can help slow down that process for someone- help them turn it around, my job will have been done. That's what matters.
