The battle December 6, 2007
Posted by spacemom in : Nance , 6 commentsHow many readers out there battle with weight? I figure most of us do. It’s a constant battle. We are offered so many bad foods that it is hard not to take some of them up. In addition, we have a fairly sedentary lifestyle compared to even 50 years ago.
I have a gym membership. It has almost been a year. I lost 3 months of using it because of the mono, but since September, I’ve been back in the groove. I work at the gym 2X a week, Mondays and Thursdays. Mondays when the girls have swimming lessons there and Thursdays at the branch near Luna’s daycare because Jay works at home, so I have the time to myself. In addition, I *should* be exercising at work, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, but I haven’t been. I’ve been getting Tuesdays and that is it.
So my battle is this: Try to get Fridays added to my exercise routine. Monday-Weights while the girls swim. Tuesday-Bike and watch "Lost" on my iPod or read, Wednesday-no exercise yet Thursday-Weights after dropping off Luna and Friday Bike and read or watch Lost.
I have gained 5 lbs in the last month. Time to get them off. In addition? I realized that I go into my depressive slumps when I don’t do any exercise. And I didn’t over Thanksgiving and then my suitcase fell open and I lost my exercise clothes in travel (thanks TSA!) so I didn’t exercise last week. I forget that I need to exercise to keep my chemicals up….
So, This is my battle. Lose those 5 lbs over the next month, and get Fridays on my exercise routine.
What’s your battle?
