Patience, and resisting an all-or-nothing attitude will help you a lot in attaining your goals.

This is such a great lesson for us hard-headed broads.
Good go, realcdn.
Honestly, I feel like I always fail compared to my own standards. As I'm running so hard for HIIT- all out effort - that I feel I'm going to pass out, and serious nausea when I'm done, I still feel like maybe I could've done more. WTF? Who's boss here, anyway? And that feeling of ~ not good enough ~ sets me onto a "poor me" eating binge. Thank GOD there's nothing crazy-caloric in the house anymore. (The kids ain't happy but at least I'm can't explode.)
The more I do this self flagellation of sorts, the more I KNOW I am my own worst enemy. What kind of weirdo sabotages themself?!?
My number one goal is to figure out WHY I don't want ME to reach my goals.
Sounds crazy, and maybe it is.
So, I guess what I'm trying to say is... I feel you.
And we need to figure this out.

If you have to ask, then chances are probably not enough just yet.  |

Kelly, I know it is a seemingly long endless uphill battle, but just think where you'd be if you did nothing for the next six months? Would you be closer or further from your goals?
Sorry you've been dealing with the sickies too ... I know how much it stinks!
Keep on keeping on ...

Okay, Tom this is my log, feel good answers only please LOL! J/K.
Yeah you are probably right!
Good news for good measurements. Got my bloodwork back from the doctor. I was cringing since the last year was hell on wheels and I said WTF with my health. So I do have stress which is gradually lessening.
I have been lifting again since October and watching and attempting to get my eats in order since January. My cholesterol was down and good woohooo. HDL really nicely up. Triglycerides perfecto. Blood pressure better too which he is okay that I am not hypertensive and will give me a chance to get it down with lifestyle changes. No thyroid, no nuttin.
So I am just a fat chick with no health problems.... whew what a relief. On to tweaking my stuff to get this fat off. |

The workouts are being created as we speak. Patience my dear Karla, patience.

Hi Kelly, I tend to get chatty in my log, too.  I don't usually post a workout unless I take the laptop down to the "gym," cut and paste, and put in new numbers and comments. I am sooo lazy!

Kelly-
That is great news on your bloodwork! Just one more reason to keep doing what you're doing.

Okay, I have made the decision to make new goals and make a new self challenge for myself. I have looked at my results which are suboptimal for my goals, while not bad, they were not my goals.
So tomorrow is a new day. I took my end of challege pics for my other forum and stats and I will begin anew tomorrow. I want to to a 2 month or equivalent in weeks chunk. Then I will do a summer thing etc etc.
So look for my goal! I don't know if I will post my pics here or not yet. I might. But I really saw more results for what I needed before NROL4W. That is not saying that it is not a good program, it is not what I need right now. I will be reading NROL this week and will be getting my new program from my trainer. I am putting my family on NROL fatloss.

It's a test that tells you how well you've managed your blood sugar over the past 2-3 months. |

Hmmm who knows. Blood sugar is not usually a problem for me unless I go lower. |
