Slow Recovery

I'm slowly on the mend. I'm feeling better mostly, I just can't really breathe because my nose is so stuffed (grossness I know). 

So I haven't had any deadlines really for my fitness regime. I think I'm going to put a short term deadline on it.  My college homecoming is in about two weeks, and seems like a good of time as any. So I'm going to say its two week bootcamp time once I can breathe through my nose.

Looking forward to getting started again!

Top 5 Reasons I Want to Be Fit

1. Pride

What can I say? When I look into that mirror I want to be like "Hey girl, check out that sexy bod." I want to be proud of what I look like and comfortable in my own skin. Call me vain or shallow I don't care you know everyone thinks about body image. I have always had a very positive body image and I want to keep it that way. This is why I don't look at the scale. Weight is a number that means nothing to me. For me its when I am in a bathing suit and look athletic.

Exercise Some Self-Control

I don't think I've ever kept a New Year's resolution. Why? It's probably a mix of I never seem to come up with good ones and I completely lack self control in most aspects of my life. So I decided to see what I could do about this and did a little research.

Willpower is a muscle

 

Well this is surprising. I always pictured willpower as something more ethereal- like a soul.

Purpose

“Every time you stay out late; every time you sleep in; every time you miss a workout; every time you don’t give 100%… you make it that much easier for me to beat you.”  -Unknown

So it's about 11:30 on a Monday and I'm sitting on my couch waiting for the public library to open, where instead of being productive I will sit in front of the computer until dinner. I decided to start this blog to give myself some motivation that I seriously need.

I am a recent college grad, who played Division I volleyball, and used to be in amazing shape.
