Sitting here with a new laptop, it's a loaner, and it's small. You know, a little white Apple Macbook. Cute, but my fingers are lost on here and I am squinting to see....But it's giving me a "new feel"....I just came in from the bike in the 20 degree garage...It was 17 this morning in Atlanta....
I got up and made the choice to bike because I am going to the movies this morning with my teen. I'm excited to be invited with her. Guess what movie???? Yep, Twilight. I read the first 2 and a half books.
I made the choice to ride now and then eat, so I go to the movie having to protect my choices of healthiness.
Something happens when I invest with exercise, I tend to protect the work.
Each of us is wired and geared differently and as I've read we don't all respond to the same things. I'm not a bootcamp kinda girl, but I probably will have exercised before bootcamp kicks off....I repsond to personal challenge not external challenge. Exercise is an investment for me, and I respond to it.
Know yourself and put yourself in the best possible scenerios.
The holidays are going to put many of us in scenerios that we might not do well in. Take time this weekend to visualize what you will be facing and shop accordingly. In past I've eaten in the car on the way to people's homes. I've brought legal foods, I've gotten up and exercised right after over eating. I've gone out of my way to sit at the far end of things or even in another room. I've carried a trusty water bottle and drank constantly from it. All of these were EFFORTS ABOVE AND BEYOND. But I was able to stay legal for 2 yrs that way. Slipping only a rare occasionally.
Know yourself before setting foot out of your controlled atmosphere and create an atmosphere you can carry with you....

It is completely worth it.
