I can do anything for 2 hours!

Today my trainer is finally back! :D He texted me this morning and told me to be prepared for a kick-ass cardio night. At first I was scared but then I realized I so need it and I can do anythign for 2 housr! :lol: I have been so lazy without him. My original plan back in April was: to get a trainer, use him through the summer, get in the habit of it, join a gym and keep up the workouts on my own by the Fall. Him being away taught me I am so not ready for that! I need him to keep me going and motivated. Not only do I get a better workout with him, I also workout more without him. I mean if I see him twice during the week I am more likely to work out more the other days. So now I am going to try out a new plan. I am going to set my alarm for 6:30 and get up and walk/jog 3 miles every morning before work. I am hoping that this gets me exercising everyday. I also hope that it tires me out and gets me to go to bed earlier so that I don't stay up and eat!!! There is a method to my madness! :rolleyes: I am writing it here so I am somewhat accountable. I will start tomorrow!

 

On another note: I've been doing really well with food. I have really watched my protein intake and made sure I am taking my vitamins. I wasn't doing too well with those lately! :o I still am plagued with the night eating but I'm getting better and trying to make better choices. I also need to make sure there are plenty of healthy snack choices available.

 

I am having trouble getting my water in. I am so not a water drinker. This weekend we ran out of crystal light (decaf iced tea), I wasn't in the mood for water so I drank a half gallon of orange juice over the course of the weekend. So ridiculous. I've always been a big soda/sweets drinker so that has always been my downfall. I could easily drink a 12 pack of soda a day in my before lb days. Any of you have any tips for getting your water in?

 

I will post tomorrow how my workout tonight and tomorrow morning goes! Wish me luck!

I like that you have a plan. Writing things down and execution of what you've written down makes you feel like a million bucks.

Try brushing your teeth right after your dinner or whatever time you want to stop eating or set an alarm clock to ring at that time. A little extra reminder couldn't hurt.
