Did 3 miles this morning!
Today was kind of an awakening, not for myself, but for Lisa. Lately she's been really down about her weight. She's been walking 3 miles with me for the past month now. She checked her weight a few days back and she'd only lost a pound. She depressed about that. I told her that she needs to do more. In fact, I've been telling her that for a while now. The thing with Lees is that she is really lazy! She'll only do something if I'm doing it. She will not do anything on her own. I have been trying to get her to pick back up on DDP yoga for weeks now, but she just won't get back into it. Anyway, we had a long talk this morning and I told her everything I could. She finally said that she'll do it for me. I told her just to keep it up. The thing with Lisa is that she may be struggling with her weight but let me tell you, that girl can run. She can outrun anyone! You wouldn't think it by looking at her, but she can run really great! She can run two miles nonstop. Freakin crap I can't even do that and I've been exercising since last April. She has so much potential to be a great runner and she's better than I am at DDP yoga, mainly because she's done it longer than I have. I just barely started in March. She's been doing it off and on the last 3 years. But she just quit. The thing with her is she wants it all right now. She doesn't want to have to put in the work. She'll workout really good for about a month, then she'll quit. She just gets lazy, then she gets angry, then she won't do anything anymore. That is her problem. I get so aggravated with her attitude towards herself sometimes. Anyway, that's what I did today. I talked with her and I hope I got her out of the funk she was in.
I did some of a Bowflex workout. I was really distracted because while I was doing it, Lisa called H&R Block because she had some concerns on her tax refund. Apparently, she may not be getting that refund like she had wanted/expected. We're thinking that they're going to take that left over tax refund and apply it to her state taxes, which she is behind on :'( Oh man, that really brought us down, especially her. She was so happy when she surprised me last night with the news she was getting money back. She wanted to buy me things and was so excited. Now this shit comes up today and that really blew us both out of the sky. I was too depressed, so I didn't finish my morning workout. I just changed, then we hung out in the living room and watched some movies while she did some studying for her classes. Very big downer there :(
Finished my gallon of water today!
Did my DDP yoga workout tonight, followed by my 40 crunches, cross leglifts, elevated leg swings, pushups and finally my dumbbell workout! I feel great and I'm happy I did the work today. The days seem to be getting better and my focus is coming back. Tomorrow, I'm back at it again ;}
