Hey friends - remember me?
I have been SO bad at this whole blog thing and I blame creating life, the newborn and now the 5 month old insomniac baby :)
All of ^ are excuses BUT when you’re in the thick of it my GOD are they life changing. Sleep deprivation is NO JOKE.
I unfortunately let the first excuse lead to the second and so on and so on until I had to hit pause on a few things before I completely lost my sanity…
It was in this temporary pause I realized a few things.
- Even this sleep deprivation will pass so enjoy the baby snuggles while he’s still this small
- Sometimes unplugging allows you to re-prioritize and set some new goals - or a new plan
- I have a pretty good life when I stop allowing the daily SMALL hiccups to affect my happiness (there will ALWAYS be laundry, bills, forgotten Pajama days etc…)
First step in my #gettingbacktomeMarch - I’m committing to a new program 100%
You may read that sentence and think “Big Whoop? You workout all the time.”
Truth is - as an instructor, although I do get a little sweat on, I am more focused on ensuring my students get the best workout they can in class time - I’m walking around correcting form, motivating etc.
That most DEFINITELY does not count as my own workout.
And in my recent pause I came to the realization that THAT right there is the reason for my funk.
Exercise and eating healthy is not a vanity choice its a THERAPEUTIC choice for me. I am literally a HOT MESS EXPRESS when I don’t get my own sweat on. So given the lack of sleep recently my workout was the first thing to go from the daily To-Do list. Know what else tends to go when you’re not working out…that whole “healthy eating” thing. Well thanks to a recent trip to Disney - otherwise known as “Deep Fry Everything Land” that stops NOW.
On March 1st Beachbody released a new program - 22 Minute Hard Corps (new killer program that is ONLY 22 mins a day - Coincidence? I think not) and I, along with some of my team, will be committing to this program for 8 weeks because you know what, it’s been ENTIRELY too long since I felt GOOD.
Lord help me if I can’t find 22 mins to give to myself - want to join me? Shoot me a note (FB - www.facebook.com/byoufit or email - byoufitinfo@gmail.com) and let’s commit right now to ourselves and keeping each other on track!
I’m doing it for the feeling I’ll have in 8 weeks...
