I honestly woke up this morning not wanting to go and work out. I got up and I got everything packed and ready for my day. I even had some time to just sit and relax. Well I found as I was by my fireplace with my cat all cuddled up by the heater I began to find myself wanting to not go work out and just hang out with the cat. (Excuse #1 Ready) I've worked really hard the last three days and I deserve a day I'll make it up on Saturday. Who am I kidding! I began to find myself lying to myself. I even had my husband convinced that is exactly what I would do.
I even at the audacity to tell me husband that I miss showering in my own shower the gym shower just weren't cutting it for me (Excuse #2). I began to think that I should be grateful for even being able to shower daily. :) I then talked myself out of the excuses and finally gave in this morning and walked out of my house at 5:50am to begin my morning workout.
Well I began to ponder about it and knew that I was kidding myself and that I would not make up the day so I just got up and went and worked out.
Destination: The Gym: When I finally got to my destination I felt great! No I felt awesome after working out! I just felt like my body is ready for all of this and I am willing to put up with just about anything.
Until the full the rest of my day started and I realized my number one enemy is..... myself. I wish I could tell you that it's somebody else, but realistically it never has been it has always been me. I get down on myself and then become very self critical about my image. Then the 2nd worst enemy that would discourage me would be STRESS.
I can't believe how much stress can add on to your life and become a discouragement then an encouragement. Ok, I know that is probably why most of us gain weight anyhow, because of stress in our world. If life could just be still at times I think their would be more success stories about people being able to lose weight. If their just was no such thing as stress, but we live in a broken world and I guess there really isn't any excuse for me. Yes I am trying to find excuses, I always have tried and it just doesn't seem to ever work out. You think I would catch on to this theory and stop making up excuses!
Valuable Lesson learned today was to not make excuses!
2nd Lesson Learned today was that if your not prepared then you won't succeed. So no procrastinating!
Well if you've been reading my blog I've been writing that I've been tired but except I have only spelled out the word tire :) So I guess that proves my point I am tired and I am going to wake up tomorrow for day 3 of Boot camp!! Tomorrow will be a better day. Did I tell you that I have Fridays off and I am going to get up at 4:30am to go to my boot camp. Go ME!!!! :)
Your weightloss journey friend,
Desiree' May
