P.R.I.D.E.

Personal. Responsibility. In. Daily. Effort.
First off let me say that I SURVIVED my first Boot Camp! It wasn't to horrible waking up this morning at least no worse then waking up at my normal time at about 6:30am. It kinda felt like the first day of school, I had my outfit laid out, bag packed, ate my breakfast, and left the house with plenty of time to spare. However, I don't know about you but my second day of school was always a mad dash to get everything together, get ready, and out the door running late with no time for breakfast. This is a cycle of sabotaging myself with my own laziness, is one that I'm hoping to break or at least curb. 

I think the PRIDE Acronym, which my trainer at Boot Camp Val Fujii talked about today, couldn't have been more applicable for my first day of boot camp. In order to make the changes that I want to make I have to take personal responsibility for my efforts not just my actions. No one is going to make me turn away from the drive-thru on my way home, no else is going to get up off the couch, no one else is going get me out of bed at 5am, and no one else but me can push me to do my best at each workout. So this is me taking responsibility for my actions and my efforts.....hoping to post baseline pics and measurements soon and also layout my nutrition plan.
