OK, so I don’t think as of 10 pm tonight that I will make it to the gym. But I will allow myself a pass. A high school graduation and then family picnic qualify in my books for a good reason not to get to the gym.
But more important than missing a day of working out is setting goals and boundaries. It is about understanding and accepting that one missed day does not mean I have been sidelined, never to return to my routine. This has been the problem in the past. I would start “eating right” or “working out” and then life would happen. Something would require me to make a choice. And because some things in life only give you the opportunity once there is no choice. Life is to be lived. Memories are to be made. The gym will be there tomorrow. And keeping this in the consciousness of my thought patterns will be what aids me in shedding the extra weight and keeping it away from me.
