1st day back at the gymOct 08 2008 06:48
So, it's been close to 3 weeks since I went to the gym. I'm so distressed that it took so long to get back because I was in SUCH a good groove. It takes either 14 or 21 days to establish a habit (good or bad) so I really don't want to re-establish my bad habit of sleeping late, not working out, etc. It seems like I'm so much hungrier when I DON'T work out. Weird.
But I did have to get well enough to return to the gym bc I didn't want to be passing out or anything-since I've still been having some dizzy spells and stuff. It was frustrating because I really had to scale back quite a bit on the elliptical to keep my heart rate within an acceptable range. I know I haven't lost everything I worked for, but it's still a little frustrating to back slide. Anyway. New day...at least I'm aware of all this and am anxious to get back in the gym. You would never have heard that from my former self. :)
Its amazing how much our thoughts and our behaviors change once we learn to condition ourselves =) Old habits can creep up on us.....good job getting back to the gym!

Hey, you need a new journal blog =) I just wanted to say that I hope the gym is working out good for you now and that you are still in that routine =) I also wanted to thank you for your encouragment in the comment you left from my journal entry. I am trying to find another job, but its like no one is calling me back. Maybe its my resume, or maybe there are other things. Blah. I am still at the job I don't like very much, but hey, I hope to get another job soon. I hope you are doing well too =) Have a great weekend! |
