Have you had one (or several) of those days where you just don't feel like doing anything? Much less a workout? Today was one of those days for me.
There was a lot to do at work, but unfortunately most of it involved me sitting at my computer typing away the day and realizing I haven't moved in 4 hours. Water intake was down, I didn't get to walk at all - uggghhh! That sort of thing leads to me just not wanting to do ANYTHING when I get home.
Today was no different. I got home from work - ready for dinner as usual. BUT - if I'm doing Insanity, I've learned I absolutely MUST do it before eating. I didn't want to. It pushes me. I was hungry. It's difficult.
I did it anyway.
I'm so glad I did. I know it's only Day 4 of Insanity for me and I'm not telling you this so I can say "Look at what I did" or "I'm so awesome because I sucked it up and worked out." No, this is HUGE. It would've been so easy to just plop down in front of the TV after a day like today and skip it. Excuses pop into my head about how I could give myself today off and work harder tomorrow. And sure I could, but that excuse will inevitably lead to another, and then another, until another year goes by and I still haven't met my goal. This is it. On a day like today, this is when we can choose a different path. I already know what the path of excuses holds. Now I'm gonna check out the path of just do it anyway.

Sign in to CommentWoo hoo! I feel like that all the time. Now I'm just trying to make it a habit to get it done in the morning as the first major thing I accomplish for the day. Good luck!
