Since the beginning of my journey I have been able to incorporate my workouts into my everyday life and have managed to make it work with no problems. However, recently my husband has been getting home from work later and later which means the kids stay home alone while I work out. They go with me from time to time but not always and so that guilt kicks in as I walk out the door and think to myself if it truly is worth leaving them. The answer to that question is a big NO! it is not worth leaving them to go and workout because that means I am not balancing my time but rather compromising quality time with my kids in order to work out. This is quite the dilemma wouldn’t you say? Well the old me would take this one and run with it as the perfect excuse to give up. Oh yeah I can just hear myself saying how my time with my kids is more important and so I can no longer workout because of that.
However, the new me, the one with the skinny state of mind knows that there will always be a “valid” excuse as to why I cannot exercise and it is up to me to work around that “valid” excuse. Therefore, I will begin a new workout regimen which will mean that I will have to start working out during lunch and early in the morning so that my time with the kids is not compromised.
I have to do some work and develop a schedule and be consistent so that I can remain on track.
So the moral of the story is……..there will always be obstacles but once your mind is made up you will always find a way to get through them.
Now get to it!!! :)
