Double Crunch Challenge: Day 5

Let me answer your question: Yes, it still hurts; but not as much as it did yesterday. That means my body just might be getting used to it. I spread out the crunches throughout the day – fifty when I wake up, fifty just before (or when I get) to work, fifty at lunch, fifty when I get home or after dinner, then fifty before I got to bed. It only really hurts once I hit the forty mark.

The greens: last night I had green beans. Leftovers went good in a salad for lunch today too. Tonight: I’m thinking spinach. Raw, in a salad. Throw some fruit in there and a light vinaigrette – that’s good eating!

Today’s question from PrimalStride:

Where do you get your power from? Are you able to survive, to thrive, and to flourish through the strength of your friendships with others? Do you have a deep religious fervor that keeps you going? Perhaps you just know, deep within yourself, that you are able to do whatever you wish?

I said in yesterday’s update that I wanted to be able to do physical activities with my family without running out of steam. I believe that drives me more than anything else. I am a Jesus follower, however, I don’t know that my relationship and belief in him would push me to get in shape; though I do like to joke every once in a while that “the Catholic Church says that gluttony is one of the deadly sins; I don’t know if it will send you to hell, but it sure will get you to heaven faster.”
