I’ve missed Fat Girl and Inner Skinny Chick, haven’t you? I say, let’s bring them back into the mix today.
A lot has happened over the last few months. For one, Fat Girl has begun to reclaim her territory while Inner Skinny Chick has been more than content to let her do so. It seems that it is difficult for ISC to help me maintain my weight loss goals and stay sane at school while battling our nemesis FG. I think, just perhaps, ISC needs a little help! She needs a drill sergeant to keep her focused!
Maybe I can find one…
This morning I decided that I had to get up at 5 a.m. so that I could put together some last minute notes, and look up some things that woke me up in the middle of the night about that book I was reviewing during my presentation. I just hate when I can’t remember the name of a character and I didn’t want to stand up in front of a class and look ridiculous as I tried to recall it. It was better to take care of that before I went to school.
What I came to realize this morning is that if I can get out of bed at 5 a.m. to work on a presentation, then I can get out of bed at 5 a.m. to exercise. So that is my goal for the coming week. From now on, when my feet hit the floor, I’m to be heading to the treadmill for some serious exercise!
It’s really bad when you have to tell yourself to do this, but since school started back, I have seriously neglected my workouts. I always tell myself that I will do it in the afternoon or evening, but each day I find an excuse not to do it.
When I stepped on the scales this week, I was shocked to find that I had gained back 10 pounds. It was horrifying after all the work I had accomplished over the summer. My eating habits have become rather lazy, too, so I’m in serious need of another overhaul in that department. In fact, I’ve gotten slack on so many things that I don’t know where to start!
I suppose, to create healthy habits, it has to start with exercise. If I can’t add in exercise, nothing I do is going to matter. That means making a commitment to myself to get up at 5a.m. and workout before school. My CH’s mission, should he choose to accept it, is to ask me every day if I have exercised. I don’t care how upset I get; I want someone to hold me accountable!
So… tomorrow starts the big day! Cross your fingers! And… hey… ISC… What are you doing?
Bed?
Already?
Why?
Oh, I guess sleeping would help. ‘Nite all!
