Boot Camp Looming: Excited But Not Ready
I'm going to begin my day by being honest. I haven't been exercising, and I'm getting lazier by the day. I'm still careful about the eating—but exercise. . . . Here's the thing: The March 8 date to begin the boot camp I signed up for is looming. And I'm not ready. I've been doing a little walking here and there, but that's it. And by a little walking, I mean like around a grocery store. I have no miles to add to my dailymile tracker. I feel terrible.
Even though the boot camp is going to be hard, I'm looking forward to it. I'm hoping new rounds will run all summer and into the fall. I need something to kick my ass. I need a kick start. I don't like exercising by myself. I like group exercise. I like classes. But I'm also a morning exerciser. So this boot camp should be the thing I need to get me going.
What I Can Control
I figured out that I can't control everything in my life, but I can control my eating and exercise. If all else fails, I can control how I deal with emotional eating. I can confront the eating and ask myself why I'm eating when I'm not hungry. I can find out what it is I'm really hungry for.
I've just got to get a little more wind before this thing starts, and I'm in the middle of it.
