Genesis Challenge Day 2, Week 3

Food and Exercise Diary HERE - Not very happy with myself today, but tomorrow is a new day and I will try harder to get the calorie intake up there again!  Grrr, this time its MK's turn to give me the lecture!  Yes, Yes I will practise what I preach :oP.

"Every day may not be good, but
there's something good in every day"

You know how sometimes you just wake up flat? Well, today was my flat moment, I just couldn't be bothered getting out of bed.  But I did and I still went about my usual routine including going to Gym.

So today I discovered first hand that it really is true what they say about the mind being the make or break when it comes to exercise.  As I was waiting for the Boxing class to start this morning I was already convinced that I wasn't going to be able to keep up with everyone, and then ofcourse we started and I struggled with the first lots of sprints.  It wasn't until about half way through that I changed my mindset and took control enough to focus and give it everything I had and by the end of the class I was the one leading the sprints.  At the end of the class the Instructor 'Michael' praised and high fived me and I have to say that it gave me a real sense of pride which saw me walking out of the Gym with my head held high and a pep in my step. =)

Unfortunately by the afternoon I was back to feeling flat again and now as I write this I am totally exhausted and still feeling flat but it's nothing that some sweet slumber won't fix (and probably a higher calorie intake too).

Anyway so not to end on a negative note even though it hasn't been the best of days, there are still moments that have made me smile and I am still thankful that I got to wake up and experience it and so for me that's good enough.

if you can't change it,
change the way you look at it".
