Better today

This past weekend was horrible at work and yesterday I was in a funk all day.  I’m not sure why.  I was totally unproductive.  I laid around the house all day, ate like crap and of course no exercise.  I hate when I get like that.  But I’m feeling better today.  I woke up this morning and despite yesterday the scale went down a little bit.  I got up, had some breakfast and decided to start tackling my to do list.  I actually got a good bit done today.  I did pretty good at lunch.  And most importantly I made myself exercise today.  I did one hour on my treadmill, even running some thanks to upbeat music on my iPod.  Then I took my dog on a 30 minute walk outside- he was very excited!  My eating has been better too, however I really need to go get some groceries.  I have enough salad mix for a small salad with supper but other than that no more fresh fruits or veggies in the house.  I have been craving fresh fruit, which means I’m not eating them like I should.  I must restock soon.  It is amazing what exercise does for my mood.  I’m feeling so much better than yesterday, I know exercise makes me feel better and allows me to deal with stress and I’m more productive and I hate that I will do good for a while then slack back off again.  It just seems to be a never ending pattern that I do good, then not so good.  I am getting better though, my slacking phases are fewer and shorter than in the past.  I just need to remind myself more often of my goals and work harder to reach them.  I know I can do it.

    Cheers to you for getting back on track! I was sick the past couple of days and my diet just went out of the window. I ate much more than I should and I suffered. My poor belly is no longer use to that kind of abuse. I’m back on track today and readying your blog helped me!
