And I’m faced with perplexity.
You see, I’m sick.
Achy body, sore throat, sneezing, stuffy head, fever, I was in bed asleep at 8 pm last night, sick.
I blame the kids.
{i usually do.}
You know, the ones who have been calling me “bobby” rather than “mommy” for the last two weeks because they themselves have been sick.
I did everything I could.
I took all my vitamins and supplements, got extra sleep and rest…
ate the way Adama & Eve must’ve eaten….
and yet, here I am.
On the last day, sick.
I found myself tortured at 4 am this morning trying to decide what I was going to do.
Finish the day?
Push myself to do a workout that my body is telling me isn’t in the works…just so I can say I did it?
Do I not finish the day, but say I did, so as not to let anyone down?
Or do I take all the lessons I’ve spent the last 30 days learning about myself and my body and apply them once and for all?
I started these 30 days to complete them.
Yes.
I started these 30 days for results.
Absolutely.
But in 30 days I have begun to understand my body in ways I never did before,
and today my body is telling me to rest.
And it’s just not in me to be anything but honest here,
because I’m NOT perfect,
{lest anyone thought i was, lol!}
and sometimes life throws a curve ball.
This is my real life.
And on the 30th day, real life happened.
Now, I’m the FURTHEST thing from God and all,
but even HE rested on the 7th day.
Today is my 7th day, and I am resting.
I will not sacrifice the results I’ve accomplished, both physically & mentally, just to say I completed 30 days.
THAT’S how much I’ve grown.
I tried EVERY SINGLE recipe, even if I thought I’d hate it.
{except for lamb…poor little lamb}
I took my supplements and vitamins EVERY SINGLE MORNING.
I worked out every single day,
and I did not eat ONE SINGLE THING that wasn’t on the approved 30 Day Method Menu.
I didn’t even take A SIP of soda, diet or otherwise….
and I even managed to blog about IT ALL.
{snap, snap, snap.}
because we are meant for support,
and if it weren’t for the support on my blog, along with my husband and best friends…
I would have totally been that girl with a pizza on her lap come Day 5.
{i’m 5’6, and no idea on weight since it’s been over 3 months since i’ve stepped on a scale!}
I tend to be the prayin’ kind, and I totally must give credit where credit is due…
and all the strength I have, completely came from Him.
30 days doesn’t end today.
Today, I’m resting, yes…
But I’ve learned a new way of health, and I’m excited to pick up and perfect all that I’ve been taught.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for taking this journey with me.
Your love, support, comments, and emails have brought me to tears, filling me with incredible determination and strength…
and love.
For a BUNCH of women I have yet, but hope to meet.
You have been Mah-jah.
And I mean that in a total Rachel Zoe kind of way.
Cheers, (with water cause I’m sick), to Tracy and to her AMAZEBALLS 30 Day Method!
