Days 20, 21

I've been exercising, but not as much as I want to. The snow is off the sidewalks again, and this should be the last of it for the time the project will last. I've been doing some dancing to recorded music, and airdyne exercise bicycling. Tomorrow I intend to walk outdoors, probably two miles of it.

Now I want to work on shifting my regular bed time to an earlier hour because I think that will help me fit my intended exercise into my daylight hours better, and also make my mealtimes more regular. It's surprisingly difficult for me to make that shift. I thought it would be easy, but it hasn't been.

Maybe part of why people have difficulty getting fit is that there are a lot of pieces to the project that they don't realize are a part of it, like regular meals, regular bedtime, and other items, even things like clutter in their home or in their TV viewing or online browsing could be getting in the way of their fitness producing actions.

I agree with you about how all the pieces add up to more than what you expect. Two months ago I decided this was it! No way was I heading for shorts weather with flabby legs that weren't toned and batwing arms. But somehow I got off track and I think it's because of all the different pieces.

One thing I'm working on is putting myself first, that makes it a little easier to change my lifestyle to healthier habits that will help me reach my goal.
