Week 3

July 5th,
Oh man, after a very busy 4th, balloon festival, Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast (1 pancake, no butter but some syrup, 1 thin slice of ham, 3 bites of yogurt and orange juice), Freedom Festival Parade, Colonial Days at the Scera Park, a barbeque at our son and daughter-in-law's home, and the Stadium of Fire, I was feeling pretty spent when we got home last night.
When the alarm went off at 5:45 this morning, my mind kept telling me "You are too tired to go work out this morning." "You're too old to burn the candle at both ends like this". "Just send a text to your trainer and tell her you can't make it this morning." I was tempted... for about 5 seconds. Then I forced myself to get up and get going. I don't want to be a slacker.
Disappointment. I learned that you can't eat all the kettle corn you want and keep losing weight. Oh well.
Worked out from 6:30 to 7:20, nutrition class from 7:30 to 8:30 and then to work. I'm still tired, but I knew I would feel better about myself if I got up and followed through on my commitments, 5 days/week workouts, watch what I eat, attend all the classes that are provided for us as part of the challenge.


I can do this!
