Staying focused is something I have always seemed to have an issue with and as of the late that hasn't changed. I planned on beginning a work out regimen on Friday but because I was tired after a long week of work, and had my boyfriend round for the weekend, I sort of failed.
Needless to say when my boyfriend headed home this afternoon I decided it was time to take action, and actually work out. The 10 lbs I have managed to gain after my surgery will not melt away on their own so at last today (only just finished my workout about 10 minutes ago) I did the workout I had set up for myself on Friday. It only took me a total of 11 minutes to complete but I am still proud of myself for actually going through with it.
- Plank (I held it for a total of 1 minute, go me!)
- Downward Facing dog (Held for 30 seconds, I hate that yoga position it kills my calfs)
- Knee to Elbow Crunches, from the Downward Facing Dog position (15 reps per leg)
- Lunges (15 Reps per leg)
- 20 Squats
- 20 Toe Taps
- Kickbacks (10 Reps per leg)
- 30 Second Squat Hold
- Side Leg Lifts (15 Reps per side)
- Side Plank Lifts (15 Reps per side)
That concludes the workout I did today, now it is time for me to chug a nice bottle of water, and have a shower. I was planning on walking to Wal-Mart for some eggs and other tid-bits later but I think I shall skip that as I really don't need eggs that badly.
Hope you all had a lovely weekend!
Until next time, keep on smiling :)
Life is a very confusing journey at times, but I guess that's just the way it goes. Emotions and feelings aren't things we can just shrug off nor are they things we should let control everything we do though. That's something I need to keep on telling myself lately. It's ok for me to feel the way I do, because that's just the way I feel, and I can't change it, however I cannot let it control me.
Anyways, I think I am going to say goodbye to the youtube world, it is something I have put a lot of thought into and considering the last video I made on my own personal channel was I believe a good two years ago anyways, it didn't seem that big of a deal. I will however miss TwoPotterGirls, it was a way of me being able to connect with my friend Lucy between the distance, but I am sure our friendship can survive without youtube, and I truly hope that it does. I am not going to say that I am closing the door on youtube forever because I don't know that I am, but for now at least I think its safe to say goodbye.
Blogging is something I really want to start focusing on more. I have quite a bit going on this year, so it may actually be possible for me to successfully keep up blogging. That being said I have no idea how often I will actually be doing this, I do just know that I want to start doing more of it!
First things first is the upcoming Vegas trip in just 18 days, after which I plan on taking a first aid course, and finally getting my GED. I was going to take my GED Exam this month however with my funds even more pressed than usual because of the upcoming trip I have put it on hold until March or April. I will also be taking Drivers Ed this year and finally getting my license, I have my learners license already but its time I start driving. I am so fed up with public transportation.
I will hopefully pass my GED exam and get the certificate after which I plan on enrolling in an Administrative Assistant course come fall. Fingers crossed all goes to plan. It will keep me very busy this year but I'm pretty happy with this plan of action to get my life on track!
Until next time, keep on smiling! :)
