Day One


I woke up this morning feeling less motivated than the night before.  However, I got up, ate some oatmeal and did a load of laundry.  I also read the Bible because Kimmy, a fellow follow througher, inspired me.   I made it to Zumba class at 11:30 a.m.  There were no spots left except for the front and the back and of course I couldn’t bear to be in the back, so the front it was.  I started like a Spanish Bull but ended like an awkward frat boy.  I just ran out of steam towards the end so the rhythm was gone. 

After the class on my way to the subway I remembered why I loved NY so much.  The sun was shining and I looked a butt mess but I felt great.

Tomorrow my goal is to go to Cardio Kick Box.  I am also going to prepare a dinner schedule for the week. 

Quote of the day:

“Making your mark on the world is hard. If it were easy, everybody would do it. But it's not. It takes patience, it takes commitment, and it comes with plenty of failure along the way. The real test is not whether you avoid this failure, because you won't. It’s whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere”
Barack Obama

  1. I love this quote. So inspiring, so true..just as you are my dear! On the workout subject, I don't know if you've ever tried spinning/cycling classes, but I love them, they are a great high intensity, low impact workout!

  2. Thank you my dear April! I am so intimated by spinning. It looks so intense to me. I will try it though. :)

  4. I didn't try it for a long time because I was intimidated too. But you are in control of the resistance you set, so you are in control of how hard you are working...and no one is the wiser ;) Work your way up!
