This Week for Mishka

Okay, things have been pretty hectic this week. I haven't been eating too much because I have barely been finding time to eat, but the exercising has been neglected. I am going to try for a walk today and then we'll see how it goes from there...things will be slowing down in the next day or so and I can get back on the program full force.

Mishka's Committment

Even though it is a holiday, I am starting a new program. I am desparate to lose some weight and get fit in a short amount of time (if I feel some results right away, it helps to keep my motivated), so I am committing to working out everyday (even twice a day if I can swing it in my schedule).

I am going through the fridge and tossing any crap that is left over from Halloween and anything else that looks like it would cause me to divert. Mostly I need to get the chocolate out of my house that is left over from Halloween...I know it is there and I keep talking myself into eating it.

I have been walking and riding my bike lately and doing tons of lunges but I haven't seen the inside of the gym in a while and I think I am due. Today it is raining and cooler (for here) so if I do get a walk in, it will be a wet one but I am thinking the gym is a for sure at some point today. I don't have anything else on my agenda but wrapping some Christmas presents, and cleaning house so it should be no problem.
