Week 1 Back On The Workout Plan: Semi-Success

by Peter · 3 comments

This past week was my first week back to working out,  and it was a week of ups and downs.  I worked out 4 out of 7 days, and my eating was decent except on the weekend.

I started the week out really well, working out the first 3 days of the week (Mon-Wed) .  I got in a good run on Monday, some upper body weights on Tuesday and another good run on Wednesday.

On Thursday my new computer arrived from Dell, and I got distracted.  I didn’t exercise again until Saturday!  i was entranced with our fast new computer.  I took the nights for several days in a row to get it set up, transfer files from the old computer, and get things going.   I took my eye off the ball.

My eating this week was so-so.  The beginning of the week was pretty good.  Then my healthy groceries ran out.  I kept putting off going to the grocery store, and as a result I ate out most of the days last week. Not good for my diet – or for my checkbook!

This week, I’m getting back on the plan.  My computer is now setup, so I don’t have that excuse.  We’ll see how it goes! Wish me luck!  (I’m off to workout now!)

it’s amazing how consuming a new computer can be! Good news tonight though – i pulled myself away long enough to get in a good lower body weight workout!

LOL. It’s so true, I do the same thing.

I’m such a tech nerd, so when I get a new gadget, start a new site, join a new forum, etc I tend to be glued. However I’m much more disciplined than I used to be!
