exercise regularly, exercise often

After I got back from Peru I had dropped about 13 pounds! I was never overweight but the difference I felt in my energy level was amazing. My weight went back up for a little while, but I am getting close to being that weight again. I have been exercising at least 3 days a week for a couple months now (minus a week long bout of food poisoning!) and it’s amazing how energized I feel. I’m able to wake up earlier and be more alert during the day. When I exercise I find myself eating better too which is great too. Of course the weight is great, but honestly feeling this good is worth it. I won’t consider this goal met until I maintain it for at least a year but I am on my way!

I went to a class at the gym today so I worked out for an hour. I always love it once I get to the gym but it’s the deciding to go that gets me. It’s not the hard work that makes me not want to go. I guess it’s just the “there are so many other things i should be doing instead of going to the gym”. How do you stay motivated to actually go?
