Inspiration Everywhere!

I'm trying to pull inspiration everywhere I can find...

I have a vision and what I have to fight are inner battles against things that weigh me down. 

As you know, its been a tough last month or so for me in terms of sticking to a diet and a workout regimen. Although I must say, I did pretty well with P90X -- classic to lean program. On the other hand, 80% is nutrition. That's where my battle is.

Mental strength. 

That is what I need -- motivation from every angle, is what I am trying to find.

My desire to reach my goals -- yes, it is strong, and yet I am human and know my weaknesses...

Think like an athlete. I always remind myself...

Therefore, I've been feeding my soul, my heart, my mind with words of wisdom, inspiration and motivation from people I admire... 

So, let me share a few with you!

1. Jamie Eason - always has been my favorite fitness model/athlete! I love her take on faith, fitness and family! One great person -- great example for many of us!
2. Kelsey Byers - transformed her body and living the life she always dreamed of! A down to earth next door gal now, fitness model and Labrada spokesmodel (I've always ENJOYED Lean Body shakes '04 till today -- although I must say, Shakeology is a favorite of mine too!)
3. Angelica Haas - amazing transformation!! real gal, big dreams and I know she will make it!
4. Ashley Conrad - true athlete!! I love her body and her straight forward advice about fitness/ nutrition and how she is an advocate against animal cruelty!
5. Christie Wellington - strong triathlete (someone who trains hard and is mentally strong!)
6. Dusti Hillis - a new found fitness buddy! I love her daily posts/ encouragement and truly look forward to her transformation!

All of them are found on Facebook -- LIKE their page and be inspired!!

Let me end this post with a video that I found on Ashley Conrad's FB page that is inspiring!!

It's called: How Great I Am

Okay people, back to what I was doing... 

Just got off the spin bike for 40 minute hill repeats...

After watching Ashley Conrad's video where she was so darn tired from training #1 of the day -- she still mustered the strength (physically and mentally) to do workout #2 -- running the hills of Hollywood ---> I will shortly be off for a run around town! 

That's what I'm talking about!

KNOWING I CAN!
