Same old thing
Not much to write. Diet is going well and so is exercise. I think I’m getting close to the time when someone is going to ask “Have you lost weight?” I see a few of my friends looking at me more closely but I know sometimes people hold off because if you ask someone that and they haven’t lost weight sometimes people worry that they are implying that you should. Weird thoughts, I know…maybe this is another example of me over-analyizing everything.
Today might be a tiny bit difficult because I’m not going to be able to exercise. My son has physical therapy after school which means I miss my workout time. On top of that I’m going to be tired because the baby decided to get up at 3:53. Why is it he only gets up early when it’s my night to listen to him? The last 2 times it has been my night he has gotten up around 4:00 while he’s sleeping through for my hubby. And right now he’s getting a breathing treatment and is NOT happy. Oh well, 8 more minutes and I can pick him up and give him a bottle.
So my goal for today is to trudge through the tiredness and not let missing exercise give me an excuse to go off plan. Even with missing today I will have worked out 5 days this week so I’m just allowing my muscles to repair.
“trudge through the tiredness and not let missing exercise give me an excuse to go off plan” is a GREAT goal. This is when it’s easier to go back to the all-or-nothing approach, and it’s great that you’ve identified the risk and are not falling for it! And, your body will appreciate the rest day after 5 days of exercise!
A rest day once a week is important, too. Make today yours, and you’ll be back in the swing tomorrow.
“I think I’m getting close to the time when someone is going to ask “Have you lost weight?”
Won’t that be absolutely fabulous?! I can’t wait until that happens to me.
Rest! your body definetly needs it as I am proof of that.
