I was going to avoid such a post, but I thought I would be honest. In a journey, there are the typical highs and lows, right? Well, I'M-IN-A-RUT!
I have wanted to keep all the posting on this site positive, because no one wants to hear negatives. But I thought I would keep this real. Every weight loss journey has it's downs and if I didn't share mine, how would I learn from it? How would it be obvious that I am actually doing this journey, not just talking about it?
Now I'm not admitting to completely falling off the wagon. (It certainly happens, but not this time) I am just having a hard time getting exercise every day. I have been overly tired and that makes it hard. (Probably because I haven't been regular with the exercise for a couple of weeks.) I did it last year, from January 1st to December 31st, every day. I know I am capable to do it again. But this time, it's been a little harder and I am not finding the same success. I am human.
I can say this, by not working out every day, I can feel it. Physically, emotionally, with my appetite, I can totally tell that I'm not regularly exercising. This shows me just how important it is and how much our bodies depend on us to find time to squeeze it in everyday, not just once and awhile.
I am currently working on a routine for our entire family and you can bet I'm setting a specific time to workout. It's a must if you want to be regular with your exercise!
I am nervous about getting a good routine set once I go back to work at the end of next month! Right now I do it around 9:00am. Not so possible when I will be in the middle of teaching 2nd period Spanish at that time! Plus I will be working two evenings a week too. I will be interested to know about your schedules/routines. I need one!
ReplyDeleteI HAVE to do it at night. It's the only time I can do it in peace. I am also a night eater, so when I workout at night, I don't snack. It's a win-win for me.
ReplyDeleteI'll share my routine/schedule when I get it all fine tuned. It seems like it's a necessary evil doesn't it?
