Dirty Thirty

Hey friends! It's been a long time! Honestly, I haven't been very motivated with dieting, or at least not very committed.  Plus, at the beginning of the year I started to get this nasty pain in my side that made it difficult to work out. Then when I went to the doctor, despite having totally clear tests, she was convinced that I had lung cancer, or heart problems or who knows what else. So I coudn't really work out until all that was cleared up. I'm fine, by the way. And I switched doctors since that one was apparently crazy!

But I digress. I'll just say that I'm tired of being overweight, and I'm tired of feeling blah! Not to mention, JR and I would like to have another baby someday, and since the last one almost killed me I would like to go into the next pregnancy as healthy as possible.

So here comes the Dirty Thirty.  As most of you know, I have a small obsession with Cardio Barre and today marks the start of Cardio Barre's 30 in 30 challenge. I am doing it! That means I get to take 30 barre classes in 30 days...yikes! There is no specific method, I can take one class each day or double or triple (eek!) them up, just so long as I get 30 in 30. I'm excited and nervous! Already I know some days I'm going to miss this month, which means I'm going to have to double up soon.  I know it will be good and my body will thank me for it in the end...but wowza it's gonna hurt!

This is where I need your help. Motivation! Help keep me accountable. Get my butt to barre! Already I have had a small moment of suckiness. Today is the first day, the FIRST DAY, and already I skipped my morning class to stay in bed. I made it to the evening class so I'm not technically behind yet. It's crazy though, I have been so excited to start this challenge and yet today it was hard to muster up any enthusiasm. On my way to class I was like I so don't feel like this tonight, and during class I was like is this over yet? Which is so unlike me.  I LOVE barre. I don't know if I'm just letting  my doubts and fears defeat me or what...but I'm going to need to pep myself up if I'm going to make it all 30 days.

So wish me luck in my challenge, I'm going to need it. Plus, anyone who wants to join me at barre is always welcome!
