This is not about deprivation; it's about making choices.
Today's Workout: Workout 7
I want to put a shout out to my readers -- thank you for continuing to encourage and inspire me. You are making this journey most enjoyable!
I'm posting this one a day late as I was out late last night and have had a non-stop day. Yesterday we were with great friends celebrating the engagement of two of our dearest (congrats D and R!!). I said in my inspiration above that it's not about deprivation, it's about making choices, and the reason I say this is because on this journey it is not about what I am giving up. Because I am not giving up anything! I am making smarter choices, I am not over-indulging, but I certainly am ENJOYING.
Yesterday I stayed on track during the day, knowing that my evening food and drink would be unpredictable. I made great choices during the day to keep my energy levels high and feeling great. At the party, I had a couple of Rum Punches (very yum, both batches!) and enjoyed a bit of everything at the food table. Did I feel deprived? Absolutely not. Did I make good choices?? I believe I did, because I stayed within my bounds and I enjoyed myself.
I was back at Workout 7 yesterday. I tried so hard to keep from modifying, but it's very very difficult. I did better than the first time though. I pushed through the Crow Pushups, I pushed through the one-legged pushups. I found it difficult to do the push ups after the cardio move, mainly because the cardio was also in a held plank position.
It was a perfect Saturday, I hope you all enjoyed yours.
