40 days to FIT!! Day 22~ Ready “To Monday”!
Posted by buffmother in Goal Setting (POA), mental on August 10th, 2009
Is it just me or are Mondays a bit intimidating to you too? BUT today I am ready “To Monday”!! 
To Monday means so many things:
- time to get a vision for the week ahead and build up excitement for what I can accomplish on the week ahead!!
- feeling a little twinge of fear/intimidation about all the “work’ I hope to accomplish in the day ahead
- time to a my clean up my diet and get in a killer first workout of the week
- time to interact with clients, friends and business partners online, on the phone and in person
- PEACE an quiet around the house…the kids are in school~ YAY!
- time to “clean up”; make lists, organize and prioritize
- time TO ATTACK IT!
My Monday is off to a great start~ I woke up on time despite an “alarm malfunction”; got the kids off to school; remembered to get the lunchroom a check for “lunch money”; I’ve taken my morning supplements (allergy pill + NOEXPLODE+ Garlic), and currently am eating breakfast (protein shake and banana +coffee); doing some laundry; and I’ve even already checked my e-mail…. a GREAT START!! and I expect that trend to continue! I am so ready “TO MONDAY” today!!
What about you are you ready “TO Monday”?

40 Days to Fit! ~ Day 2
Posted by buffmother in Intervals, Running, contests on July 21st, 2009
Hey ALL!!
Well, I’ve made it through the first two days of the 40 absolutely on FIRE!! All the excitement generated by your comments; You have TOTALLY inspried me!!! I LOVE IT~ thanks!!!
That said…I’ve already had to make adjustments to my own workout POA…we decided to go to Branson next week and I’ve been really busy working the past 2 days~ so my workout have had to SHIFT a bit. I often take Mondays as my “day off” of workouts because Mondays are such crazy busy days! I need to remember to stick to that and workout on Sunday instead.
My workout yesterday ended up being a short run of about 15 mins or so…and then 10 mins of intervals on the upright bike.
Today’s workout has been about the same~ a run of about 25 mins…and then 10 mins of intervals on the bike.
FYI~ here are a few songs that inspired me during my workout today:
Britt Nicole | Set the World on Fire
Nelly Furtado -Say It Right Music Video
Colbie Caillat – Bubbly
Britney Spears – Do Something
I will do some perfect push ups here in a bit while cooking some supper for the family- I’m going to scramble up some eggs and make toast too.
Which makes me think of my mini-goal for this week~ I am striving to eat more protein!!
Since my photoshoot I’ve been slacking on getting in my protein and I keep saying I’ll start eating more- BUT that’s kinda hard when I don’t have any! I ran out of my current favorite protein powder, my favorite protein bars and I don’t have any meat in my frig! I’ve gotta go to the store tomorrow first thing!
HOPE you are as fired up as me!!! Let’s keep rocking these 40 days!!!
Set your goals!!
xoxoxo~
