Yo DaVita,
It is about 9:30 Sunday night. I hope you all had a nice weekend.
Zero diet cokes today! And healthy and reasonable eating.
As to exercise, also strong. My younger brother came over, and we watched the Packer football game as we worked out and caught up with one another.
I like to do some of my exercising with other people. I find it often helps me go longer and/or harder, or just makes it more fun. And it is a nice way to maintain friendships, or create new ones.
As to the numbers, I did the big 42 quality minutes on the lifecycle. 3 sets of bench press, 3 sets of curls, 1 set of crunches, and a lot of stretching. Total minutes of 75 minutes of good stuff!
So I think I had a pretty good week overall. I will get the Tracking Sheet out in the next day or two.
Tough travel week coming up. San Francisco meetings tomorrow, Denver Tuesday, Philadelphia & Connecticut on Wednesday, Boston on Thursday & Friday. The long flight home on Friday night is the toughest part of it. Lucky I love my job!
We are within about 8 people of reaching 800 health partners in MM II. Let’s try to encourage a friend to sign up. And I do encourage you to try submitting an entry for others to read — you will probably be surprised how it helps clarify your thinking, and make you feel more a part of a team/community effort, not just off by yourself.
One for All,
KT

Yesterday I end of all my excuses of why I could not find the time, energy or money to get healthy. I had to totally be honest with myself and admit that working out alone and at home was not an option. I needed to find a place that would hold me accountable. I took a kickboxing class at a gym that specializes in kickboxing and martial arts. I must say that this was by far the hardest workout EVER in my life. It was a 60 minute class and I could barely walk when the class was over. I hesitated joining because the gym is about $100 a month, a lot more expensive then most of the more popular gyms around. But I realized that my life and health is worth a $100/month. So when you compare $100 a month of gym membership to medical bills as a result of an unhealthy lifestyle… I chose the gym membership. Yes it’s an inconvenience, yes I’m a mother, and a wife, yes I work a job, yes I’m tired…. but I’d rather be healthy and have the strength to do and be everything that is required of me than to be sick. So for those teammates that are not taking this seriously, for once, put yourself first and take your life and health serious. Good Luck!!!
