Default going to the gym tonight - or else!!!

Ughhh!

I haven't been to the gym in TWO AND A HALF WEEKS. Apparently my weightloss efforts haven't suffered too terribly, as I'm still averaging 3-ish pounds a week.

That's no excuse though! I have been slightly under-the-weather with a sniffle or two, but nothing that should keep me from hitting the cardio machines.

Soooooooo, I'm going back tonight, or ELSE! I'll report (truthfully) tomorrow, and if I didn't go, I'd like everyone to lecture me!!!

You get your butt to the gym, missy!

Hoenstly, we all have those spurts. I haven't been to the gym in 3 days, which isn't two and a half weeks, but if I don't get myself there tonight, it could easily turn into a 2 week thing. It has before. It's a habit I constantly have to stay on top of. I only lost a lb this week... and I am convinced I could have lost more if I had just pushed myself and gone to the gym once or twice more. Good luck!!!!

good for you! not only for getting back to exercising but for still managing to lose some pounds thats great, you must be doing something right! And you'll feel so proud of yourself once you get home tonight from the gym, I always feel good after I've done it that it helps get me back there the next time.

I go Mon-Thurs. It's like going to work, it HAS TO BE DONE! NO EXCUSES! That's my theory. It works for me. But then I get 3 days off in a row (Fri-Sun) so I'm like, cool... I get a little break. Works for me!

Just think of how awesome you are going to feel for only a minimal amount of time (compared to how much time we spend on everything else in the day)!!

It may be because I've only recently joined a gym, but it's been what I look forward to the most during the day.

I really like the feeling I get after working out...I have night classes and work though so I usually go 3 days in a row without working out...

Working out tomorrow though!
