Its ok to skip a day....I will make it up later.

I really just wanna laugh at how crazy this is already affecting me. Really. I think about it all the time. Knowing that Ive made such a strong commitment (yes, I too am scared of commitment ladies!) and that I hold myself accountable is craaaazy. I should start an excuses list. I should jot down daily excuses I have for why something as simple as walking is so hard to do. Yesterday I walked a little extra than what Ive been doing and today I went the other direction and cut some of the workout time off. Is that normal? I was having one of those….Its ok to skip a day, I will make it up later……moments. I should know by now that it never works like that with me. I went back and fourth all day trying to decide if I was gonna do ANYTHING. I finally did. Whew. What a relief. Im still in it. Thank GOD. I don’t wanna set myself up for failure thinking that if I don’t walk everyday it will cause a problem in my process. I know for a fact that giving up will be 10 times easier if I skip a day of working out this soon. Im trying to tell myself that there are no excuses. Ive had a soar leg, an ankle that acts as if carrying around 400lbs is too much!, a bad headache, fatigue…..etc. You get the picture? I do. I went walking anyway. I made an effort and it paid off. On to the next one.

Im sad at myself cause I can’t believe Im allowing this to be an actual struggle. I know its not gonna be easy….but I felt in me that it would all work smooth since I had told myself it was something I wanted to do. Lets just say……..The mind is a very strong muscle.

I can understand why the eating part is so important. Exercising makes you not want to eat unhealthy things SOMETIMES just cause you think of how much goes into losing each calorie. Its not fair that something that takes 10 minutes to eat….may take a week to burn off! Lol. U know what I mean though. Its definitely something to think about.

Til next time. Hey, if u see me walkin’….join in.
