Staying on track

I haven't posted in a few weeks, but I have been good most of the time.

Thanksgiving week was a bit hectic trying to get to the gym and eat right, but it wasn't a total disaster.

In the past 3 1/2 weeks I have been to the gym at least 2 times a week, and I have been trying to get is some walking on the side when the weather is cooperating. I have also been having "Gym Dates" with my friend Mike once a week. It is nice to go with someone for a change.

My biggest challenge during the next three weeks will be my new work schedule. The mall is staying open later and later (not closing until 10 or 11pm) so getting to the gym (1/2 hour+ away from work) will be all but impossible on the days I close (3/4 of my shifts lately.) Any one who knows me will know that getting up early and going before work is NOT an option for me, I am not a morning person. I will do a lot more walking to make up for my lack of gym time.

My Birthday is next week and the best gift I can give to myself will be a continued exercise regimen and better eating habits !!
