I've had a difficult week so far, and haven't been to the worked out once! Ok well I did do 20 push-ups today, but that isn't much to talk about. I got into a rather serious argument with my significant other on Monday night, and it was serious enough that I felt the need to literally feed my anger on Tuesday. I also decided not to the gym, even though I should have. Then yesterday, I decided not to go to the gym again, and today I did the same. Today I actually had a good reason, since I had to be home to call my sister about something very important pertaining to her wedding. However, I do realize that if I'd exercised at all earlier this week it would be no big deal that I missed one day. But here I am, on a Thursday night, feeling that I have accomplished nothing in the way of fitness this entire week! I had high hopes for this week, I was planning to move on to week 4 of the C25K plan, but after taking so many days off, there is no way I can do the 5 minute running intervals now! So I will have to continue the week 3 intervals until I'm ready to move on, and that's ok. I will get there eventually. The most important thing is not to give up...and lately it seems harder and harder not to, but I know I can persevere and accomplish my goals. I think I should start strength training more, since that's something I really enjoy, and it gives me the most noticeable results. I can do this! I will keep moving forward! I will not expect perfection from myself, but I WILL expect to always keep trying!
