Anyway, maybe I was crazy for deciding to start my active healthy living the same week of the year that I'm crazy busy. But I felt that I had something to prove to myself: I can do it even when I'm busy. On Monday, the longest school day during the week for me (13 hours), I got home and I excused myself from going out to exercise. But then I got to thinking... if I can do it today then I can do it pretty much any day. I wanted to prove to myself that I truly believe that, "There is always enough time for the things that we choose to make the most important in our lives."
I did it! I got out to run/walk everyday this past week! I have also returned to doing a much better job of actively choosing what I eat instead of just winging it. It's been a successful week! I've lost 5.5 pounds! and I've walked over 21 miles!
Here's some yummy soup I made this week!
John! You won! It was you versus your thirteen hour day, but you won. Good work. I have some of my own goals to set, and I think I need more your attitude. :) Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteJohn, once again, you're an inspiration to me. You know that I'm normally pretty good about setting and working on goals, but for the last while I haven't been doing much in that realm. But after seeing what you've been doing, I know I have no excuses. Time to bust out my goal chart again! :)
