How do you lose weight? How do you work towards the life you want?

SHEER. GRIM. DETERMINATION.

Day 29 - The Downside of Weight Loss

Morning all - I forgot to celebrate yesterday, so without further adieu:

4 weeks of working out EVERY DAY!!
and
1 week of eating healthy!!

It's all very exciting for me. One thing is making this journey very difficult. In my already packed schedule I have less time to "get things done." Since I workout every morning I have to get to bed at a reasonable time. What's wrong with that? You may ask. Well, I used to complete a lot of my projects late at night, and now I have to let things slide. Which doesn't make me happy. Plus being sick two days last week and getting nothing done has completely thrown me off with all my activities. Now, today I need to:
  • Finish three projects
  • Write four papers
  • Buy/find stuff for Saturday's set construction
  • Read four chapters from an awful textbook
  • Create a handout for my volunteer gig
PLUS:
  • Go grocery shopping
  • Prepare my meals for the week
  • Clean my house
  • Laundry
I know I won't be able to get it all done in the next day, so some will spill into Monday night and Tuesday night, so cross your fingers for me...off to complete an endless to do list.

  2. I tend to agree with Kristina, that sounds like too much stuff! I know we all get overloaded sometimes, but I say your health's gotta take precedence. There may be some short term consquences like you are reporting, but I think in the long run you'll end up finding the right balance and having more energy to tackle all that stuff going on in your life.

  3. My to-do list never gets to the to-done point. I think that's what keeps me young(ish)?? I hope you get it all done!

  4. It's a constant juggling act, isn't it?
