You're Gonna Hear Me Roar

Week 4 is about done.  Scale back down & girth #  down a tiny bit.  It's really nice to see the girth numbers drop & KNOW that I'm  taking up less space physically than I was 4 weeks ago.

Last workout of the week last week, I got my rear knee all the way down on split lunges.  I'm getting stronger.  My hip flexors are stronger.  And then intervals were awesome.

I put on Katy Perry's new song, "Roar" and ran my ass off.  Ran like there were zombies chasing me, panting & singing, "louder, louder than a lion 'cause I am a champion & you're gonna hear me roar."

I think it was my first realization that I CAN do this, that my body won't betray me.  That split second  of getting out of my head & celebrating my strength.

It was pretty awesome.

  1. WOOT! I'm telling you, food will always be my problem area -- now that I'm back to working out, I'm remembering how much I love feeling strong and in charge of my body!
