2.5 weeks ago I wrote about getting serious about my fitness.  How did I do? um…. yeah.  about that.

9/26-10/2

• Tuesday – I headed to Nike speed run (see picture proof)
• Friday – Lifted – it wasn’t pretty but I did it

10/3- 10/9

• Monday – Power lifted with my coach for the last time at Bucktown Crossfit because he’s opening his own gym (Congrats Dave!)
• Rest of week – Went on a 6 day vacation.  I did a lot of walking during my sight-seeing.  It may or may not have compensated for all the New England food I ate.

10/10-present

• *crickets*

OK!  So now that I am back to reality, I want to make an addition to my workout routine (because I’ve been SO great at keeping up with what I already have).  During the most tempting time of the year, I am going to go sober through  the holidays!  This will include no alcohol or sweets through Jan 1st.  I will allow myself 4 cheat days: Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve.

While weight loss is nice, I want to challenge myself to kick-start healthy habits.  If I can get through the next 2.5 months, staying focus on healthy eating habits and working out, I can get through anything.  The alcohol won’t be that big of a challenge.  No sugar…that’s like taking away my happiness.  Let’s hope I can last until the end of the week.

Wish me luck!
