"Me First" week two!

Me First And That's OK!

It's week two of feeling the "Me First," vibe and I am still trying to find balance. I spent Labor Day Weekend fulfilling a promise that took me two years to make good on. I visited one of my band babies at her college. We had so much fun it makes me wonder why I didn't do that before now?

My "Me First," for today? Rather than get up and kick into gear with house cleaning and getting dinner figured out along with other things, I went to the gym. It was a slow start. I didn't make it much last week so I was feeling it today.

1/2 mile on treadmill and a solid lower body workout with weights. My current leg press is 180lbs. At the height of my personal trainer time last year I was consistently doing 245-270lbs  per workout. I need to get my weights built back up there.

My goal is to get some more walking in today with my favorite walk away the pounds DVD and I had an on point low carb breakfast with 2 eggs over medium, sliced avocado and some Hilltop Meats hand-smoked sausage, extra spicy.

I will update this post if I get the additional walking done. Any comments of encouragement are greatly appreciated as well as comments sharing what you're doing to get healthier!

Weigh day is Friday!
