Last week, I lost a dear friend to cancer. The disease runs in his family, so you could say he was genetically prone to it. However, knowing that - he ate super healthy, worked out everyday, and always had a smile on his face. You never know when it's your time to go, so make the most of what you have.
When something like this happens, in the background, you can always hear those who say that if their life is up then why not totally indulge? Forget the gym, forget the healthy food choices and forget the positive outlook I say . . . because if you eat crap, you're going to feel like crap. Why would someone do that to themselves and their family? You never know if or when you will be fighting for your life - whether it's from a horrible disease or a significant surgery or injury. Why not face it with the healthiest body you can and give yourself a head start on your recovery? And if you're facing death, as with my friend, fighting back with a healthy and fit body may give you extra time with family.
If you have been blowing off the gym and telling yourself you will start back in January - DON'T!!! Get yourself going in the right direction now. If you already have 5, 10, 15 pounds to lose, get SERIOUS NOW and don't wait until your weight loss goal doubles - as it easily can if you just 'let go' over the holidays. YOU are the only reason you need to take care of yourself and get in the best shape - you never know what kind of fight your body & MIND will face tomorrow. A fit and healthy body fuels a fit and healthy MIND - emotional distress can exhaust you the same way a physical fight will.
Take some time today and think about the ones you love, remember to tell them and show them how much you care. Then, get to the gym and get your body moving in a positive direction. The healthier you are, the more endurance you will have to fight hard and increase your chance of survival. If you are looking for help to jump start your fitness plan or ways to get maximum nutrients in your body, email me. This is my passion . . . I want you to be as healthy as you possibly can.
A side note: Kickboxing gloves are in I will be passing them out this week.
Have a great week, I'm grateful each of you are in my life...:))
