I am the queen of "re-committing" when it comes to diet and exercise. I can look all the way back to law school where I would proclaim I was on this or that diet - that I was going to be at the gym 5 mornings a week or do yoga in my living room every night. Fast forward 14 years I am still doing this! Last monday I showed up at my gym after a weekend of junk food and little to no exercise - I proclaimed to my trainer "I am re-committing! No more junk - green smoothies every day and hitting the gym 6 times a week!" Becky turned and looked at me "enough of the recommitting! can you just commit and be done with it." Those words rung true with me but how do you make that happen? Make small reasonable goals? If you slip off your plan for a meal or a day jump right back on instead of jumping off for a week? I read that if you do something for 30 days in a row, it is a habit. Maybe you need to stick with something for 30 days and then it becomes easier? So, Becky, I am not re-committing to healthy eating, exercise, blogging and doing other creative things - I am just committed!
