Have a Plan

Even if you don't follow it, you should always have a plan. It keeps you grounded, focused and able to live without wondering what to do next. Yesterday I had a plan --- mostly house related chores --- and man it felt good when I actually followed it, and got things done... It makes me want to do it again, and again....

This week will be a little crazy. I have a trip coming up Thursday and I need to have everyone including myself taken care of. Of course, I also need to exercise so that I don't breakdown in the process. Today I am finishing an outside chore that involves moving several hundred pounds of rocks. Whether that is my official exercise for the day remains to be seen. Tomorrow I am spinning, and Wednesday I will do intervals. Thursday - Monday I will be GONE and honestly I don't plan on anything but spontinaity... I will bring my running shoes just in case the urge strikes. I will weigh in Thursday morning before I get on the plane. I want the motivation for weight loss to continue, and even though I'll be with good friends, good food and good wine, I will do my best to be mindful of my choices. I don't want to have to start over when I come home.
