Fell off the wagon a little...

First, I'd like to apologize for not posting in almost three weeks now...I have been quite the slacker.

It's very hard to stick to a precise workout regimen when you start to make excuses for yourself. I recently had a good friend over this past weekend, and in doing so took the liberty of treating myself to a few "indulgences" that I normally would pass over for healthier choices (large steak & cheese sub, breaded boneless buffalo wings, soda, etc). I also dropped down to three days of working out last week from my typical six-day schedule. This, I have decided, must stop today!

It is dangerously easy to let yourself fall back into your old ways and habits. My best advice to anyone (and to myself) is this...the earlier in the day you can get yourself to exercise, the better! If you can get it out of the way early, you will be more likely to stick to your routine, and less likely to talk yourself out of it.

Food for thought.

Moving on up...

Good Morning! Yes, I have been very bad about posting consistently every weekend...I promise to get back on track from now on. :-)

This week I have stepped up my workout by adding another 5 lbs to my current dumbbell sets (20 lbs each now). My muscles have been whining that they have not been properly challenged in about three weeks now. Hopefully they will be sated for a while now.

Anyways...back to my bowl of Cheerios and fresh strawberries.

Have a great day!
