Well, as my 40th birthday is around the corner and I leave for my surprise Key West birthday trip, I have to assess my progress in my M.O.M. (MILF on a mission).
It's fair to say I'm not at my weight goal, in fact 14 lbs away from my first goal (granted, it may have been slightly lofty). I do believe I'm more toned, so the small results I see make me happy my efforts are paying off. My endurance is most definitely increasing, and while I'm still not running as far or as long as I used to, I'm still trying, consistently, to get there. My commitment to such things has waxed and waned so much in the past, this is probably the biggest accomplishment I have in this goal.
True enough, I wanted to look "better" in my the pictures memorializing this stupid milestone birthday. I wanted the visual memories to match how happy I feel inside. I'm still upright, mobile, and all (most, HA!) of my faculties, and this wonderful ability to keep trying and being a positive, healthier role model for my daughter. So, I may not be able to "see" that in pictures, but I know it and that's actually enough. :)
...besides: I can still be in pictures in 6 more months and maybe my outside will match my inside more.
My journey to self discovery, spiritual growth, and everlasting quest for health, fitness...and guilt-free ways to eat my sweets
