I surprised myself yesterday and ended up going to the gym. I got back from dinner around 8:15 and started flipping through the channels. Somehow I landed on Biggest Loser and I became increasingly more uncomfortable as I watched. I still had energy and felt a sneaking suspicion that I had overeaten (totally confirmed, by the way, by my realization that I had overeaten my day’s points and all of my weekly flexes). So, I decided to go to the gym!
It wasn’t the most inspired workout. I probably spent nearly an hour on the cardio machines, but would only count 20 minutes towards my goal. My exertion levels were low for a lot of the time and I didn’t feel like I was working out at a moderate intensity. However, that isn’t the point. I know that if I had stayed home I would’ve scooped out some ice cream and warmed up a muffin for an unneeded dessert. Every little bit counts.
So, my goal for today is to continue to journal and to workout. I am feeling good about doing it and think I can maintain. I think it will be a struggle to stay within my point limits yesterday, but going to the gym last night might’ve kept me from derailing. One day of splurges doesn’t have to turn into three.
