This week has been a bit rough. I didn’t gain or lose anything, thankfully. I didn’t follow the meal plan very well. I could give a list of excuses but in the end I just messed up and I’ll just take responsibility for that right now!

It’s almost summer time, and that means taking out my summer clothes and updating my summer wardrobe! The first thing I always do is go through my old clothes and make sure I will actually wear all of them. If I can’t see myself wearing it within the next month then I donate them!

As I continue to do my Revolt workouts, running regularly, and tae kwon do classes I get inspired when I notice the little things.

• I can do 50 pushups at a time… There was a time I couldn’t even do a regular pushup, I had to go on my knees and even then I struggled to complete 10.
• I can do crunches, and lots of ‘em. I don’t mind crunches at all! I am so excited to see my abs strengthen!
• Squats are no problem! But booty is benefiting and I’m loving it! I use to do 10 squats and my legs would burn, now 30+ is no problem!
• I can do a 1minute plank easy, I can’t wait to work up to TWO minutes!

They may seem like small feats, but it’s a lot more encouraging then the big picture, which is running a full 5k and losing 25 pounds!! What’s your victory for today?

There are plenty of good reasons to want to live a healthy lifestyle. Some people want to keep up with their kids, some want to get in shape for a special date, some people want to be in shape before they have a baby, some want to feel better about themselves, some people compete, run races, etc. There are lots of reasons.

But what inspires you?

For me, I get inspired when I look at fit people, and no, I don’t mean super skinny super models or whatever, I mean fit. People who are able to run in marathons, or can bench press their own weight. I want to do that! I want to be able to run 5k and not feel like I’m going to die and I know I can, with a little work

If you are a fan of any of the big youtubers, you might know Shaycarl. He lost a TON of weight while vlogging every day about it. He lost 100+ pounds by making smarter choices and exercising.

Most of us have seen this amazing photo of Josh Sundquist, an amputee who bulked way up, with only one leg! How’s that for inspiring?

 Or something even simpler – leave notes around the house for yourself, or pictures. Right now I have the ‘plank challenge’ set as my desktop background. I want to get to the 2minute plank point and the background inspires and reminds me!
