Hey guys! Thought I would take a moment and stop by. I just got back from the gym and I pretty much gave my body a beating.
Today was the first day back for me after being sick for a few weeks. So I woke up this morning, said a quick.."God help me get through this time"...and lets get 'er done!
I actually decided before my workout to give myself that "extra" bit of energy by making me one nice strong black coffee(something I dont usually have).
You know.... to be honest with you all...With me falling ill, I really wanted to bail out of this Tony Little infomercial thing. Even though I was really excited about it in the beginning, me getting sick just kind of put a damper on it all.
I mean that took away 2 good weeks, that could have made a difference on my output.
And even more important than that...it also took away 2 good weeks of where I should have been building up my inner confidence while getting through the toughness of something like that for when the time comes and producers ARE here.
So what I did you might laugh but I had written the producer last week. I filled him in on how i got really sick for 2 weeks..was way too weak to work out...and basically would understand if he wanted to keep me more for later...or if anything else comes up to give me a call. After all he is a good contact to have that I made being in the business of marketing products for different companies.
But, I never did hear back.smiles
However in the back of my mind I guess I was really hoping that he would agree with me. Maybe because deep down I am kind of depressed about not being able to be the best I could have been. And really I can be quite the perfectionist concerning these sort of issues.
Workout and diet are two of those things that can really get to me if something throws me off course unexpectedly. If I start off real good..and screw up...then it really takes alot for me to look past that..and to leave it behind.
For example if I start a certain eating plan Monday morning..and lets say by mid afternoon or even a few days later something happened where I ended up eating something I should not have had...it REALLY can throw me off mentally. Makes me want to screw up my whole day/week because of it. I have however gotten better regarding this...but its just the mental set back that something like that can do to you.
And exercise is the same thing. I mean I gave such a good week and half of really intense hard workouts and a serious dieting plan... and within 4 days I began to see results...and in the end to get sick...after having your mind set...and being focused..really knocks you down mentally. Its like..."damn"!!Especially when you know "time is ticking"
So this is why I guess part of me was hoping that he would agree with me. But I guess I got my answer yesturday when I had a call from customs...and they told me there was something that arrived for me that weighs about 73lbs...lol
so I said..hm..let me guess..is it a brand new gazelle? And the lady on the phone said..actually yes it is..and it came right from the states directly. So i took a deep breath and said ok thanks. There was some kind of mishap concerning numbers they were trying to figure out..so this is why they called me and had to ask me questions about it I guess.
Anyways, looks like they figured it all out and it should arrive here within the next day or two...so it also looks like I wont be able to get out of it. I guess life for some reason just really wants me to do this. So i have to basically put my negative thoughts about being behind..aside..and just give it my all for the next 2 weeks and the time I "do" have left.
I have decided to eat commpletely pure stuff. Nothing bad at all!! Not even a diet drink. Its all natural...counting of calories..choosin to eat clean and working my body hard. Thats all I can do.
I wish I could have been better...but...I cannot beat myself up over it either. It was something that sadly happened that I could not fix or change.
So dear friends. Looks like its a go. I really hope it all works out. I hope that I really do a good job as far as the next 2 weeks are concerned along with the taping itself. Its going to be a great experience to have the chance to do thats for sure.
Today at the gym, I think that caffeine fix helped me actually alot. My cardio was just amazing surprisingly after the 2 weeks off. Weights were pretty good too. Perhaps these antibiotics I am still on...really opened up my lungs cause I felt actually really really good. ALot of energy..I felt fairly light...and I got through my hour of cardio no problem...weights I decided to do only 2 sets instead of my 3..and just go heavier. As heavy as possible. Only way I can cut some time off the gym.
Todays workout did take me about 2 hours..so you can see why I am a little beat sitting here.
But I plan on making these next two weeks really count...probably the most brutal 2 weeks ever that I have ever had to have myself go through.lol
No matter what...I have one focus..to really do my best. To see nothing but me making it to the end despite my body feeling warn out perhaps at times. To push myself to the max....to sware if I have to..but to give nothing less then my 100%. To mentally look past the physical intensity I am putting my body through, and to just keep it going.
I not only am hoping for some slight improvements that two weeks can give your body with proper diet and exercise...but this is the only way that I will build my inner confidence for when they come. When you discipline yourself like this, and you make it through the storm, you would be amazed at how confident you become. How good you feel inside. Even if you are NOT completely happy on the outside...this confidence takes over cause you always end up coming out stronger as a person.
And it shows. Believe me when I tell you that people around you and in your presence will feel the energy that you give off whether good or bad. If you feel like "crap" inside people know it and can feel it...if you feel "good" it gets passed on to those around you and makes any situation BETTER no matter what little things might not be perfect or if its not exactly what you hoped for. So chin up for me. Let whatever is suppose to happen happen.,
Wish me luck...next two weeks...BRUTAL.. I am hoping to take some pics when they are here...or video,.just so you guys might get to see first hand the "making" of an infomercial. Would be kind of neat to be able to do that,but not sure. It all depends if they allow me to do that or not. If I can I will.
Talk soon friends...
