Just Freakin' Do It!!

I have to be honest with you - this exercising thing 6 days a week is hard.

Every morning I wake up and start to think things through - I had a bad night's sleep, I have my period, I could do my workout after work, it looks like it might rain. Any excuse will do!

But the one fabulous thing I have got out of this 12WBT is Just. Freakin' (or substitute your F-word of choice). Do. It.

Don't think. Just do. Don't justify, excuse, plan, imagine, whinge or wait to feel "motivated". Just do it. Hey - those Nike people really know what they were on about!

Just got up this morning after a shocking night's sleep/awake and wanted a sleep-in. But instead I JFDI. Sweated buckets in this humidity, burnt 300 calories and got my legs, arms and abs all set for another round of DOMS.

Just Freakin' Do It. JFDI. Love it.

Bring It On!!!

Yeah! Kirsten just wanted to join in on the baring-it-all fun!! She can be my own personal cheer squad.

So tomorrow is the first day of my first round of the 12 Week Body Transformation begins!! Bring it on, baby!

I've printed out my "nutrition plan" for the week. Been shopping - check out my super cleaned out, super healthy fridge:

Got my exercise plan - so excited to take my running to the next level and even excited about the all-over-body workouts! (yeah - I say that now - just wait for my whining and complaining about sore muscles!). All set for my tempo run tomorrow morning!

Pretty excited about this. Bring it on!!

A new low...

The weight is probably at a new high - but I neglected (!) to weigh myself this week. Maybe next week.

I had a lot of outside (read: paid!) work on this week. I had good intentions of getting out there and running - I even laid out my gear and set my alarm so I could get up and go. Alas, it is Sunday morning and there the clothes sit, lonely, abandoned; as they have all week. Getting toothpaste dripped on them.

The food/diet area has been very up and down too. I made too many "sometimes" food choices. Just this week I have enjoyed:

• Aportos chicken (it was a wrap - is that OK?)
• Dominos pizza (they ran out of Thin & Crispy bases - how does a major pizza chain "run out" of bases?)
• McDonalds

interpersed with:

• vegetarian quiche and salad
• steak and salad (and chips)
• chicken and veges

OK. What's a girl to do? I think I need a goal. I need hubby to decide for sure that we either not be accompanying him on the Alice Springs conference or that he won't be going either. Then I (or we) could enter the Sydney Running Festival Bridge Run. And do the training program. Maybe I should train as if I'm going to do  it, regardless.

Might be time.

If you have had a "slump" what did you do to overcome it??
