And while we’re focusing on all this “fresh beginnings” stuff…

I did it.  I signed up AND PRE-PAID FOR (the key for me…) a gym membership and a personal trainer, beginning at 7:00 AM on March 8th because…

I am the quintessential project manger… except, for some reason, when it comes to my own health and fitness. 

It is now time.  I no longer have to get up at 6 AM, work all morning, then work all day, and then be back online and working all evening.  I finally have the time to commit  to my health.  This is no longer optional; it is a necessity if I want to enjoy my life, my family, my career, and my future grandchildren.

Please remind me that I can do this!

  1. Yes, you can do it and will enjoy it once you do. It is empowering to take charge of one's health and fitness. I did a really good job of it during January, but have been slipping in February. (popcorn every night again)

  2. Good for you, Carol! Once you find a class you enjoy or just see positive results you'll feel good about it and become addicted! I took up a kick boxing class last week and was worried I couldn't do it, but it is working out well at my own pace. Of course, I'm struggling to lose my unfortunate holiday weight gain - next year I swear I won't do that again...

  3. It's all about getting in a routine. You will actually start to feel guilty if you DON'T go...I've been on that train 3-5 times a week now and seeing results really helps too, along with an improved diet (in my case) and supplements. Aaaand an ultimate goal never hurts either; in my case a second (and much bigger) tattoo bwhahaha. Seriously though good luck and enjoy it!
