Loser turning into a Winner!

I know I have slacked off in writing this blog everyday, but it kinda stressed me out. When I get stressed out my world seems to go into hiatus mode! I eat badly and I tend to forget to exercise. Terrible excuse, I know, but I am back on track making my loser status transform into a winner's status. I was fortunate this summer to take a 2 week vacation visiting my family and friends. With much fun came a disruption in my schedule. Now that I am back home and getting ready for the 2009-2010 school year to begin I have more motivation to get back on a schedule. I decided that I needed a new workout plan. So I am waking up every morning and doing 30 minutes on my eliptical, doing 200 hundred sit-ups and 70 push-ups (both on the body ball) and then doing various toning exercises to complete my workout. I feel so fabulous after each morning that I know that my day was started right. I will continue this during the school year. Each week I plan to add 10 more minutes to my eliptical workout (until I hit an hour), 20 more sit-ups and 10 more push-ups. My nutrition is getting better, but I needed some how to track it. I am a huge fan of Jillian Michaels (Biggest Loser Trainer with no time for excuses), so I signed up with her online program. It was just what I was looking for. She gives me everything that I need. Now I just need to find the time to visit it every day. Here's to the new school year and hopefully a new me! The Quest to become physically fit is still in motion! Monica
