Let the 12 weeks begin.

I am so incredibly excited - I can see my results down the tunnel and have 12weeks to achieve them - and now I am armed with the tools to get there....the execution is getting there. I deliberately started right from the beginning of pre-season so that I created some habits. Habits like - getting out of bed early in the morning to do my walk....I will admit this is my biggest challenge, once I walk out the door I am fine as I am on my way, but the energy to get out of bed is hard. I am finding that if I don't get up and get moving early and decide to sleep in - it is totally screwing my whole day up. When coming home from a walk/jog feeling full of energy and get my housework all organised within a couple of hours and feel organised - if I don't go and I get up at 7 it takes a couple of hours to feel awake/alive and I just don't have the motivation to do anything. So I need to get up.....body clock is getting used to it now - at 6am this morning, I was wide awake - totally unheard of on a Saturday morning for me.
My greatest disappointment so far was waking at 6am this morning. I was all psyched up for a 17km walk this morning and instead of my alarm going off at 4:15am this morning, nothing went off and I woke at 6am and burst into tears because I had missed it. I should have been starting the walk with a group at 5am. So instead I am mowing the lawn and going for a walk this arvo - see how I go with calorie burning.
My greatest joy so far has been getting on the scales to know I have lost nearly 4kgs in preseason and I was 600grams off hitting 90kgs - 90kgs has been the most stubborn number on the scales for me, I always seem to get close, but can never get under it and stay under it. This morning I am 200grams off so I know I will see the 80's this week and that is soooooo incredibly awesome. I am loving this journey so far and I am stoked with my results-  come the end of the next 12weeks and you won't be able to wipe the smile off my face.
How awesome does it feel to know you are changing your life for the better it feels like I am being given a second chance at an awesome life!!
