Exercise Final Update

We hit another dump along the road this week - my neighbour hurt her back so she has been out of action since new year eve.  You will see that as soon as I was no longer accountable to someone else that the exercise drops off!  When we have a commitment to someone else then we tend to honour that commitment, as soon as that commitment is to ourselves we have 101 excuses why we can't follow through!!  As soon as my neighbour was unable to exercise I found myself making excuses on why I could not do the full routine ie:  tired, housework, too hot etc..... 
I am still pleased with what we accomplished over the past week - I am back at work on Monday so I will back to my normal routine!

  1. Good on you for recognising that you need that committment to keep you motivated! I must admit i'm a bit like that with walking during my lunch breaks, I prefer to go to the gym on my own but walking is too boring when done alone! Be proud of what you accomplished Jody, that's still a pretty impressive list.
