Now for an awesome update from one of the Lotus athletes that has been giving it her all and diligently following her Primal 90 Day Journal. I love to hear these stories and see how these 90 days are helping people well beyond their fitness lives. Way to go Kim...you're a great example for all of us! Keep up the great work:-)
Here is what Kim shared with me:
Hi Eve,
As I reflect over the last 25 days of the 90 day challenge, I spent a few minutes looking back at my journal pages. I must say that some of my personal goals have been met and some of my physical goals are in progress and some have been forgotten. It was good to look back and remember what and where I want to be in these areas. My success so far begins in my daily "quiet time". I wanted to make a commitment to spend time reading my devotional, writing scripture and journaling again. I have always loved "quiet time", but have had trouble making it a priority. It has been a GREAT 25 days of finding my strength in God and starting my day with peace of mind. Secondly, journal my sleep patterns, my play patterns, etc.... has been a huge eye opener to see how these areas affect my daily activity. Scoring areas has also been interesting and giving one word to describe my day has been fun. I have journaled a list of the words I have chosen so far: Pushed, attitude, busy, fun, happy, new knowledge, creative, loved,completed, calm, done, content. In addition, meeting with Dr. Pamela was a huge desire for me. Making my medical care a priority and dialing it in is just plain responsible. (waiting on lab results)
As far as my physical goals, I have experienced new strength and a better attitude of "MIND over MATTER". I am feeling less anxiety leading up to a workout and more desire to push. As far as my diet goes that continues to be easy some days and harder on other days, but I need to remember that what I put into my mouth directly affects ALL other areas of my life, especially my moods. :)
There is balance in my heart, mind and soul right now, AND that feels great!!! Even if I still can't do double unders, etc... I feel it is a process and part of the CF journey.
You may not have wanted to know all my shit, but there you go. Thanks Eve for always making me WANT to better myself in a healthy balanced way-which directly affects the people in my life.xx
Kim
