8-31-2009 - Putting all my arms and legs back in the wagon.
So today, I put all my arms and legs back in the wagon. I say this because I have not completely fallen off of my weight-loss/exercise wagon, but I have definitely diverted away from it. I have made my mind up that after this weekend (for the love of ice cream!) I was going to get back into my regime like I was 2 months ago.
So today I went to Zumba, and plan on it wed and fri this week. I am also going to work in some bike riding. I am going to use those two activies to get me going for awhile. While I was in Zumba today, I remembered why I loved it in the first place. It’s so fun! And plus, as usual, I am just down about how i look and feel. I haven’t lost weight in 2+ months and it’s disheartening. I know I can do, I did it! Lost 8 pounds in a month not too long ago! I just need focus, dicipline and things to keep my mind off of it.
But you know…I knew this was going to happen. It always does, so kudos to those of you can 100% stay on your game, because unless it feels natural to you, you will stick your hands or feet of the wagon from time to time. But I feel better, and I want to get in better shape. So for those of you who are going through or went through the same feelings, it’s ok! Just get back on! :-) It’s a lot easier this time than it was for me before for some reason. I just was like… “Wow, this spring was awesome… what happened? I wanna feel like that again! And I know I can do it!” I wanted to kick my own butt for not stricking with it - in the past I made excuses and didn’t care…
Good luck buddies, you can do it! Stick with it, and if you can’t/couldn’t, just focus your energies back on what you liked about exercising!
