It is back to school time for a good many people. This is the first September in two years that it's not for me too. Strange...
But, I still feel like it's a time for new beginnings. Why, I'm not sure. For some reason when I woke up this morning I felt like it being September 1st was an omen...a good omen. One in which things might be turning around for me. There's really no reason to think this, it's just a feeling, but it's a nice one to have.
The last few days were rough on the motivation. I don't know why. Just got in a funk. I slacked on the exercise and good food choices. Guess those two weeks of maintaining hit me harder than I thought. I kept a calendar of the days I exercised
Yea, it turned out pretty sad. I'm not thrilled with my lack of dedication last month. I don't know what happened. I was all revved up when I got back from Vegas. But as you can see, the last few days of the month kinda sucked.
But, I have a new calendar for a new month and I have new goals. Here's this months calendar:
And what's this month's exercise goal?
I'm hoping the calendar will help make things move. I also have a goal of 8 pounds by Oct. 9th. (which is my birthday). I have officially 39 days to get there. Doable? Hope so. Especially if I hit my goal of 20 days of exercise in Sept. I have one 5k scheduled this month - Sunday, September 19th in Baltimore. There's one day down...19 to go!
You are so much more dedicated than I. This morning my husband and I woke up randomly around 5:20-ish. He nagged me to go exercise. I was tired and refused. Sometimes you just gotta sleep.
ReplyDeleteI hear ya! I am so not a morning exerciser. I do much better doing it in the afternoon or before dinner. Though I do go for my Sat. runs in the morning, that way I have the rest of the day. But yea, getting up early to exercise? Nope. Not happening. LOL!
