On a "keep it up" moment, I woke up so sore and thought about hitting the Advil so I don't look like an even older lady, I almost bailed out on working out.

Bob's Kettlebell workout yesterday followed by a 30 minute hills run outside did me in. I was planning on doing the workout again but I was so sore (as before mentioned) I told myself "just run for 30 minutes" any style. I was thinking if I lived in the Biggest Loser house, would Bob let me off of exercise the next day after his last chance workout? NO. WAY.

I popped onto hulu.com and got my "Bachelor: After the Show" show dish and got my run on for 30 minutes. So proud of myself. It actually made my soreness feel better.

So dorky but I did it. I am commiting to a Bob Harper challenge. He has a website called mytrainerbob.com and he asks all his viewers to commit to some healthy change.

I feel what's doable for me right now is 30 minutes of exercise and portion control until the end of the year.

My portion control has been out the window as of late and I've been supersizing, supersnacking, superlazy, and getting super numbers on the scale. I need to pull back and remember I don't have to eat like I'm Paul Bunyon.

When the season starts to change and I am stressed, I eat. and eat. and eat. It's a real and embarrassing moment for me in blogland-but that's where I am at.

Anyway, what commitment would you like to challenge yourself? I'd like to cheer you on.
