I made a pack with myself to ditch my lame excuses for not working out, not eating right, not turning the water off, leaving the lights on, etc..... and I plan on keeping it. I just need to think of a way to reward myself every time I don't give in to my excuses. Maybe just knowing I am doing things to better myself and the world I live in will be enough. If that's not enough, I know where the chocolate bowl is!
Here here. As the ad says, just do it! The hardest part is getting started. Once you do it, you do really get into it and it becomes habit. Now I am really liking going to the gym and taking my spin classes. Just getting my gear out of closet and getting my butt to the gym really was the hardest part.
