Welcome to Gaia! ::

So hard to get a really solid workout routine together. It’s so yucky out all I feel like doing is loading under blankets. Also I just feel like eating a lot. Luckily I have just been eating my work meals or at home so it’s not like it’s “bad” or expensive, just a little extra sometimes. I kinda feel like a failure and I am afraid of getting fat. I’m just trying not to be too hard on myself but I feel like I’m just not doing enough but then I feel like I never have any time to relax. But then I relax like too much. Ugh. At least I’m lucky I have time and money and a job and an able body.

I’m really happy we found something to try that will be fun and motivating. It’ll also be nice to go to bed early. I don’t feel like I prioritize sleep enough.

Last night went to be at 9 got up at 5 and worked out! I think I’m really gonna like working out in the morning. So far it’s great. I used to get up early a lot a few years ago to do stuff but kinda just got out of the habit. I have to work at 7am today too ahhh so early

Working out at home. We have 5-30 lbs weights which pretty much covers all of our needs for now. I haven’t been to the gym in like a month probably eek I get sick of how crowded it is. Plus when it’s nice out I like to do my cardio (walking) outside anyways. Sometimes the energy though is good in the gym and is a nice change of pace. But yeah we are just committing to 30 minutes of pure strength training early in the morning at home every day and cardio walking/ddr after T gets off work and see how that goes. It felt really good today; and it also feels good to have a better planned bedtime!

That sounds really nice. I woke up early this mornning and thought about like doing a 20 or 30 minute ride on the peloton...maybe I should start doing that to wake myself up better. I liked when I was on the west coast and went to bed by 10 and was up at 5:00-5:30 honestly, but I've always been more of a night person than a morning person
