You cannot perform in a manner inconsistent with the way you see your self. - Zig Ziglar

I am strong, determined and dedicated.

Yesterday morning started out at -9 degrees Fahrenheit when glancing at the weather app on my phone around 4:00 AM . With a an expected high of 16 degrees, I wondered how I would get my 12K steps in for the day because my 2017 criteria for lunchtime walks during the winter when I am in the office is that the temperature has to be over 30 degrees with winds of 10 MPH max. The ground also has to free of ice and finally no precipitation. I am a warrior. I am strong, determined and dedicated. I bundled up, changed into my boots around 12:30 PM and went for a half hour walk with an outdoor temperature of 11 degrees. It is 2018, a new year, a new me. The 2017 version of me was old, cold and weak. Bring it on 2018!

Fast forward, it's 7:58 PM, Jeopardy is ending, banged out 20 minutes of H.I.I.T on the treadmill (15,924 steps for the day), 7 minutes of bicep curls and 3 minutes of pull ups.

I wrapped up the evening with my 1st of the day @ 8 PM, YES!!!!, a 24 hr fast. The meal was a GIANT steak on a plate and in a separate bowl, lettuce with 2 TBS of ACV & 2 TBS of Blue Cheese dressing.

What a great day!!!! I am strong, determined and dedicated.

Make it count everyone

PS.

I will be mentioning quite a bit about Zig Ziglar this month in my journals because this was my audible subscription for Jan, "The Goals Program - How to stay motivated" - I am listening to it during my commutes and my mind is on FIRE!

Well done - do you burn more calories walking when it's cold? I suppose your body has to use more to keep your temperature up - dunno
