Completed my first serious training session yesterday evening. Quads and triceps (yes, a strange combination). But effective. Completed it in approx 50 minutes - fast and furious with little rest between sets to maximise my time as I didn't get to the gym until almost 6.30pm. Then did 45 minutes on the treadmill with spaghetti legs! And wasn't that fraught with danger knowing my predilication for falling down on flat surfaces when my legs are steady!
But it felt good. I was nauseous and exhausted when I got home but it felt really really good.
Bring on today!

I Will......
I will accept responsibility for my actions.
I will proclaim to MYSELF my innate strength, my beauty and my power.
I will prepare each day for the next day.
I will make no excuses for myself.
I will promise myself success and follow my dream until it becomes reality.
I will stop hiding behind my weight and my past. They are no relevant anymore.
I will choose my future and my path and not allow it to be dictated to me.
I will set aside time each day to look at my goals and envision how I AM achieving them!
I am what I say I am.
I will dress for success and I will act for success.
I will proclaim to MYSELF my innate strength, my beauty and my power.
I will prepare each day for the next day.
I will make no excuses for myself.
I will promise myself success and follow my dream until it becomes reality.

I am what I say I am.

Change is a good thing
My life is changing. It feels weird. It feels scary and it also feels good. I need the change as much as I thought I needed my comfort zone.
I'm one exam off finishing my personal training certificate even though I'm still overweight. I'm actually really proud of myself because I thought I might quit half way through. That's the usual way I operate.
Today is a public holiday which means I have some time to organise my week. I'm writing my To Do list and I'm going to get everything done today. It will make me feel more calm about my week and I can then cope with everything that hits me.
I've also just stepped right into a personal fear of crowds by booking a ticket to the MUSE concert in Perth in December. I feel really panicked when there are lots and lots of people around me but it's time to step out and face it. That may seem strange to a lot of people but for me it is a VERY big thing.
I'm proud of myself...not for anything in particular...just feeling proud that I'm on my way to achieving my personal goals..
