CALLING MYSELF OUT....

I have mentioned in my previous posts about my May31 Challenge.  I am happy to put myself on blast and announce publicly that I did not complete the challenge.  I realized that through the challenge I set un-realistic goals.  To cut everything out was not realistic for me and my lifestyle.  I did learn a lot about myself in this challenge. I learned that my mental, will always be set in "athlete" mode.  That is a switch I am unable to turn off, and the physical side of me has been having a hard time accepting it.  I know what I am capable of, and what I have accomplished in my past and what I continue to accomplish daily.  As an athlete I understand the concept of failing and take it as a learning lesson.  I think it is important to show ALL sides of yourself because many only tend to show the things that they WANT to show.  Yes I failed at this challenge!! Yes I was not able to complete this challenge.  Does this challenge defy me?  No!!  I have learned that I need to set limits on myself and do what is realistic for me.  I have to listen to my body, because I am no spring chick anymore.  I will continue to set workout challenges but make sure that they work for me.  Maybe you have failed at a challenge/diet/quitting a bad habit, etc.  It does not matter how many times you FALL down, BUT HOW MANY TIMES YOU GET UP!!!  I am an every day Wife and Mother that will always be trying to find what fits for me and my family.  It humbles me when I realize I am weak in my strength because it reminds me to RELY ON HIM.  I will continue to do the best I can do and there will be some days that are better than others.  So if I am speaking to you, I want to encourage you.... Shake it off, and get up with me!!!  Yes, we may have failed and not succeeded, but why should that stop us from moving forward?  Life is a learning process and we will NEVER get it right.  Let's be the BEST that we can be for ourselves, and for our families.  I am determined!!!  So this blog post is calling myself out publicly, to let others know that I did NOT complete the May Challenge.  Maybe some of you have been going strong in the May Challenge!!!! If so, keep up the amazing work!!!! I am proud of you!!!! Keep Going, You Can Do It!!!  Let me know the results and if you feel healthier.  Here on my blog post and on my Instagram I will never claim to have it all figured out, or say that I am a professional.  What I can tell you is that you will always get 100% honest and realness with me.  I am not afraid to show my flaws because they reflect the beauty and perfections of My Savior that died for me.  I hope you enjoyed this CALL OUT on myself  and maybe even in some weird way it might have inspired you :)  Here is moving onto other workout challenges in the near future!!!
