I've become almost too lazy to even type that word, let alone this blog post. I'm having some serious issues with motivation lately. I'm having an intervention on MYSELF.
Output: Haven't slipped on athletic clothes in almost a month now. After work, I prefer stretchy pants I can wear under my jammies that have fruit on them. Acceptable substitute: stretchy jean shorts with a huge T-shirt. (I counted at least 4 places I can judge me in this category.)
Intake: Lately, major food groups are baked goods, buffalo wing sauce, and takeout/eating out. Sub-category = alcohol. This is the only area in which I have put forth any effort.
Bathroom scale: Holds open the bathroom door, occasionally I stub a toe on it, but have not stepped on it.
TV: Watching a lot of it. Too much to admit here.
Thinking: Can't bring myself to think outside of work. (Thus, the lack of posting here, among other areas).
The intervention started in earnest yesterday. AFTER I watched movies all day, ate my weight in Chinese takeout, and didn't shower until 8 p.m. Luckily, Tim and I are in this together and we started with a trip to Wal-Mart (jgfdhgfstufs) for groceries and a new bike (for Tim).
We bought lots of fresh produce, lean meat, and grains. Did NOT buy replacements for any baking ingredients to avoid late-night temptation. Lunch today was a healthy salad, and after work, we're hitting the trails -- which is awesome because I don't think I've even LOOKED at my bike in a year. I look forward to moving and having more energy.
On other fronts -- I still have lots of plans on the calendar between having the in-laws in town (now!), my new nephew coming (maybe tomorrow!), a camping/kayaking trip (that I won't talk myself out of), and more. August is going to fly by, I can feel it.
Especially (since I'm no longer lazy) if I start up my boards on Pinterest -- holy time waster, Batman! Check it out, if you haven't already....
