- Goals are where I want to go and action items are how I'm going to get there. Stay focused on the goal.
- The foundation of every eating occasion should be lean protein and veggies, both as fresh as possible. (Toss in fruit, healthy fat and starchy carbs strategically). Fuji apples...my favorite.

Kelley, I'm thinking about:
*How I can't wait to hear about your hubby's next Bodybuilding Adventure
*How sore Fred is after Day1 of FLAB
*If I'm making the correct training and dietary choices
*Idiots killing pigs to avoid the Swine Flu
*How many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop
*There's really a place in Thailand called Phuket...and JLT is there
*I need to get Peanut Butter w/out added sugar (even if it's only 3g)
Very nice post, Kelley...
"I am blessed with one life. I must take care of it and give it all I've got. "
...probably my favorite of all. I wholeheartedly agree. Too often I think we only see what we 'want' and (sadly) don't appreciate what we 'have'.
Thanks for the post!
Fred
PS: I am 100% confident that one of these days you'll nail a bunch of unassisted pull-ups without breaking a sweat...(!)
MikeZ - very interesting thoughts indeed! I would bet that you are making some great choices. It's all a journey right? And every day builds on the previous one.
Fred - that's probably my favorite thought too, because really if you don't do that, you're less likely to accomplish the other things. You will definitely know about it when I do that first unassisted pull-up!
Great post Kelley .....
what am i thinking ?? - my brain is scatterbrained tonight - I have definitely got monkey mind tonight
though am thinking of doing 500 reps challenge i posted on twitter tomorrow
Nice post, Kelly! It looks like you have set yourself in the right direction, started sprinting and never looked back. That's awesome and the way it NEEDS to be done.
Keep up on the pull ups. I found that doing jumping pulls up into negatives really helped me. The gravitron and bands *thumbs down* didn't do anything. (solely my experience though, is different for everyone).
We do only have one life. Isn't it a great thing to not only realize that but care enough to appreciate it?
Roundballnz - how is that 500 reps challenge going?
Rayna - thanks for the tips on the pull-ups. I've been doing hangs and negatives in addition to the assisted ones. Funny you should say that about jumping because I'm feeling the urge! Maybe that's a good sign!
Hi Kelly, that's weird, I thought that I left a comment here before but for some reason it didn't go through.
Where do I start? I got lots of things on my mind lately. Although this is also the reason why I got the Magic Hundred. Now I got my list, I just need to start reading it...lol.
Have you seen CB's evolution of pull ups video? Here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ba7q14s5-2w --> very helpful video. I'm currently on one to 1 1/2 chin up myself. It's something I need to work on more.
Nice post! It must have felt great writing those random thoughts down even if they are random.
Hey Anna! Glad your post came through. I'll be anxious to hear how your Magic Hundred goes! I'm working on mine too. Thanks for the video link! That should be helpful! k
The Magic Hundred has helped me so much. Everything I've attained in the recent past is a direct result of it.
Sandy, thanks for visiting my blog. That's great about how The Magic Hundred has worked for you - good thing to hear. I'll be sure to post about my journey with it as well. k
Great blog and great post Kelley, you've got me thinking now. Thanks for visiting my blog and your good advice.
"Roundballnz - how is that 500 reps challenge going?"
