Still not doing much in the way of exercise.  Always have great intentions while I'm at work, then get home and live takes over.  I know it's just an excuse and I'm full of them.

I think I've finally found out what I'm missing.  The motivation to do better than the status quo.  I really need to shop for healthier food options and can't recall the last time I did that.  Don't have big hopes for the weigh in next week.  Exercise is still a chore, one I don't do often enough.

Hasn't been a great couple of weeks for me.  No real stress or anything, just a bunch of excuses.  Tomorrow will be a better day!

I was looking for more support, so I checked out a few Facebook pages and groups online.  Didn't get too far.  One group just wasn't a good fit.  Not seeing too much activity from the others.  I've been exercising more regularly.  I am feeling better now that I'm exercising, but cutting the grass today kicked my butt.  I had to rest for over an hour afterwards.  Still need to go to the Y for my free membership.  To be honest, I'm very self conscious about exercising in front of others.  I know everyone is in same boat as me, looking to lose weight or get or stay healthy, but that's not helping.
