Did you ever see that movie, Seven Days in Utopia? The first time that I watched it, I left the movie thinking the mental game was all about golfing. Well I just watched it again with my teen and I was left wondering if the mental game can be applied to my game of life. I'm on a healthier lifestyle journey! How about you?
So that is my journey...it is starting out as a mental game that I am having with myself. I know that I weigh more than I have ever weighed and I don't like it. I don't like feeling yucky and I am thinking it has to do with what I'm eating, what I'm not eating and that I just don't get any exercise.
So I have a mental game plan. Go to the gym and walk. I'm going to walk and walk and play a game. The walk will give me time to figure out my next move. I can alter my eating and loose a few pounds. I've done it many times. The weigh comes back and brings some of its friends. So I heard that many people have literally walked off their weight. I'm going to try it.
I don't like walking outside. The weather is temperamental. I want to walk in a controlled environment so I'm paying for a gym membership. We only have to pay one month at a time. So the first month I'm going to commitment to going at least 3 days a week and walk the track. It is the cheap $15 rate. If I do it for the first month then I will splurge on the full membership which will allow me to use the treadmill which I really want to get on.
I'll let you know how it goes. This is my journey. My mental game that only I can take. I have to do it the way I want it or it won't work.
How about you? What kind of journey are you on?
This is wonderful and so happy for you! It seems to take constant motivation but, so worth it! I really love that you are posting and sharing....perhaps I'll get brave and post as well ;D Do you have music? I bought a cute little shuffle and buy fun music, just for working out! It's awesome!
