Overcoming is half the battle

Well I can definitely say that the 5th week was testing my patience and diligence that is for sure. Starting off that last Sat before weigh in my car broke down at the Bikram yoga studio. But I was determined to make it to weigh in and Kickboxing so I left my car there and was going to deal with it later. Well 6 hours later my car got towed. And to keep it short, later in the week I found out it was pointless in getting it fixed and had to get a new car. I was beyond pissed and I really loved my car but knew it was time. However, despite the challenges I push through, came to the Worx and gave it my all. Even with my nutrition, I didn't see a point nor did I even want eat bad stuff that I knew would just make me feel even worse. Before this Journey, I would have ate ice cream, cookies, chips, or something to relieve some stress but now that my life has changed I didn't even have the desire. It's amazing how changing your lifestyle you can overcoming those overarching battles that come your way.

As for the way that my body feels, I can say that I feel great and starting to feel like I'm getting in shape. I can feel a little less jiggle lol. My clothes are fitting a lot more comfortable and I already need to get a new belt because I'm at the last hole and it's still too big! OH YEA! I was so pressed when I noticed it. I can see my body changing and I'm taking it day by day. No matter what the numbers say, I'm doing this for me. And obviously it feels so good to see my hard work being noticed by several people noticing, especially at work since they see me everyday. Still nothing from my mom, but that is expected until it's a significant change for her to notice. Oh well.

I was able to make it to bikram yoga last week which I told myself I definitely wanted to make. I want to try to go on Friday this week to get a good stretch which I will need after the Worx workouts that I will be doing M-Thurs. I have been drinking a lot more water but I need to make sure I do better on the weekends. My goals are to continue what I've been doing, logging in myfitnesspal, follow Paleo nutrition, drinking more water, etc.

I am so thankful for the Worx team being beside me during this Journey. I am just loving the way I am changing as a person and accomplishing more than I would have ever thought. I am proud of myself and want to continue this lifestyle change forever.
