Yep, you read right.. My once small shirts are no longer fitting (in the arms) and I'm HAPPY!! How many times have you heard that from a woman? hahaha Not too many, I'm sure. I've taken on yet another activity. Or should I say I've increased the activities I'm already doing. I've picked up more karate, more boxing, HEAVIER weights and this Sunday my training for the San Antonio, Tx Rock N Roll marathon (Nov 11, 2012) starts.. I couldn't imagine my life any other way-BUSY.
I love the way my body is changing and improving. So it's a welcome change to what my body was even months ago. I also have noticed that with lifting heavier weights that my abs have REALLY started "popping" through.
I have been asked when will I be "happy" with my body.. I smile and say, "I'm happy now. But that doesn't mean I should stop taking care of myself. Plus, I LOVE (almost LIVE for) a challenge:". Once you stop trying to improve yourself is when you start to become "comfortable" with things and settle into a life of being stagnant. Which in my opinion is NEVER good. I don't want to be that old person who sit on the sidelines watching my grandkids. Which raises the question, "why is it ok to live that kind of life"?? I see so many elderly people who just "stop" being apart of life.. It's NEVER a good thing.. So why do so many people look the other way when we see our parents and grandparents "living" this way? I don't know about you, but I want to be the HOT-ASS grandma that people notice in a good way.. Haha
So, never stop moving, never stop improving or growing.
