Who Run the World?

Ok, ok, so I stole that from Beyonce's song, but that song REALLY pumps me up!

I've been a slug for the past two days, so I knew that today I needed to really hit it.  I jogged for almost all of my 30 minute 1.3 mile trip on the elliptical.  I know it might not seem like much for some, but for me, it's a huge step.  I just kept pushing and pushing.  If I want results, I've got to push myself.  My friend Misty has told me "If it doesn't challenge you it won't change you" and it's so true!  I find myself getting a bit lost during my time on the elliptical so I just stare straight ahead at the wall with such intensity.  I just picture all of the people (mostly in high school) who made jokes or comments about my size.  I think about the "friends" who posted a sign on the door (of Mrs. P's class) about clifford the big red dog the day I wore a really pretty red sweater.  I also think about all of the goals I want to accomplish and that really motivates me.

I am so in love with avocados!  I was all over Pinterest looking at the different ways to eat them.  To be honest, I'm perfectly happy eating them with some hot sauce right out of the shell!  I'd really like to find a whole grain bread that I like.  Nick isn't much of a "non-white bread" person so I have to keep that in the house lol!  I also need to get more grains in the diet.  Guess I'll have to check out Pinterest for that, too :-)
