01/14/09 - momentary loss of motivation

Alright, so I've been working out now for two weeks straight and today, I lost the motivation to go work out after work. Luckily, I have been going with a friend from work and we both keep each other motivated. Unfortunately, today, both of us were completely unmotivated for the work out ahead of us...
So, after work, we pushed ourselves to go and, MAN!, am I ever glad we went!!! [laughs] After being on the elliptical for 20 minutes, both of us felt soooo much better!
Anyway, another friend from work called me up and said her friends were throwing her a birthday party tonight with pizza, cake and a movie. My reaction to the pizza/cake thing................
Luckily, I had been marinating some beef tips in my fridge that really needed to be cooked. So, I "regretfully" declined the pizza and opted for the beef tips and brown rice. I think it was a smart decision. As for the cake....now that's another story. [laughs] I think I'll give in a little and have a small piece when I go over there but, I'll try to limit myself. I have been doing rather well at the whole discipline thing with food and exercise lately! I am proud of myself! :o)
Well...I'm off to the "party"! Maybe I'll take a picture and post it a little later...we shall see.
