I am super excited to share that I am down almost 10 pounds from when I started really trying to get back with it earlier this year. This is huge for me. I have somewhat been stuck on a plateau for quite some time now and am just thrilled to finally see things moving in the right direction. I really try not to get caught up in a certain weight or a number but it is definitely encouraging to have my pants fit a little looser and seeing some results.
I have really been sticking to my running plan for the most part and have also added in some weight training. A friend of mine introduced me to a really great circuit training class that our local rec center provides and I have attended it a few times now. It is a great full body workout and I could really use some help in improving my strength (considering I have like none). The class doesn't start until 8:45 at night which makes it a little late getting home but it works really well with my schedule since the girls are already asleep by then and I don't have to feel guilty for taking time away from them.
I am the world's worst critic with my body and I am really trying to improve on that. I am constantly having to remind myself that God created me and everything about me and who am I to criticize His wonderful work? I definitiely think it is important that we take care of the bodies He gave us and treat them with the utmost respect but that little reminder helps me to give myself a little more grace from time to time.
