In my nightly Pinterest surfing I saw this quote, "If your dreams don't scare you they aren't big enough." How very true.....
My dream?? Losing 100 pounds and it scares the ever living day lights out of me! So many "What if" questions.... What if no one likes me? What if I look too different? blah blah and blah but mostly-- What if I can't do it?
There are millions of doubts in my mind about this, but honestly they just have to be pushed to the side because it's what I want to do, and I know deep down that I can and will one day achieve my goal!
Tonight was GRIT of course, it's Thursday isn't it? ha! This week in GRIT has been phenomenal... if I may say that about a work out! Tuesday we did PLYO and if you know me, you know I'm scared of jumping on the step we use for this. The height makes me nervous and I'm afriad to fall. So on Saturday I managed to jump on the box once.. ehhh good enough for that day.. but Tuesday I knew I had to do it! I didn't do it every single rep, but I sure did it more than once. I am thankful for my team who had my back and Tracy who knew I was struggling and told me just to go for it!
The cardio workout we did tonight was the exact same one we did my VERY first GRIT work out. It was amazing the difference I saw tonight. I was highly impresed with myself :)
I have learned so much about myself through all this. I've also learned a lot about people. I know I talk about going to the Y and my GRIT team a lot but they support me. They push me to go beyond the things I think I can do, they motivate me and one thing I know is that they genuinely care about me. There is nothing "in it for them" when they ask about my progress or whatever it might be.
Today's 4 x workout has kicked my booty! Almost time to head to bed and do most of it again tomorrow....
Thanks for reading!
Love ya'll!
