Great day, great progress!
Yesterday was a great day of success. At 8:00 last night I realized I hadn't exercised. Not being a night person, I didn't feel like exercising. But - I decided to start up the Wii and do 20 minutes of at least some yoga and some balance games. Before I knew it, I had done yoga, balance, aerobics and even some strength training! 44 minutes total, and it wasn't even a big deal.
Getting started is the key.
Once again, last night I was reminded that the important thing is to just get started. Disciplining myself to get up, get moving, (or in the case of last night, KEEP moving) or drive to the Y, start-up the Wii, whatever... just move in the right direction. I guess at that point, momentum takes over! Thank God for momentum!
Tempted to eat junk.
When I got home from the office last night, Lauren was itching. The Benadryl didn't seem to be helping. She was frustrated. So, as I prepared to head back out the door to go talk with a pharmacist, I realized I was really hungry. Initially, I was going to reach for some junk food to take with me. Then I stopped in my tracks. It would be just as easy to grab a Nutrilite blueberry bar and some string cheese. Throw in an XS Energy drink-and dinner was served in the car! A healthy dinner, at that! The best part? Lauren was feeling better by 7:00. And I was felling good too!
Two great decisions. One very important Victory!
