accountability

I've been thinking about being accountable a lot lately. Accountable for my kids, for the house and for myself. But not just what I'm accoutable for but to whom I'm accountable for these things. I can be accountable to Ken, the kids, myself, really anyone I want but the main person is my Savior. You're probably wondering what this has to do with the running, biking and swimming blog and this is why it does because I'm accountable for how I care for my body. So this week my goal is to track what I eat and my exercising by posting it here snd also by discussing with my Savior the choices I'm making for the body he gave me to get me through this life.
My first choise is to give up diet coke at least for the next two weeks. During this past conference there were a couple talks that talked about addictions. I jokingly said that I was okay because they didn't mention caffine and also that I'm fine without the cafiine in my diet coke. The problem is that it is the diet coke itself that has become the addiction. So farewell diet coke you are about to be replaced by a lot of water.

how wimpy am I

I just finished a workout video that makes me think that my work at the gym has gotten way too easy. A friend said how she was doing this workout by Jillian Michaels and how she was really noticing the difference in herself. I thought what the heck I'll look into it. I went to target and it was on $9.00 so I bought it thinking if it wasn't that great I wouldn't be out much. Let me jsut say if I can make it through the first 20 minute workout without feeling l like I'm dying it will have paid for its self. It is also time to push myself a little harder on gym days.
