Thanks to those who responded to my last blog post I realise I have put way to much pressure on myself AND as a result the perfectionist in me threw in the towel. If I couldn’t do it perfectly why bother! Hah, did anyone realise that? Thankfully I did. I had stuffed up, given up, was fed up and wouldn’t shut up.
Today I have ate so clean my insides are pristine and I ran, punched, kicked, sat up, pushed up and stretched to smash 250 calaries (and quite a bit of sweat) in the half an hour after I got home from work. No excuses, I had a fitness test to do and I needed, really really needed to blow off some cranky steam. I forgot to put the gloves on for a lot of those hits because I had so much pent up energy from a bad day at work it didn’t hurt (well until it did hurt that is).
Do not give up when you have a bad day, week or month. Just dont give up! That is what I have learnt this week. Just because life throws you a wobbly there is no need to give up, you can give yourself a break though. Time and time again I give in to myself when I need to let that go and keep moving forward.
How can I go from desperately lost and ready to chuck it in to realising that life is too short to give up on myself? I reckon hormornes have a lot to do with all of this. I am kind of over peri-menapuase and I only just realised I had it a week ago. A bit of a groan from me right now. Years to go of this, life time to go of this lifestyle.
Stay strong, never give up on yourself, you are worth every good thing. I know I am!!!!!
