Friday Again

Hey All,
      First I have to thank both James and Jack for the advice I was looking for from yesterday's post. Both have provided me with some really good ideas to increase physical activity on a day to day basis. I am going to put both ideas to work in the next week. I'm not putting it off, I just need to get the weights and find an indoor pool in my area and it's operating hours. So again, thanx guys it's good to know that this process for support actually works. Remember it you need it I've got your backs as well.

      This week has been a terrible week. I've been under the weather, not really motivated and after reading the article (I provided the other day), I have been making several mistakes. Most of the week I have had only 2 meals a day and they weren't exactly to plan. I wasn't eating junk just not properly. I realized that I have made several mistakes like skipping meals and finding myself very hungry later in the evenings. Most of the week I didn't do anything about it but as I started feeling better I have eaten later in the night to satisfy the hunger. Again, not junk food but still late in the evening and even just before bed. I don't suspect that I am going to have a positive week as far as the results are concerned. I am however going t wait until Sunday to get the results.

     Each week seems to present itself with new challenges that I need to figure out  how to handle. This is why it is so hard to handle, keeping on track is difficult. Not just because it's hard to eat a certain way but because you are changing your way of thinking. It doesn't sound like a hard thing to do cause you only plan or picture the change under perfect circumstances. Now that's not really how it works. Everyday you need to deal with new challenges that knock you off track. Why? Because we have a lifetime of habits that have developed dealing with most scenarios in our lives. It's a very natural process, it's why we react to situations the way we do. This is what I am coming to realize is the one true challenge. We want to make a change but we don't have that lifetime of good habits for every scenario. This is what we need to develop through this process. Well, that's what I'm thinking right now, if you have anything to add please do so, I'd like to know what you all think.

Have a good one, keep strong and don't let little setbacks keep you from your goal!

Thanx,
Looper
