Indecision and mini-rant

My internal dialog for at least the last hour...

I should go to the gym, but I'm feeling decidedly lazy today. I have already gone for a 50 minute walk to get lunch, but I usually do another 100-300 Cals more.

I workout everyday, so I could conceivably take a day of "rest." However, I decided I wanted to make lamb stew last night and it's deliciously high in calories. I've been spreading it across meals but I have one meal's worth left today and I'd like to eat it. So I kind have to earn it. I have just enough cals left to have a moderate amount of stew, but I will be itching to eat something else, I just know it.

I thought about doing a round of JM30ds, that would burn a respectable amount, but my shoulders hurt and so I can't do push ups and I have trouble doing some arm lifts. Elliptical would be the best choice for my body today.

I should stop rationalizing and go to the gym. Sigh.

Yeah I have entire conversations with myself about this type of thing - but I have to say it looks like you've come to a good conclusion

HAHHAA, I haven't decided yet! I only know I should... Thank you for the support though, that makes me feel more motivated to commit to a trip to the gym. :laugh:

If I spent as much time at the gym as I did thinking about going to the gym, or rather, convincing myself not to go there...I would probably already be at my goal weight.

Very true kick in the pants. Thanks for keeping it real. :drinker:
