yes x 3 - (bodyweight exercise set)
Lunch at parents today. Mothers birthday.
Did enjoy today. Don't catch up with family often enough.
My thought for the day:
Motivation follows action (not the other way around). If you wait till you "feel like it" to start, you often never start.
I was introduced to this as "emotion follows motion".
Put a tight time limit (like 5-10 minutes) on a small task you have been putting off and feel would be hard or tedious. If the time expires and you do not feel like continuing, stop. If it was a big task, break it down into a first step that would take 10 mins or less.
More often than not, once to start the task, you "get into it" and motivation turns up to help you continue or even complete the task.
This could be something simple like cleaning your desk/bathroom/etc.. , going for a walk/run/doing exercise, practicing an instrument, reading a book, writing a letter or even reading/posting on an MFP forum.

Sundays are so hard for me. I fasted in the morning but then ate way too much the rest of the day. Stayed within calories but didn’t make great choices. Glad tomorrow is Monday! Start over.0 -
