LOL!!!!
So, you all know that I have been working out for a long time BUT I have to be honest....I've hit a plateau. Now it's time to up the ante. I was given a new goal to work toward and based on this new goal...I have implemented a VERY difficult challenge. Not only will I increase my workouts to 7 days a week....I will also STOP drinking for 1 month. OMG.....putting this on paper...so to speak makes it so official. EEKKK!!!
Now...I am no saint....which means that if I am going to have a cocktail on a Friday night....I will only drink gin/tonics which pale in comparison to the caloric value of wine. Get this; one glass of wine equals 120 calories....an ounce of gin.....60 calories. For those of you who know me well....I easily plough through a bottle of wine....which equals...well let's just say that one bottle of wine equals half of my food intake in a day. DISGUSTING!! How is anyone supposed to get fit drinking wine? LOL
My apologies to you...wine gods....you are my bffs and I love you dearly....but I don't love fat...so....time out for you!!!
I have 2 months to reach my goal....but will achieve most of my success during the month (from yesterday May 9th to June 9th) of no drinking.
Now....I am sure some of you are thinking...."but Paula....your birthday is June 5th.....are you really not going to be drinking on your birthday?" to which I have to say......YES!!!! I have purposefully planned my birthday festivities already....and it doesn't include any booze....other than maybe a gin/tonic.
So there it is folks. Let's just see how focused I can be!!
Happy Tuesday world!!! Peace, love and rock n roll! xo
