Staying on track when life happens!

I have been doing so well! I was doing so well! I will continue to do well! At least, that is the plan; although it seems like life has other options. I completed six days in a row at the gym two weeks ago and 4 days at the gym last week with a total of 5 days working out last week. My boyfriend and I went to the pool and spent a good 2-3 hours there so that counts as a workout day too even though it was not done at the gym. Also on Thursday I worked out at the gym and went with my boyfriend and his brother and did about 9 holes of Frisbee golf in about an hour and a half until the kids got disinterested and I took them to the park to play.

I had family come into town, and I love them, but I hate that it throws off my routine. That is just how life goes right? It's not my family's fault that I stopped tracking my food because we were so busy, or that I missed my Saturday workout to attend a family party and spend time with them all day. That is really no excuse to not track what I was eating, and that is certainly not the reason that I chose not to work out on Sunday when I had the chance to since my Mother had left to return home. It just seems like there is one tiny speed bump in the road and it ends up spiralling into a huge black hole and it is so hard to pull myself out of. Although the silver lining in this whole experience was that I did go to water aerobics on Monday. I had planned on going to the gym today in the afternoon while my boyfriend went to play Frisbee golf, unfortunately that did not happen that way. I don't want to beat myself up about it, but I have decided that if I don't plan to go to the gym in the morning, then that allows life to happen.

One thing though that has changed is that I really missed the gym today and that is definitely not me!! Or at least, that wasn't me, I guess that is me now. I am the big girl who experiences gym withdrawals! Hi, my name is Krystyn and I am an addict. I am newly addicted to going to the gym and the endorphin rush that follows a great workout! Yay! Go me! Weigh in day is tomorrow morning and so is water aerobics and I can not wait!
