Weigh-In Update

Just felt compelled to include a little humor with this week's weigh-in update. As I've mentioned before, this whole becoming healthier journey can be very emotional, and this week has been one emotional roller coaster! And I'm not here to only talk about only the positive things that happen, but when things aren't going quite right as well.

So, this week I was up 1.8 pounds, and yes it REALLY bothered me! But, as usual, Michael keeps me from getting too far off track by his encouraging and motivating talks. We discussed moving forward and I'm taking his suggestions. The thing is, I think I'm having the opposite problem of some people, my eating is very clean but I'm struggling in other areas. And like Michael said, not to use it as an excuse, but I am working through an injury and didn't get my cardio in like I normally do. Plus, I've had a lot of other stuff going on that has my mind racing 100 mph and not sleeping well some nights. He didn't modify much on my meals since what I'm eating is clean, but making a minor change as far as the time I eat breakfast. The other suggestions involved me getting more sleep and trying to eliminate any unnecessary stress. First rule is I can't wake up before 4:00 am and he suggested I also keep a daily journal for just myself.

So, I'll take all his suggestions and "Trust The Process" as he always reminds me I need to do, and we'll see what happens next week. Hopefully will be back on track, because if I don't start making progress he might be tempted to call Keith Jacobs in who gives no mercy (but in a good way)! :)

And speaking of Michael Watkins and Keith Jacobs being some awesome trainers....these two were on air with KRMG's "Man Show" this morning and had some great advice for people wanting to get healthier!

You Must Be Willing To Change!

So I was inspired to write this post after standing in line behind a couple ladies at the grocery store. I couldn't help but overhear their conversation because they were really frustrated. By the conversation I could tell both ladies were very unhappy about their weight, health, and how they looked. They both complained of the weight they have gained over the past several years, and one even mentioned about all the meds they were having to take. They discussed the various "diets" and diet pills they have tried. As they continued their discussion, they started to put their groceries up on the counter, I couldn't help but notice what they were purchasing. For starters they didn't have any type of fruits or vegetables. They had cookies, pop, several bags of chips like Doritos, various processed lunch meats, frozen pizzas, and a lot of other items that are not healthy options. And in all this discussion these ladies had, I never once heard any mention of exercising.

So, as I'm listening to this discussion and seeing everything they are buying for their meals, I couldn't help but think of how many times I've heard conversations like this before from other people I actually know. The thing is, I've been there! I used to be this person who continued with the same habits, yet expected different results. But thankfully I realized how crazy that sounds and did something about it by taking responsibility for my own health. Are you tired of not getting the results you want? My personal advice is figure out what you need to make those changes and then just do it, because you won't get different results if you continue your same unhealthy habits!

If you're here locally in Tulsa area, I encourage you to contact Michael Watkins - owner or Keith Jacobs - manager at Fitness Together Downtown Tulsa or Fitness Together Jenks/Riverside and tell them you heard about them from me, Sherrie Bullock. If you're outside the Tulsa area I encourage you to contact a local Fitness Together to get the same motivation, encouragement, and tools as I do to be successful with your own personal health and fitness goals.
