If anyone is having trouble remembering what their goal was, here are some threads where people posted what they were going to do:
Thread 1 Thread 2 Thread 3 I had the really vague, non-defined goal of improving my fitness level. I have taken care of a health issue that has allowed me to do that. Not only has it improved generally, but, with the rotation I'm on now, I'm starting to see the results of my body tightening up and the scale starting to move again.

My resolution was to start losing weight (30lbs) but like you, motivation and commitment were severely lacking - instead I GAINED 10 lbs! ugh!
Well I figured that was about rock bottom for me so two weeks ago I got mad enough to finally implement dietary changes and get in at least 3-4 workouts a week. So here's to a more successful second half

I can't remember if I made a resolution. I do know I keep saying I'll do an Ellen rotation, or start to do more intense and longer workouts. I do periodically get them in but not as often as I'd like. I need to make a goal of maybe 3 longer workouts/week beyond my usual CS/Qi Gong/walking routine.
I don't need to lose weight...I could stand to work on my abs. I know that's all about the kitchen, though. Jackie |

Mmmm, not doing so well with either workout consistency or food choices.
On the plus side, just this past week I fell deeply in love with Yin Yoga from the Ultimate Yogi series and am investigating yin classes in my neighborhood. I can't start classes until August, when I'm done with my planned summer travel, but it's nice to have a new fitness interest which might help with my consistency.

Oh, you know, another thing I've done well on this year is basic self care.
I've done a lot of learning about things like qi gong, massage (foam rollers and rubber ball), and just releasing tension. For me, a workout that's full of really good stretches? A perfectly good use of my workout time, because I've found that I'll carry the memory of that relaxation/release/movement with me through the day, and just loosen up. One thing that seems to be true for me so far? I'm more comfortable in my own skin. I'd fallen into a rut of tension and obliviousness, losing touch with a lot of the tension and stress I'd been carrying around, not moving freely or easily, but not really noticing. The extra awareness has really been beneficial in helping me keep moving. Small steps, perhaps, but moving. |
