I don't know what is going on with me. Well that's a lie, I looked back at this time last year and realize that the same thing has been going on. I was missing workouts, not getting out of bed in the morning, and not following a sound diet plan. This got me absolutely nowhere. i seem to be doing some more self sabotaging during the winter months. I don't get it. I was doing so good up until November. I think I lost that spark that drove me to those long cardio sessions and making it to the gym everyday. I have made it sporadically to my workouts since the new year hit. i have missed more than I've made. I am finding that the room is so cold in the morning that when the alarm goes off I don't want to get out. Lame I know, but that is what is happening. I have thought of putting the clock across the room, but then my wife will get mad that it's going off at 4:30 AM. I need to figure something out with that. This is a stupid problem to have. I should get up and enjoy the time I get to spend making myself feel and look better.
The Diet
Oh Lordie......... Where do I start on this one. I will confess that I have not been strict to it. I managed to half ass it during my string of losing the 20 pounds. I have not committed to the clean eating plan that I need to. I was lucky that I was doing the right amount of half assing to help me lose all that. I now need to do some planning for my daily meals. I did some, but it did not stick. If I want to get to where I want to be I need to refocus. i put in all this effort at the gym only to derail it during the rest of the day with crap. I need to figure out how to fit in smaller meals at work. I get very busy and need something quick. I know one alternative is to bring in Meal Replacement Shakes pre-made. That is easy and effective, but costly. Right now my budget cannot support that expense, so it's back to the drawing board. I have to do some serious thinking these next couple of days. I need to get a plan that is effective, affordable, and do able.
This is where I am right now. I know it is all mental and that if I want something bad enough I will find a way to get it done. The stinging question is, HOW BAD DO YOU WANT IT???
Thoughts to ponder during my time at work today.

it needs to be a part of your life, not a part time gig. just like getting up, eating breakfast, taking a shower, things you dont even think about, you just get them done. Eating right and working out need to be a part of your life full time, no excuses.
