Wow!! If someone told me that February 2011 would be a test of tribulations I would have never guessed that it would have entailed all that it did.
Car trouble, family illness, relationship arguments, financial struggles, experienced some significant losses at work with regards to great people moving on and changing for the better and work Arggh!!!
I have cried, stressed myself sick, taken on more than I should have and yes neglected myself. I was reminded to say "no", take control of my schedule and make time for me.
What I have done is consistently is drink my water, reach out to those who are a support to me, and tapped into an inner strength to keep on going. During the last month I have not gained a POUND. I have actually lost three.
I have not made it to the gym as often as I would have liked but today I scheduled attending in my calendar.
If I didn't say that passion for this journey got a lil lost over the few weeks I would be lying. In every journey there will be trials and tribulations because the truth is that's life. In addition to my eating, and working out I really have to find a way to stop multitasking on such a high level that I have several incomplete piles. I also need to create a better work life balance and make the job work for me because right now I am working harder than the job.
My motto used to be one phone call at a time, one piece of paper at a time and I have to go back to that lifestyle.
I'm glad to be back blogging and I am grateful to those that are really vested in me and this journey that inquired about the missing blog posts.
Water check, passion check, gym tomorrow night!
