I dont work out on Tuesdays...

I am in love with my workout routine. As I said before my goal is to go everyday if possible but if i make it there every other day I'm happy too.  There is one rule I have though. I don't work out on Tuesdays. Even God took a break. I, however, don't wait until Sunday to take it. Although, it sounds ridiculous to take a day off on the second day of the week, I have a perfectly legitimate reason: TV.

I love TV. I live for TV. Tuesday is an extra special TV day because I watch Biggest Loser. lol. It sounds lame but its a day where I don't have a regularly scheduled workout and I can just sit back and relax. lol. It gives me that extra flow of inspiration. Even if normal people don't lose 100 lbs in 9 weeks.

To add to the enjoyment of the day, me and my hubby went out for sushi to celebrate our 2nd wedding anniversary. For everybody out there who thinks I might be a hypocrite because I'm writing a blog about exercising and dieting I'm sorry. Life is not about perfection. Life is not about staying cooped up in your house with a celery stick for the rest of your life. The reality of the situation is that in the real world people eat out. On a weight loss journey every day is a learning experience.  I guess what I love most about the path I'm taking is that I'm learning self acceptance.

Some days, and I'm being totally, openly, honest, I will pig out on a burger or some pizza or have a soda. Afterwards, I want to hate myself and for a moment I allow myself to hate me.  But at the end of the day losing weight is about accepting yourself.  Not necessarily saying "OK I'm gonna be fat forever so I'll get used to it" but saying "hey I'm human I'm gonna mess up every now and then." I do mess up and I'm not always dedicated but I will never take the easy way out. I'm going to keep fighting this battle until the day I die and I'm OK with that.

Just gotta keep believing in me...and hopefully you all will do the same. And like I tell my lovely friend Erika...even when no one else believes in you I WILL...Happy Workouts to all!!
