"Today is yesterday's tomorrow" [Nike]

.....Ain't that the truth.  And on the 8th I said, "Tomorrow" ..then again on the 9th... and again yesterday.  So, is today really my "tomorrow"? 

It is.

I just finished reading my Power90 challenge group's 60 day results.  Do I have results?  Results for what?  I haven't done anything.  I probably have gained an inch here or there.  I just got off the scale, and if I am remembering correctly, I have at least lost a pound or so.  However, that could be because I haven't been getting off my fat bum and building my muscles.

I also found this....


Sure, it is from 2007 and that was almost 5 years ago; but, look at that bod.  Look at that smile.  Look at how comfortable I am in my skin.  Not having to worry about who is judging me for being on the beach in a bathing suit.  Not worrying about sucking it in (although, I think I was trying to here. Nothing to suck in though..). Not worrying about turning my body in such a way to "trick" the camera from making me look like I should have an "Oversized Load" sign attached to my back and an escort truck with flashing yellow lights.  That picture is my goal.  Yes, it is a pre-child body and at this point probably just about impossible with my new curves.... it's not the body I'm after.  It's the feeling.  And in all honesty, it's the bikini.

We had our son's birthday party at a local state park that has a "beach."  My fiance's brother in law was the one who took my son swimming because I didn't bring my bathing suit.  Why would I?  Too many people.  I was just too big.  Not this year.  I'm having the party at the same park and swimming my heart out with my little guy!

For some extra accountability, I told my Wife that if she got up and ran in the morning, I would work out.  She ran this morning.  Instead of working out, I've been jerking around on Pinterest all morning.  Not to mention I have school work I should be doing.  (Darn you, Pinterest!!)  But, I gave the wife my word.  Working out is what I shall do!


Now, I'm going to do my 60 day measurements and post them to my challenge group either today or tomorrow.  I am tearing up just thinking about it.  I make no sense to myself.  If I KNOW that I will feel better about everything and  I will be just all around happier and have more energy, why don't I just do it?! LAZY.

No more "tomorrow." It's TODAY.

TODAY IS THE DAY.
