It’s About Time

AAAHHH!!!  It’s only January 2nd and I am already finding excuses for not exercising!  Last night my DH said he wanted to get up at 6 this morning and exercise before our kids woke up and I told him I would do it with him.  So, during one of my toss and turn episodes during the night I find him awake and playing Wii.  So, when I woke up this morning at 5:45, I figured he needed his sleep and I decided not to wake him up and I went back to sleep.  Then, I overslept and had to hurry to get my son ready for school.  I am trying to motivate myself to fit in some exercise before bedtime tonight, but unfortunately, I have already come up with an excuse.  My Excuse: Last night I slept horribly and I have been suffering from a sore neck for a few days.  Hopefully, my hubby will suggest that we exercise tonight and that will motivate me enough to do it.  I’ll let ya know what happens.  The following quote really struck a chord with me because I feel like in my current body, I am not completely ME.  I am hoping that through my weight loss journey, I can find myself again.  My misery comes from the fact that I know what I could become, but that person is hiding and is afraid to show herself.  I guess it is time for me to start peeling back the layers of that mask for her.  (Yes I am talking about myself in 3rd person and no, I am not crazy.) LOL
