I know that you have to do things consistently for a few weeks in order for it to become a habit but I am just ready for it to kick in already. This back and forth with me has got to stop. Is it two weeks before it becomes second nature? Right now I do not love working out (at one point I did relish going to the gym and actually enjoyed lifting weights. Cardio, on the other hand is something that I probably will never enjoy and unfortunately its what I need the most being as heavy as I am.)
How do I get to the point of at least not minding cardio? I know I'll never be a lover, but can I at least get to the point where its "Eh, I must do it and I don't mind doing it." I was up at 3:a.m. this morning ( who knows why), went back to sleep and woke back up at 5:15 am. I thought about getting dressed and going to the track to walk for an hour but of course, I talked myself out of it and ended up laying back down.
Now, one thing that I do know about myself is that I'm a morning person. If I don't get it done in the morning, then 9 times out of 10, it won't get done. So..I am currently bent over and I welcome any and all kicks to my butt to get me in gear!
Udpate: Thank you so much Nicole for you words of encouragement. Your comment got me to thinking. I realized that If I want to see the results, I need to put in the work. I have been singing this same, sad weight loss song for the past 10 years and guess what? The weight hasn't magically disappeared. I am in worse shape now than I was initially when I realized that I needed to lose weight and have been steadily increasing in weight year by year. I have got to stop it with these excuses. I know I'm long winded but I said all of that to say this: I did It! I completed p90x leg and back today!. Yes, my legs are like limp noodles but I finished.
One more thing. I have been subbing the pull ups with different free weight exercises. I have bands but I don't think they are effective enough. I saw a few pull-up bars (the kind that don't need to be mounted with screws) in Wal-Mart but I really don't think that the moldings in my doorway will hold up. I can't do a pull-up anyway but I really want that bar!
Getting it right,
