I'm now 40..........
sorry I had to wipe some tears there for a minute.
I'm back to working out after taking a break while dealing with a family tragedy. I find though that my mind and body craves the time not to think about problems. I enjoy the time I take to workout and feel the "high" after a great workout. I think it helps me handle my daily things much better.
I have lost 17 pounds to date. As I said in a reply in an email I feel I'm in the midst of taking back my life, body and mind. I have a huge craving to redefine myself and get back to the way I used to be. I want to be focused and energetic again. I know I haven't been consistent but I'm ready to write a whole new chapter.
It feels like dawn and I'm watching the sun rise. Turning 40 is truely the start of a new era for me. I'm creating and challenging myself to take care of me like never before. Life is so precious. Each day should end with having learned something new, thinking a new thought and being the best you could be.
I'm so excited and hope the same for each person here trying to accomplish goals. Just the experience has enriched me and I'm making new friends everyday. Where else can you do that with people searching/yearning for a better existance? Let's take these steps together!!
