Rising up

Three days in a row I have worked out and eaten well enough. I have lost 2 pounds. I've lost around 6 pounds in the last 2.5 weeks. So, I'm really geared up to drop the weight needed to do better on my next triathlon.

There's a saying that I'm sure everyone knows, and will some day become (if not soon) a cliche. But, I think it's apropos for the human situation. "It doesn't matter how many times you fall, but rather, how many times you get back up." And that is the case here with me and any and everyone else like me.

I have to say that my blog will be an up and down thing, because I like to joke around. But until I reach my goals, there will be set backs. So, I make light of them. Despite that, I do take them seriously.

The new year is tomorrow and my goals have not changed. I might like to add to them, but I believe in the domino affect--achieve one, and many more will follow because of it. So, my goal to prepare physically for my next tri will lead to my goals of better disciplined eating and more productivity. So, I'm still hear, I'm still focused, and I am looking forward to success this year.

I'm surprised you've lost weight in this last few weeks. I'm sure I've gained because I've eaten horribly! I'm ready to make a fresh start today!
