Fall 7 times, get up 8!

aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Whew! Okay I got it out! I just want to scream to the WORLD how WONDERFUL I feel!!!!! :) *You thought it was gonna start out negative didn't you?...lol*

Back in January when I first started working out, I felt awesome. Then I got ADDICTED to exercise and felt even more incredible! Thennn...I hurt my foot and I kept working out on it...then I hurt it some more....then I slowed down and when I slowed down it's like the light shining inside of me dimmed a bit.

Well my light switch is back on and it's shining bright!!!!

Yesterday I woke up and did my 40 minutes of kettlebell, got in a 2nd workout of upper arm toning with Turbo Fire, and drank 124oz of water and when I woke up this morning I felt on top of the world again and started the routine over! I am going to break my plateau this week and I'm going to FIGHT and PUSH my way to my goal!

I got on the Wii Fit that I haven't been on in months! I was hoping it would tell me in that squeaky little voice that I was overweight and not obese BUT...it's no longer at the top of the O B E S E section (Obese is such an ugly word) It's almost in the over weight section and check out the change in my BMI!! :) I lost 36lbs since the last time I got on there lol

LOL funny story - You know how silly men can be when they looks for the right words to say? Well a while back, before this journey, I was complaining to my boyfriend about how fat I was and him, trying to be nice and make me feel better but not knowing the implications of the word for a woman, said "You're not fat, you're obese "  hahahahahah I died.. I couldn't stop laughing!! I was like uhh babe that's not a nicer word than fat. LMAO. He meant well!!

Anyway, moral of the story is every now and again, we all have moments where we lose motivation but the key is to get back up and keep on PUSHING! 

You don't drown from falling in the water, you drown by staying there!

Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail.  ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
