Too Harsh, or Justifiable?
So this morning i didnt go to the gym. I slept right through my alarms. I woke up a little before 8 and i immediately knew i couldnt go. I had this bad burning feeling in the pit of my stomach. Kinda like the bad feeling you get when you’ve done something bad or wrong. I felt like absolute crap. I’d been doing so well and all of a sudden i missed a work out. My question is, is that me over reacting, being too hard on myself, or is it justifiable. I’ve been thinking about it all day. I keep thinking that i should go to the gym tonight. They dont close until 10, but my husband wants me to wake him up in 15 minutes, and then i have to cook him dinner. I feel like i really need to go to the gym though..I duino, I just have this feeling that is telling me to go. *shrugs* i dont know if i am just being stupid and too harsh or what. But i do know that i did not go to the gym on Sunday, so now that i havent gone today, if i dont go this evening, i will only be able to go 5 days this week. Does this sound like im doing too much? In a way it does, but in a way it doesnt. Ive been almost religious about working out and eating right and trying to transform myself, but i guess i am feeling like if i do not go, then it will become easier and easier to not go. *shrugs* i duno…

Dont be so hard on yourself. Life throws you little curveballs now and then. Probably not the last time it will happen. 5 days a week is still very good. Go back to the gym tomorrow refreshed and motivated. No harm or loss in missing that 1 day.

Baby the fact you’re worried is not a bad thing, at least you know you will not get into a habbit of ‘oh I’ll just miss this one…then the next and so on’ - that ain’t you is it?! At the same time tho, 5 times a week is enough - I know how hard you are working to fit in all these gym sessions AND work hard in your job too
Maybe you need to review your weekly program just to make sure you’re getting enough rest. Rest will play a big part in your transformation quest, sounds to me like your body was telling you something…..!
