</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Now is time for confession.&nbsp; I've already screwed up one of my goals (however since EP lost my goal post does it really doesn't count, when a tree falls in the forest ....).&nbsp; We are learning a new system at work, so I had to work some overtime at the beginning of the week which of course completely blew my exercising when I got home.&nbsp; Now my excuse for not doing it later in the week is nothing.&nbsp; I do wish I was one of these morning people and could start my day with it, but sadly it is enough to drag my lifeless body out of bed when I am supposed to get up.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>I keep meaning to look for the Beck book that <a href="http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/nothinhangin/">Glory</a>&nbsp;is reading and using.&nbsp; I'm hoping to head to the mall after work so I'll have to stop by Barnes and Noble and see if I can find. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>And going back to my sad excuse for not exercising this week, there are still 3 days left in the week so not all hope is lost.&nbsp; So workout Fri, Sat and Sun, I have absolutely no excuse not to!
