Tipping Point

Well it has been eight days since my last post and I have been working out but slacking on my cardio. I see the signs of quitting in the future. So I will be posting daily again to help keep up my conviction and keep reminding myself...

Even if I FEEL GREAT and feel like my goal of functional fitness is within reach, now is not the time to slack. I have to make a conscience effort to follow through with my goals. Feeling good is not enough, I have a lot of extra weight that when gone will make me feel even better then I do now.

When I say that I feel like my functional fitness goal is within reach, I mean to say the flexibility and strength feel like they are there. I can pick up my kid with one arm and hold him, no problem. I trot up the steps at work with little effort. I just have to remember, like I said losing the weight will make a bigger difference and make me feel even better!

I think that I have mentioned this I a previous post but typically this would be a hard time for me. The small goals give me confidence and I feel like I can slack off and would eventually stop altogether. But this time will be different, I am blogging my experience, and am aware of the "feel good" issue and will not fall into that trap!
