Destination Postcard

Wow, has it seriously been since March, since I touched base... I am a bad little blogger...
it doesn't matter to anyone but me... but honestly, I love looking back at where my head space has been. Very interesting that I have been 'spinning' my wheels (so to speak) for the past 4 years, since I started this blog. Not exactly though, I am happier than I have ever been, so that is something that is pretty awesome to experience :) (and medication free!) I keep saying I don't want to be stuck in the same place (weight wise) this time next year... and low and behold next year rolls around and I am in the same place... well, almost.
My 42nd Birthday is fast approaching, in less than 1 month, and I am in the same place, well... not really, I have made a big commitment and started "Precision Nutrition's LE coaching program".
I started on Monday July 21st and already feel motivated and different than I have in the past.
I am very excited, because I think THIS IS IT. This is the program that will teach me how to ACT how to go after my goals and achieve them!!! if nothing else, this is new and fresh and fun ... which is always a plus for me.

When it comes to change:
=> ACTION is more important than information
=> DOING is more important than knowing

This is what I need to MOVE FORWARD toward my goals. I believe PN coaching will give me this daily push to ACT and DO and be successful.

I am going to try and use this blog to keep track of my headspace assignments.
Each day (or a couple of times a week?) Im not sure of the frequency... the coach (Veronica) gives us an assignment to dig deep into our Why or other psyche type things.
I have done a hell of a lot of work on this over the past few days, luckily I had done most of this work prior to this week (over the last 5 years), figuring out my WHY and my motivation.

I believe I am truly ready to DO THIS!!! SUCCESS

perhaps this will be my new Mantra - SUCCESS

Today's assignment is called "Destination Postcard", I have to figure out where I could be a year from now... what will July 25, 2015 look like?
pretty fun right!!! they also recommend making a vision board, writing myself a letter or putting a pinterest board together etc... I might do one of these.

But first, I want to write it down here.

A year from now, July 25th 2015,
I want to be:
- lighter
- 145lbs
- free from heartburn
- wearing a size 8-10 pant
- blood pressure in the normal range (120/80)
- wearing my wedding bands
- physically in shape - muscle definition and not 'winded walking up 3 flights of stairs)
- living my best life
- a good role model for healthy living to my daughter
- regularly intimate with my husband
- DOING IT - acting instead of wishing and planning/preparing- SUCCESSFUL

I want to do:
- 10x burpees 'easily'

- 1x unassisted pull up
- bend easily
- Adventure race 2015 (?)
- CN Tower stair climb 2015 (?)
- wear a 2x piece swim suit with confidence

I want to feel:
- SUCCESSFUL - at accomplishing my goals by reaching 145 lbs
after which, I will figure out a new goal... e.g. maintain that weight (within 5lbs) for 1 year... repeat...

- Overall, I want to 'Feel' in better health than I am right now - stronger, better stamina

Go and DO IT
