Today I made deliberate choices to do good. I took advantage of the beautiful weather and the nice campus next to my work to take a walk break. I made better food choices bringing me under my calorie goal for the day (started using My Daily Plate again). And when I was wrong about the gym schedule, I didn't let the gym being closed give me an excuse to wimp out.
My arch was a little too twingy last night so I decided to avoid too much impact and give my body a chance to heal itself. I also wore my tennis shoes to work rather than risk injury just for fashion's sake. If only I could find some dress shoe/running shoe hybrid that would give me the comfort, support, and speed, but while looking good enough to meet society's expectations of women's business professional.
I have to say that blogging contributed to my workout tonight. I was motivated to make sure I worked out, just so I could start a post with my improved weight. And I knew that I couldn't just post a walk or I would have only myself to blame if the number went back up tomorrow. Getting my coworkers involved, publicizing my results, and working towards a clearly defined goal are all making this road a little easier to follow.
