15-04-2012 12:25 - ok, be prepared for an Essay, lol

Well today I slept through my 6am alarm (damn going to bed too late, but you get that with 3 kids 5 and under, I enjoy my 'me time' sooo much at night, lol

Anyway the kids rocked in at 7am and woke me, so I got up and left Daddy to deal with breakfast so I could get my daily workout in! I must say how awesome my hubby is and such a support!

So I rode my bike for 2.5km and left it at the bottom of a very rocky hill (we live on pretty big farm, so unless a cow or kangaroo decided to take it for a ride, it's safe lol)

I then proceeded to walk for 8.5km up and down hills/rocks/gully's before riding the 2.5km back home....so 12.5km for me is a personal best and really couldn't of done it without being inspired by an awesome woman I met on this site! Dallasmum is my role model! She is freaking amazing (and ran her personal best of 21km today, woot woot!!) she also has a weightloss journal on here that is soooo worth reading!!

And to improve my day even more, I weighed in at 84.45kg this morning!!!!! I am freaking estatic! Oh and super surprised I can still walk! Bahahahha, cause the legs were getting jellyfied around the 9km mark!!

I can't explain why my head is in this awesome headspace right now, I don't feel like I am hyped up on motivation or overly trying to get fitter, it's just becoming so normal for me to JFDI! (Just F***ing do It) I am not dragging my self out of bed, just getting up and going, but I am truly grateful for the awesome women I am surrounding myself with in forums and on FB groups with the same desires/fitness goals/lifestyle changes/challenges that I have!

I have also discovered (through Dallasmum) Fat 2 Fit radio podcasts!!! Omgoodness the information is invaluable! Instead of listening to music I now listen to their podcast shows which make my runs/walks/bike rides fly by whilst learning so many new tools!

And the awesome ladies in my Bubhub due in June 2010 group (we all chat daily on FB now) also inspire me with their transformations while doing Michelle Bridges 12 week body transformation 12WBT, the results have been amazing and have made me desire to make my body the best version of itself that I can! This is all for me, no one else, my 'selfish' time to concentrate on making a difference in me!

I love that my clothes now fit better and I can wear things I havent worn for years (due to pregnancies/bfing/weight gain etc!!!)

Oh and another mention/plug is the awesome app I have been using - Myfitnesspal, it makes tracking calories easy and keeps me accountable as I had it on my iPod/smartphone/laptop, so just update it whenever I eat! (writing it all in a notebook is also a great idea if you don't have the app!)

Ok, I have bored you enough with my chatter! But I can't help it! The more I read/learn the more my head is focused! And if that can help even one person want to be a better version of you, than that's freaking awesome!!!!!!
