I hate falling off the wagon. I always forget just how long it takes to get back on.
This week the MO is going to be making sure I walk or bike to and from work each day. I already missed Monday morning – but I made it this morning, and it’s the goal for the rest of the week.
My other baby step for this week is to drink 1L of water each day at work. I’m pretty good at guzzling the H2O when I’m at home, but I’ll just sit and be parched all day at work, because I’m too lazy to get up and grab some water.
I wanted to tack on the “eating healthier” thing as well, but I’ve got too much unhealthy crap at home that I’m going to finish – so that will start late this week, or early next. Bottom line on that one is that it’s just not in the budget to throw away perfectly good food. I’ll just enjoy it as my “last suppers” of crap. And honestly, it’s not even that bad. It’s just not all that good for me.
Next week we also add getting up earlier, and 3 days a week of the Gym (working back up to 5 days for the week after that).
It’s frustrating picking myself up so slowly – but I’ve just gotta remember that I didn’t get in this state in a day (it’s always a slow, slippery slope down to the bottom), and I’m not going to make a complete turnaround in a day either.
when i first started to drink alot of water it was really tough (not to mention all the annoying bathroom trips). I’d suggest buying a 1.5 litre bottle, that way it minimizes the amount of times you refill 🙂
