Push Up Challenge....Broke My Plateau!

-
Ladies...I have been working towards my 100 consecutive man push-ups for several months now. I am still moving towards to it! I had been kind of discouraged, because I had only made it to 40 push-ups. My friends still said that was a great accomplishment. But then it happened last week. I made it to 42 push-ups!!! Woohoo!! :) Much closer to 100! I believe I broke the plateau because I stopped putting so much pressure on myself to break the 40 mark. So now, I am on to 45 push-ups. Hopefully, I will make it this week...but no pressure. :)

Your "goal girl",

I had thought about all the areas in my life that it seemed like I failed, but I kept getting back up again. I see although the process was painful just like the guy on the video...I have grown tremendously in every area of my life. I was talking to a friend this past Saturday. I have been at my job for several years, with no hopes of a promotion or increase in salary. She said to me....well Ericka create your own breakthrough. She said I believe alot of your frustrations will go away when you get a new job and recognize your worth. When I watched the video they told him he would never walk again and he was overweight.

How It All Began.......Part II

-
The first day I was so excited and pumped. I decided everyday that I worked out to post it on Facebook. Another form of accountability. Little did I know this would be a great support for me in the end. I also sensed accomplishment by posting and that I could go on. After the third day, my legs were very sore, I had to massage them for about thirty to forty five minutes before the pain would go away. But I did not let that stop me. This also happened other times during the thirty days. I made sure to eat correctly, I even fasted sweets and watched the fried foods that I ate. Every day of the challenge I pressed forward, even if I did not want to workout, I looked passed my feelings and looked at the end result. This challenge was one of the most difficult things that I have ever done so far in my life. The videos were extremely hard and they took great effort to finish them at least at that time. But as I began to count the days down, I began to see the results that I had always wanted
