New Year, New Resolution (AGAIN)

Since I'm currently exhausted and it is already January 5th I wanted to take a quick moment to update you on the year ahead. I will likely update this post later...when the kids are asleep and I'm not fighting it myself.

I have an extensive list of resolutions, with the top one regarding fitness. Here's the list (for now):

~Performing some type of physical exercise no less than 3 days a week, hopefully more like 5 or 6, but never less than 3

~Eating a diet of cleaner, healthier food (me and the fam)

~Being a more patient mom

~Being a better, more attentive wife

~Running a full marathon (26 miles!)

~Learning more about my religion, understanding it more, and living by it daily

~Starting a business that could eventually lead to working from home

and the list goes on...

My overall focus is on being the best person I can be, whether it be fitness, mothering, loving my husband, or helping others. This is what I strive for. As anyone knows, it is much easier to want to do all of this than it is to actually live a life of it. I easily get caught up in hectic schedules, messy meal times, and cranky moods.

My fitness resolution began on Monday. I've restarted P90X from day 1. Day 1 consisted of Chest & Back and Ab Ripper X. It worked and I'm sore. Day 2 was Plyometrics. Man o man do I hate Ploymetrics. I can't jump high and I can't land light. It is amazing, really. I am able to sound like an elephant doing jumping jacks while I only make it a couple of inches off the ground. Today was Day 3 and I've saved it for tomorrow. I had a doctor's appointment today that could have possibly ended with an "annual" exam...no lady wants to go in for an "annual" after having worked all day and exercising. Nevertheless, I could have gone ahead and worked out as no "annual" was perfomed. Oh well, a much needed day off as I am extremely sore. Yea for muscle soreness...its what reminds you that you're doing good, hard work.
