"You can have the results you say you want, or you can have all the reasons in the world why you can’t have them. But you can’t have both. Reasons or results. You get to choose."

Better Today

Sorry if this is detail you don't want (or need!) to know.

But I have indentified the culprit.

Hormones.

I have an appointment with a specialist in this area for March 1st.

In the meantime I will take it one day at a time and NEVER give up.

Thank you for the support and comments.

It helps keep me accountable knowing people are reading this blog!

I will be the best, healthiest, fittest version of me.

I will remember that this journey IS NOT OPTIONAL.

I may have meals, days or even a couple of days off track.  But they will be the exception.  And they will always end with me going back to what works.

~*~*~*~*~*~

PS

The past week reinforces that I MUST get my core strength done as often as possible because cardio would make me feel so much better right now.  Once a week is just not doing it for me.

But as promised to myself and others, I will do 3 sets of core work outs this week with 2 cardio sets next week as my reward!  (C25K week 1, repeated)

For those that have no idea what I am on about: I have a hip injury that is like tennis elbow.  It is made worse through use of my hip.  The first part of the 'cure' is core strengthening, so that I stop reinjuring myself.  Sadly for my hip I love cardio - especially running - and tend to push it too hard too soon.  I love cardio for the way it makes me feel.  Mentally, emotionally as well as physically.  I am not a fan of core work, especially planks.  Extra especially side planks.  But with cardio as my reward I will do my core work 3 times this week! (I did it on Monday already, so two to go).
