I think I can...

I have exercised more this week than I can remember exercising in one week in a loooong time. Today I overcame another obstacle. We are expecting a massive snow storm, so I had to go to the grocery store and tutor. I planned that I could get that all done and get to a gym class by 6:30, well of course the grocery store took longer than anticipated so I was late for tutoring which meant I didn't make the gym class. In fact due to traffic it took me 45 minutes to go 7 miles to get to the gym. I really wanted to turn around and just go home. Instead I drove in traffic went to the gym and spent 22 minutes on the treadmill, 20 minutes doing leg weights and a very tough 5 minutes on the elliptical. It was a different brand elliptical than yesterday and I didn't think I could make it 5 minutes on level 1!!! This is how I remember ellipticals. I promised myself I would do 5 minutes and I did it. Maybe next time I will do the elliptical before the leg weights.

I am going to have to work out at home with videos until the snow subsides (and they plow us out). I am also very worried about my eating habits being at home for so many days in a row. It will be rough, but I can make good choices. This week exercising is my first priority, next week it will be integrating counting points and attending WW meetings with exercising. I think I can, I think I can, I think I can, I think I can...
