Quickie

Oh, blog, you haven't been forgotten! Please forgive me. The following post is short and poorly written, I just need to get these thoughts down.

This week has been full of needed realizations, discipline and successes. Lets break it down.

• I realized I love my job more than I thought. I was given an opportunity to talk about myself professionally and without filter I just rambled on about how attached I was to 'my agents, my bosses, and my office' While I knew I was invested , I was not aware to the extent I find personal happiness in my daily grind. The same day I had this moment of appreciation I was offered my own office with a door and window. It was if the universe was rewarding me for my loyalty.
• I will be as badass as my new office. I have tons of ideas that I WILL put into action to create success for each agent. This is just the beginning.
• I am now on day 15 of no BOOZE, no STARCH, no SUGAR, no DAIRY. Results: Im shrinking! I look healthier and this last workout I powered through with no breaks. I am even more energetic than usual, so much so I catch myself when I am going a mile a minute, overwhelming the people around me. At least sometimes I feel that way. 75 more days to go on my personal challenge. I totally got this.
• Success! I got on a scale: 166 as of this morning. While this is far from my ideal weight it is 43 pounds from where I started a year ago.
• I about had a 'f* this' moment working out on Wednesday. I didnt eat before I went and half way through my sprint run I hit a mental wall. I signed up for a marathon! POWER THROUGH, WUSSY! Ugh, I did and then I questioned later if I worked it out to the best of my ability. Heck, I even questioned if I finished the workout prescribed, but David who watched me run said he was sure he saw me do 5 reps of sprints (with Thrusters in between). I should just go into Crossfit and ask who is going to be my witness.
• Friday was kick butt. I did 5 pull ups with the gray band. Since I am around powerhouses, I didnt say anything but inside I celebrated. I am getting there, in small moments. We practiced pistols and I powered through what I could. My legs were already pissed from two days before. The WOD itself was GRACE. 30 reps of power clean and jerk for time. 31lbs at 2:4?. Looks like Ill be adding some more weights! 70% of my previous max was too easy (even though it was a tough session) I need to practice my form more. I could feel my back arching, and Shanna noticed as well. Hello broomstick. shoulders back, chin down...

There are several things I must do this week to be the person I want to be: Call some family members who have been reaching out, write a few thank you letters and finish my taxes.

Can I have a witness?!
