Brawny writes a letter to himself....

Dear Brawnster,

What's up fatso? I see you sitting there in your recliner. It's Saturday morning and you want to be lazy. You had a decent weigh in last week and a little voice in your head is saying..."just chill, take another day off exercise...that will only be two days skipped".
Well tell that little voice to shut up and drag your ass out of that recliner and onto that bike mister.
Affectionately
Brawny
 
I did Jen,
40 minutes on bike
10.13 miles!
I may have to comb through my old posts and see when the last time I could do 10 miles was.
I read it takes 21 days of doing something to form a habit.
Today is day 20 on plan for me.
Just sayin
 
Well done Brawny. I feel like I have kicked myself back into gear too. It's way too easy to get lazy again & so much better for your general well-being to get active again.
 
That is so true Cate. It is so easy to slide right back into bad habits. It kind of makes me mad to be re-losing weight that I have lost and gained and lost and gained. But at least I am on plan again.
Ate about 1750 calories today which is fine with all my activity and my long bike session this morning. Life is slowly getting better.
Focusing on two things......
1st-get below 300 ( it shouldn't be very long)
2nd- get a little distance away from 300 so that one or two bad days don't put me back over that nasty threshold.
 
Thanks for noticing my mini accomplishment.
Good day Sat
Not so good Sunday...Just ate a little too much. Trying to get back on track today
Mondays suck
 
Eating a little too much on a Sunday is ok I think. Eating WAY too much on any day is not.
You are getting into the groove brawny. Don't be hard on yourself. You'll get there!
 
Well it's real.
Here I sit. It is 6;20 a.m. and it's time to drag my tail onto that bike and get this Tuesday going.....uugghh...here I go...nothing glamorous about this...but I am determined
 
Rode 8.14 miles in 31 minutes.
As usual I felt much better after I exercised than I did before. You would think that would make it easier to begin each session wouldn't you?
I think I can, I think I can...
 
I say the same thing almost every time I walk. I only dread it about a quarter of the time but I always feel better after 100% of the time. Weird how our brains forget that so quickly.
 
Same here. Whether it´s hiking, biking, lifting or even visiting friends: I don´t want to do it, even though I know I´ll enjoy it.
 
He enters wearing his old coaching attire:

All right I gotta get my game face on! My weigh in is in 2 days and I need to be intense to see some movement of that scale. I have been barely acceptable this week so far. I have eaten a bit too much and exercised one less day than I should have. I gotta snap myself back into laser beam focus! Let's think about this I am just a tiny bit from double digit loss and a bit more from going below 300! That's worth fighting for. Now it's time to ride that bike and launch into another day. Ain't nothin but a thang!

He blows his whistle and exits
