You guys are rock stars. Man, this week was hard for me. I just gave up on exercise a few days, and consciously decided to eat a big bowl of popcorn with my husband on Saturday night. (Date night at home, watching MIB III, love it!) The only truly difficult thing for me this challenge is the exercise. I don't even have the good excuse of being tired because I'm up with the baby, because she sleeps through the night now.
I think that laziness begets laziness. I spent a few days this last week just reading all day - only taking breaks to feed my kids - and by the end of the day, even though I had done nothing physically difficult, I felt really tired. Isn't that weird? I guess I can understand a little more how people working all day at a desk feel, and why they wouldn't be interested in going to the gym at night.
I often feel like a yo-yo. One day I'll be incredibly productive, and the next a complete lazy bum. If I wake up with a lot of energy i'll just go go go and then crash. Does this happen to any of you? How can I overcome this weakness? I need to find balance in my life, for my families sake as well as my own.
Well, lots of random thoughts for today. I've already done my exercise for the day though, thankfully! I'll have to try to do it in the morning more often. :)
Amen to everything you just said! I have SUCH a hard time with the exercising bit. But I'm resolving to do better this week!
ReplyDeleteI am a yo-yo too! I'm trying to even things out a bit, by having yo-yo days- productive in the mornings and laze in the afternoons.
ReplyDeleteExercise is my weakness. And tomorrow we have a high of 10 degrees. Blech.
