It's a CHOICE - Do whatcha gonna do...

Did my third workout tonight and my body can feel it.  Even after two workouts I felt the difference.  When I woke up this morning, I felt so light as I sprang out of bed.  During tonight's workout my muscles felt sore and tired.  My throat was tired, my head was tired, my eyes were tired, and even my lungs were tired.  But I reminded myself that worst part of a workout routine is the beginning stages; and the worst part of quitting during the beginning stages is you have to enter those beginning stages again some day in the future!  Nobody likes that!  lol  I think the people who quit after a week or month, are the same people who say they hate exercise.  Heck!  I would hate exercise too if my entire knowledge of working out involved repeated beginning stages!  Give your body a chance to crave the exercises you may hate now.

A friend at work told me that she doesn't exercise NOT because of not having enough time in the day, but because she was too tired!  I thought, "Wow!  This may be the real dilemma most of us face!"  Maybe it's not a time issue after all, but a fatigue issue.  It's medically proven that (in general terms) the more fit a person is, the more energy they will also have.  Another point is that our body's heart has to work much harder for every pound of fat it possesses.  All that said, TIME may be nothing more than a convenient excuse, where FATIGUE is the real culprit!

When the dust settles, it is a question of CHOICE.  Do what you choose to do, not what someone else tells you or tries to guilt you into doing.  I won't judge.  I've been there.  Nobody should judge for that matter.  We all have our weaknesses and strengths.  If your choices are true to your ideals, you should have nothing to regret.

But hey!  This is a weight loss blog, so time for me to get some sleep before tomorrow's workout!

God Bless!
