Looking Back & Moving Forward

Wow, it feels like this year is going by way too fast, doesn't it?  I can't believe we're a week into March already!  Today I was thinking back on the year and I felt really good about what I've done so far this year. I'd say my biggest accomplishment since January is completing two more rounds of 21 Day Fix.  My third overall round ended almost a week ago, so last week I was in an in-between stage.  

I knew I needed a break from 21 Day Fix, but also wanted to keep up the momentum I had built the week before by doing two workouts a day.  So last week I did a mixture of different workouts and also tried to take an evening walk most nights to watch the sunset.  Overall I was able to get in 250 active minutes from Monday until Friday, which I thought was really good!

For this week I was planning on starting another round of 21 Day Fix, but I decided that I was ready for some variety and for something even more challenging.  So I decided to order the Master's Hammer & Chisel program.  It's been out for a couple of months but I've been too scared to order it.  I knew that it would be a challenging program and for some reason I convinced myself that I wouldn't be able to do it.  But I think the double workouts for the last two weeks really boosted my confidence, because this morning I ordered it and now I'm really excited to get started!

I think another big confidence boost was that last week I hit the milestone of having lost 20 pounds so far!  I had been close for a while, but I had no idea how good it would feel until it actually happened.  I am so proud of myself for making such a huge change in my life and in my health.  I have a doctor appointment next week, so I'm excited for my doctor to see how much has changed since I saw him last October.  It will be great to see how my overall health has changed now that there's less strain on my body from all that extra weight.  

I still have a long ways to go until I hit my goal weight, but I am confident that I can keep up the good work and see more and more milestones completed as I get closer to my goal weight.  

So that's a quick overview of where I've been and where I'm going.  Next Monday I'll have my initial impressions of Hammer & Chisel that I will share with you.  Until then I hope to keep writing some other posts.  If you have any requests, feel free to share in the comments below.

And as always, if you like this post please share it with anyone who might also enjoy it. Also, if you'd like to see more of my life you can follow me on Instagram @besidebeth
