So I've been nothing but a total loser for the last few weeks. Per my usual self destructive self, I got into the Doctorate of Education program, which proves I'm smart, so I immediate went into a self-loathing of my body spiral. Why not? Surely the only I have is a brain so my body must suck.
I'm finding my way back. After a few pity posts and a couple of weeks of hiding from the track, my grand plan is to get off my ass. I know the running and working out makes me feel good about me. I feel strong and powerful. I feel like a sexy woman. I need to feel like a sexy woman. I am a sexy woman? Anyways, not quite out of the body-loathing yet but I'm better today than last week.
I don't think I am going to meet my half-mary by my birthday goal but I know that with a little work, I can run a half-mary this year. So I'm going for it. I might never get rid of this spare-tire around my waist but I know that I am working towards health. So I'm getting back to running. God-willing I'll have miles to report for next week.
Miles run this week: 0 :(

ReplyDeleteHey stop being a HATER you know what you need to do and you will do it. Love yourself enough to not say negative things about yourself . :)
ReplyDeleteYou have a plan and now that you've posted it you can be more accountable for it... You got this babe.... :)
ReplyDeleteBest of luck on getting back on track. I used the half marathon training plan on Fitness Cheerleaders site. You can do it!!!
ReplyDeleteWe all have bad weeks and make poor choices. Learn to accept yourself with grace and love. That will be your first step toward health.
ReplyDeleteBe patient with yourself and get back on track with what you need to do to make a 1/2 happen this year. You are worthy.
ReplyDeleteI've been there. It is easy to let yourself go, it is harder to keep yourself in check. But you CAN do this. I have many times resigned myself to having a "mom body" b/c I have 5 kids. Why? Why can't we as women be smart, funny AND Sexy? Why must we choose? You will get your half-mary, all things take time, just keep moving forward. Big HUGS!
ReplyDeleteDeep breath girl-you got this. Hang in there and get back on track. All us Mammas are right behind you cheering
