Excuses

I came up with plenty:

  • I'm so tired. (Obvious)
  • My allergies are awful. (True, but not life-threatening)
  • I'm so big again, I won't be able to do the moves. (True, but I can't let that hold me back forever!)
  • The couch is so comfy. (I was actually sitting there falling asleep!)

I decided NO! No excuses. Just get up and do it.

So, I did.

Kelsie's "Pump, Jump, 'n Jab" - one of the new FIRM workouts. It was fun. I did it all the way through. What was so freakin' hard about that?!

Once I got going, I remembered how much my body craves exercise. I caught glimpses of how strong it makes me feel. I'm glad I fought the excuses.

M and I made it to the gym yesterday too. A short cardio warm-up, chest, back, and shoulders. So, 2 down and 3 to go!

We're having a much needed girls' night Thursday. We're going to watch The Women and then maybe dinner. I doubt I'll get to workout, but thanks to GirlNextDoor, I won't beat myself up about it.

And really, the eating hasn't been all that great. I don't know. I just can't seem to get a handle on it. My plan is awesome in theory but the execution of it always falls flat! I need more structure. Well-set parameters. I'll keep working on it.

Great job!

You used positive self talk and got yourself to do it!  That's terrific!

Have fun at Girls' Night tomorrow.  I know that will be a blast.

Awesome

I'm so proud of you for fighting those excuses!! Keep up the great work girl!

Excuses, Excuses

I really enjoyed the one about the couch being comfy.  LOL  Glad you were able to make it through the workouts just keep ignoring the excuses and your body with thank you.
