Day 7, Week 1

Wow, I made it through a whole week of staying on-plan.  I can’t honestly remember the last time I did that.  The last couple of days have been rough, though.  Stress brings the munchies.  And, I’ve still not started exercising.  It always comes back to the exercise for me.  So, I’m writing a list to help convince myself.

Reasons to exercise:

  1. Weight loss will be easier and quicker
  2. I will have less jiggle.
  3. I can have more calories if I want.
  4. I will feel more energetic.
  5. Its a natural mood enhancer.
  6. It will make my heart stronger.
  7. I can have the accomplishment of actually following through with something.
  8. I will make my girls proud one day.
  9. I will be more likely to maintain my weight loss.
  10. I can meet other runners by joining a running club and running in 5K’s
  11. I can be in Onederland by my birthday.
  12. I can be at goal by the end of the year.

    Wow. Congrats staying on track. Good luck with the exercise. Its hard to get up and move but once you do its easier to do it again the next day.
