Appreciation

Well the 30DS kind of fell to the side, especially when the bikini series started. I honestly saw tremendously better results in the first week of the bikini series than any results I was seeing with the 30DS. I will probably do another 30DS (and complete it) in August or September when I'm closer to my goal weight and trying to crush those last few pounds. :)

Today is my reflection day and the Tone It Up trainers challenged us today to stop and take a minute to be thankful. I love how they stress the importance of being thankful - it's such an awesome reminder and it's always uplifting to remember why we should be happy instead of focusing on the negatives like it's so easy for us to do. 

1. My boyfriend for trying to adjust to my new healthy lifestyle
2. My friends and family for encouraging my weight loss
3. The TIU community for their inspiration and encouragement
4. My car for still working 
5. The ability to change my lifestyle. (Gym membership, juicer, internet, my health)

 Last week I missed the "Grab a Friend" workout for Saturday and the 45 minute walk for Sunday. I just made up the 45 minute walk for Sunday (plus did the 45 minute cardio jogging for Monday).  Also working on the #100bysummer challenge and personal challenge not to drink at all during the Cubs game tomorrow. :) Today I did 9.76 miles!
