Dear Not Focused Yet

I completely understand how easy it is to avoid exercise. I have spent the last year telling myself that I'm too busy or I only have enough time to do 30 minutes...blah, blah, blah. To be honest, I realized I had a choice to make: either continue making excuses for the rest of my life, or stop bit**ing and start moving. I opted for the exercise, and I'm so glad I did. I haven't changed my diet much but with just an hour of exercise each morning, I have lost 7 pounds. If you need a source of motivation, provide yourself with a "gift" for reaching your goal or even reaching the halfway mark. For me, it is my upcoming Spring Break trip that makes me want to look fit in my swimsuit!
One more note, it's easier to focus when you've established a routine...when can you fit in some exercise? Try to make it the same time each day, or each "exercise" day. Good Luck!
