I just finished watching Oprah. I actually recorded it because it was a show about looking 20 years younger. They basically were saying that there were four elements: nutrition, exercise, skin care, and sleep. The show wasn’t bad but I was really disappointed in the message. Oprah’s fitness coach/friend wrote a book about looking 20 years younger in 60 days. I was so annoyed by the whole 60-day fix. Oprah even asked him if someone should wait to do this program or do what he or she can. This guy actually said a person should wait until they could fully commit. I thought that was such bullshit. If I waited until I knew I could fully commit, I certainly wouldn’t be 25 pounds lighter. It is so much easier to justify not eating healthy or not exercising because of being too busy. Hell sometimes I think losing weight takes too much time with the preparing, shopping, cooking, and exercising. Ugh what a terrible answer. I appreciate that there are people like him in the world but he doesn’t understand the drive behind why someone over eats. Maybe he meant that the 60-day challenge would give you enough momentum to create new and better habits. I’m in a pissy mood.
My anger tonight is also because I skipped the gym and I’m disappointed in myself. I’ve only exercised twice this week and they weren’t that vigorous. I’m nervous to go running with my partner tomorrow. What If I don’t have any motivation? I feel really moody since I haven’t had a great eating day and I didn’t go work out.
Tomorrow is another day and I will do better with my eating and I will go running. Try and try again, right?
RIGHT! Running will make you feel better tomorrow, promise. I always get into a mega funk when I don't excercise. As for the show, I'm with you, that's total bullshit, who ever dives into anything life changing not having some reservations or fear?? Fuck that. You and I, were are making changes, we are getting real with our issues, and we will get to our goals, slowly, but once we are there, we will stay there forever, because we gave ourselves the time and patience needed to crack the code. Love you T!! Hope you have a beautiful day tomorrow!!!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteExactly what Gallant says! Tomorrow will be grand. We all have (and will have) those weeks. I've not done nearly what I set out to do this week. We'll just keep on trying & success is also in trying. Let's do this!
ReplyDeleteHere here! What these girls said! Your running partner will get you out there and then once you're running you'll feel so much better!!! You have had a very successful winter and spring. This is just one day or one week. Whatever the case, tomorrow is a do over. Yay! xoxo
