SORRY!

I am really sorry for the hiatus! :O I really didn't plan it, it just happened. I have been a little off track. And I felt like junk when I realized I wasn't doing anything to get to my goals. My goal of a fit and happy life... yeah I was, if anything, sabotaging myself. I was making safe to eat cookie dough everyday for like a week. And I wasn't working out. It was a dark time. So, I am getting back on track. I have a plan to workout for a least 30 min at least 6 times a week until farther notice. Whether it is walking, running, punching the punching bag, JUSTDANCE2014, or who knows what! My mom agreed to pay me $1 for every time I do that. That isn't so much for motivation, as it is so that I can get something nice. I want to get some nice workout clothes, sign up for mud runs galore, and I need new running shoes. (the soles are tearing.)

I am going camping in Brown County in June, which I am so psyched about! One of my current goals is to get light enough to ride the horses. They have about a 250 weight limit, I am 20 lbs away. Once I get to that weight I also get to take archery lessons! It's an old deal I am so excited about!

I also want to go Zip-lining while there, so I need to be fit enough for that.

My plan (I am counting on you to keep me accountable):

1. Run/walk outside every opportunity.
2. Hit the Gym everyday.
3. Count calories.
4. If I can't get to the gym, and the weather is bad, do JUSTDANCE.
5. Eat breakfast/drink protein shake.

It's been too long!

Dear guys and gals,

I am struggling. I have been sick the entire month of February and so far all of March. I am trying to stay positive, but alas, it is harder than it sounds. I haven't made it to the gym. I have made terrible food choices. I just feel awful. I am reinstating my goals, but I have to modify them. I have to get there some how so I need to figure out how.

I am starting with portion control and food choices. And I want to workout again, but my mom says to take it one step at a time. I am not sure I agree. I think of it as, when I eat better... I want to workout. When I workout, I want to eat better! So they should go together. I have been in a major slump, and it's time I get out of it!

I want to get back to fitness to inspire!

I want to get back so this will happen! ^^

 

 

 

 

 

 

I may be overweight, unfit, and unhappy right now. But, with hard work, I know I can change it!

Athlete.... I like the ring of that.

So I have this dream of being an Athlete. But I have a problem with food. I love it. I am in the process of learning food is for fuel not for indulgence. I love that foods that are healthy for you are also really good. But I am here to talk about how I want to be an athlete.

My dream of being an athlete has never been stronger, I just have to push myself to get there. What to I mean by athlete? Well, I mean I want to be someone with is fit and competitive, someone who participates in sports, also someone who is healthy.

I made a list of what "Athlete Valerie" will be able to conquer.

Here is the list:

1. Can run a half marathon nonstop
2. Eats right, focus on fruit, veggies, and lean meats.
3. Can climb a rock wall.
4. Is able to run a Tough Mudder
5. Runs Daily
6. Finds workouts
7. Makes time to workout
8. Works out on race weekends.
9. Invents ways to be active.
10. Avoids/Doesn't eat fried or gas station foods.

It is my life's goal to complete #1.

Here is a list of what I will be in the health aspect.

1. Has a healthy weight.
2. Maintains a healthy Blood Pressure.
3. Doesn't have belly fat
4. Has a healthy/close to healthy BMI.
5. Has a low body fat percentage.

Those are my goals as an athlete. To get there is going to be a challenge. But Challenge Accepted.

A sort of mission change!

So, my goal was to lose weight and get fit. And ultimately that is still my goal, however, I have this thing wrong with me. I don't know what. I dry heave randomly, and get really bad headaches.... So as of right now the mission of this blog is to follow my progress with this thing I call Illness X. I want to show that I can still be a fighter, I can still get to my ultimate goal. Right now though, I just have to focus on what I can. 

Illness X interferes with workouts, though I still try to go to the gym. But! I CAN eat better. I CAN count calories. I CAN possibly start at home yoga/other workouts. I CAN stay strong and be an Overcomer! I CAN look to the Almighty God to help me through this! I CAN do I a lot. I WON'T let this stop me. I'll just have to go a little slower than I planned. 

My mom is calling the doctor again tomorrow, hopefully we will get some answers soon. Not knowing... That's the hardest. 

 So, at least for a bit I'll be focusing on getting through this. 

Song of the post! Overcomer by Mandisa. Check it out. 

Later!

So, I've been thinking..........

Like the title says, I've been thinking. About a lot of stuff. I recently started my new school, it a virtual public school and I love it! That does mean, though, that I am home a lot more. So, food. I have put in my house more fruits and veggies that I love. I had some pomegranate seeds this morning... but I spilt them. So I made some fattening stuff.. I feel bad now. I have decided I am going to attempt Paleo. I am not sure. I really like cheese and bread, but I know that they don't like me... So for now, I am just going to focus on clean eating!

I have been sick for the last week or so, but I continued to do Just Dance 2014, almost everyday! It was good. It helped me feel better. Tonight I am hoping to go to the gym to walk for a few hours, maybe run a little. (Yes, I said a few hours.) My dreams are to run the runDisney marathon, and a girl has go to start somewhere! I have to increase endurance first and foremost! That will be the tough part.

As a last thing to say, I know a lot of people who come up with excuses, silly ones. And I am sorta tired of it! If you want to do something but you are worried about what people will think, ask yourself "Why Not?" "Why can't I do this?" If it isn't illegal, immoral, or lethal, "Why Not?" That's my little rant for today.

Why Not?

Goals Baby

This picture is a virtual representation of my goal self. 

It has my current body looks and what I would look like at my goal weight. I won't be dissapointed if this isn't the result, or I don't get to my goal weight, but it's important to have goals. Other goals of mine are to be able to run a mini marathon by next year. And I want to complete the Warrior Dash. What are your goals?
