Staying Motivated for the Long Haul

I am still in the zone. Motivation to do much of anything is lacking on nearly all levels. Stuff happens. That commercial that states, "it takes energy to make energy". This must only work if one has energy to begin with. I have done everything healthy with diet and nothing is helping for now. There are times I do not want to try and succumb. Blame it on the weather.

@parus I am having similar struggles right now myself. I am sure ir would help if we were not having these miserably low temperatures, I think if I could get out to my club to do some pool exercises it would help. I planned to do that today but they closed at noon so I didn’t make it. Recovering from Legionairre’s doesn’t help either, it leaves a person very fatigued for a couple of months. Today I have been light headed all day for some reason too, I would not drive feeling like this.
I think if I can make some small steps in the right direction it will lead to bigger steps so I am trying hard to force myself.

@parus, I 'hear' zone views! My husband has me going to the gym pretty regularly, but there are days when I just don't want to do it. Here is something I recently found about fitting in small bits of activity in your day. I don't know about you, but I always count it as a success if I intentionally make a point of doing one of these things on 'one of those days'! And that makes me feel better:-)
