Frustration

Okay, part of this journey is about learning the frustrations that go along with making new habits. Today, I am frustrated. But I have two choices... #1 throw in the towel, or #2 refocus, look at what I can improve on and work harder. I am choosing #2. I know how much work I have to do. I really thought it would be easier. I am working out hard, I mean really hard. I think I am looking tighter and more defined, but my body fat results today didn't show what I want. Well, this is a wake up call for me. I have gotten away from writing down every calorie as I was going on how I felt and estimates. Well, if I am going to compete in the big leagues, then I better learn to be more self-disciplined like them. This is so much harder than I imagined. But I know that is how my clients feel. I am sure you have felt it would be easier, only to realize it takes a lot more than you thought. The eating and the workouts have to match. That is why Target Metabolism is so wonderful. It shows me the truth and now we have to play with numbers to figure out where I need to be. No more guessing games! I am going back in 1 week. So, I am re-motivated after sulking for a minute, and it is on! I am in competition with myself! I have to be better to reach my goals. I really want this. That is something you have to ask yourself, when the road gets bumpy or you reach a road block, will you pick #1 or #2! But let me just say, if you pick #1, you'll never know if next week would have put you on the fast track! And I have to know. How bad do you want it????
