An INSANITY kind of day

So today I woke up thinking, "Today is an INSANITY kind of day." I am loving PIYO, I really am. I am getting some amazing results and most of it is happening on the inside. The kind of results you don't see. Our outward transformation is NOT as important as our inward transformation. The before and after pictures we see and take should ONLY be the tip of the iceberg. When we only focus on looking good, we are missing a vital element in our fitness journey. Now, I realize that looking good may be our inital motivation and the rest tends to sneak up on us. I challenge you to let it happen and embrace, if not make a conscious effort, for the inner change!

Now, after completely losing control and eating all that sugary junk yesterday it helped me realize sometthing. Although I am eating healthier than I ever have, I might not be feeding myself completely right. Let me explain....no there is too much, let me sum up. When I say I eat no sugar, I mean NO sugar. As in no fruit(except green apples) or honey, refined, unrefined sugar. Zero....ziiiip! The reason for this is because sugar in any form for me makes me feel sick and I mean literally. You know the feeling when you start to get a cold or the flu? Your immune system is supressed and your body feels achy? In addition, your brain fogs up, emotions go haywire (we're talking some serious stuff here people) Well THAT my friends is what sugar does to me! Total buzz kill right? Of course right! This largely due to possibly having systemic candida(a systemic yeast infection). 
Well, after losing control yesterday, I realized I was stronger and endured better through my 50 minute PiYo workout. Sugar lovers rejoice! Haha! Just kidding! I realized that when I take care of my body, especially with exercising, I am able to handle more. This morning I ate a banana...A BANANA! Do you have any idea how many grams of sugar AND carbs are in a banana? A million I think. Ha! I forget the exact amount, but A LOT! A few months ago that would've killed me!

I did Hardcore on the Floor and I may have, perhaps not been into the workout? Mainly because I felt I needed more. So what's a girl to do? I grabbed a banana and ate it, because I'm not a quitter, and pushed play with Shaun T doing Cardio Power and Resistance! WWWWWHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAATTTTTT? Did that just happen? Oh.....it did. And it did in a serious way. 
I felt so strong and did that workout better than I ever have! Go ME! Ha! 
So guess what? I am going expand my eating chart! Is anyone else as excited as me about this? Probably not....haha! 
I also realize that when I exercise and take care of my body right, I am able handle life in general. You get rewards like being able to eat a banana!!! Kind of silly I realize. Nonetheless! A reward!!! 
Do you want to be a more positive person and force for good? Exercise and nutrition! 
Do you want to have the energy you always wanted to DO the things you always wanted?
Exercise and nutrition!
Do you want to have an overall sense of health and welllness? 
Exercise and Nutrition! 
Well now that I have written an epistle, I shall retire to my kitchen and whip up a shakeology smoothie.....with a banana!!!!
