Made it to the gym four times this week, though I have to admit it wasn’t without some strong self talking to, especially on Sunday, when I just really did not want to drag myself out of the house. I’m always glad once I’m there, though—dig out the iPod and watch an episode of White Collar while I work up a sweat. It’s actually a pretty good way to spend some time. (Though every time I’m there I think I really wish I’d get a spectacular bonus so I could try to justify spending cash on an iPad and have a bigger screen for watching!) The visits helped me meet my step goal for the first time in a while, even exceeded it by a couple of thousand. Got to try to make that a habit.
But, the downside is that I didn’t drop any weight, even with my gym diligence. However, I have lost an inch from my hips and almost that much from from my stomach, so there is some progress. I’m hanging on to that.
