hard workout week, phase 2, day 2

Man, that workout kicked my behind! I am sore from yesterday (which is welcome, because it means I am doing something right), and my daughter was still asleep so I jumped at the opportunity to work out before she woke up this morning. I am so glad I did! It feels great that I am done.

Something I did during my workout to help me complete it and stay motivated: I visualized the results I wanted. Before I started losing weight I visualized myself as a smaller me, and it worked. So, now I am going to visualize my stomach being completely flat, where you can see the muscles (not necessarily a six pack, but I want my stomach to look toned, even though no one is going to see it, its just want I want). I know I have muscles behind there because when I tighten my stomach it is rock solid its just hidden behind an inch or two of fat. I can grab the fat on my stomach. Want to get rid of that. Hopefully it is possible, even with how stretched out my stomach got with K (I have 100s of stretch marks to prove it, seriously). Another thing I tried visualizing was that my sausage arms are acutally toned (I have always had sausage arms, and hate them). So, those are my goals, and I tried visualizing them as I worked out. I hope it works!

Yesterday on Oprah (I don't watch it often, but I did not feel like doing homework yesterday) Jerry Seinfield was on it (someone I am not hugely fond of, but I felt like multitasking while doing homework), and he actually said something quite profound. He said after they discussed a time when Oprah was complaining about wanting some time to herself. He said "Its your's to decide." I loved that. Time is yours to decide how its spend. It is your's to decide what you make of your life. I loved that. So, as I and you go on with our day lets remember that it is ours to decide what we make of it. Hope you have a happy and fulfilling Tuesday today!
