I let myself get frustrated again. I took a month off the scale, got back on and nothing had changed.
I got the bright idea to try a cleanse. I didn't want to spend money, and I wanted it to be natural. I picked the Dr. Oz three-day cleanse. PROS: Lost seven pounds in three days. Also learned to appreciate food without seasoning or preservatives. CONS: It took my body a week to recover. I also gained all the weight back.
Finally, spring had sprung. It was nice enough to take my exercises outside. I also came to the harsh realization that the Warrior Dash was only three months away. Holy crap!
I downloaded the app RunKeeper some time ago. I loaded it up and set up a 5K run training schedule. And I went.
And I loved it!
As soon as I finish a walk/run, I want to go back out again. Every time I go out I see progress. I no longer dread hills or stairs. And it isn't hard. And by hard mean I don't get my mental ass kicked. My mind is clear, and my new mantra is clear as well:
Just go.
Getting healthy is as simple as that. Protein shakes, gluten free, cross training, scales... All of it is a bunch of yapping, buzzing. Just go. Don't think, don't show off, don't keep talking about it.
Just. Go.
