This morning I woke up and completed my usual routine. I went to the kitchen, set my *Keurig coffeemaker, brushed my teeth and took a shower. When I finished I picked up my wonderfully, rejuvenating cup of French Vanilla coffee and sat down at my kitchen table to relax before the morning rush. As I savored my cup of coffee, it hit me! In about two months, I would be heading out to Atlanta, Georgia for Blogalicious 2009!
I hadn’t exactly forgotten about the event, but in the back of my mind, it seemed so much farther away. As a speaker, I was excited. Yet as a woman, I was anxious because I hadn’t kept up with my physical routine and I would be speaking in front of everyone! In fact, instead of losing weight, I had actually put on 5 more pounds. Definitely not a good thing for my health or my wardrobe!
I decided today that I would start my exercise routine again. I pledge to work out at least 4 days a week for thirty minutes each day. I also pledge to eat healthier, which means no more fast food or bagels with butter and jelly in the mornings (Ayeeeee I will miss you bagel!). I will also kidnap one of my co-workers (K?) and walk for at least half of my lunch hour.
My weight loss goal is twenty pounds; however, I’ll be happy if I lose ten by October. Like I posted before (click HERE to see my previous post), I need to do it for myself, not only because it will help me fit in my skinny clothes but also because it will give me more energy.
Now ask yourself … are YOU ready?! Cause I am! I’m ready for a healthier me AND for Blogalicious 2009!
*In a few short weeks, shoffee.com will be sponsoring a Keurig coffeemaker giveaway on Latina On a Mission. Its the perfect College Dorm accessory, small enough to fit in a dorm room and big enough to let you savor the flavor! Keep your eyes peeled. You won’t want to miss it!
