With all of the upcoming changes in my life (approaching 50), MIL moving in with us, another 17 year old in the house for the school year, and Casey back to school, it is time for me to start making some changes in my life. About 4 weeks ago I started doing Weight Watchers once again. With a new attitude I have lost 14 pounds already. It has been very helpful to have Casey doing this with me (although I have much much more to lose than her) and she has been very supportive.
We have been talking about some exercise program and Casey wanted to get back in great physical shape before going back into her regular routine of martial arts. She brought up doing Adventure Boot Camp and worked on talking me into it. It took some time, but I finally agreed to do this for 3 days a week (rather than 5). We started last week and have already completed 4 mornings of boot camp. We get up at 5 am and are ready to exercise at 5:30 am for an hour. It has been a great experience so far and I am already feeling stronger both physically and mentally. I am definitely pushing myself each day to complete the running, dragging a tire, lifting cinder blocks, and much more. I can't say that it has been FUN, but I can say that I am feeling such an exercise high from this that carries me through the day. Who knows where this will lead, but I do know that it is making me feel better about myself. More to come on this!
