Anyways...this coming week, from Tuesday to Sunday, I'm on my own. I won't be able to work out with Jessica at all during that time. I think I've mentioned before that my personal motivation is somewhat less than stellar. Well...now I've got a week of nothing but personal motivation to keep me going.
This should be interesting.
I mean, don't get me wrong, I love to work out. I love pushing my limits and proving people wrong, but therein lies my problem: I have to be competing. I can't "compete" against myself. Trust me, I've tried. It doesn't work. I need someone, just a few steps ahead of me, taunting me (not literally), egging me on, daring me to go faster to pass them. I (unfortunately) need some completely innocent bystander to be the target of my stubborn anger. I know this sounds overly dramatic, but it's true. I need to be able to convince myself that I have something to prove, and when I'm by myself, this is incredibly difficult.
Tomorrow is a double day, so I have to run and bike all on my own. Sigh...wish me luck.

I'm sure you'll do just fine. probably even GREAT! It's amazing the inner strength we have in ourselves that lets us accomplish things we don't think we can do. if that inner strength doesn't work you can always come to Las Vegas and train with me. I'm sure you can kick my butt and get me moving harder than ever.
Speaking of motivation. The reason why I hired Brad as my trainer is that he sure helps provide me the motivation and support I need to do what I do. I know that I wouldn't have lost all this weight, 110 pounds to date, without all that he does for me. he pushes me when I need it and sets me straight when I falter or have an attitude.
So be patient and know that you can do this.
Take it easy...
