Main Quest - Defeat my Laziness Boss

I did very well getting off the couch and I want to build even more on my previous challenges! I want to slowly build a better daily routine and a few of my previous challenges have helped me do that. For example, getting to bed by 11pm, never missing a Monday workout, and getting off the couch.

Looks good to me, Jonesy.  Best of luck to you this challenge!   I've been neglecting the sleep and I'm paying for it. Need to get back on track.

Thank you! My sleep patterns are all over the place so I felt like it would be good to add it into the challenge.

 

Hey Jonesy!

 

Good to see you! xx

 

Thank you! I wish I could be more active but i'm just not online as much, especially now that I'm using an old phone that can't get on the internet. It's pretty painful, Lol.

So this week didn't start off the way I had planned but on Sunday I knew the week was not going to go the way I wanted. I didn't do my best but did a decent job keep on track for goals.  

 

Goal 1 - C

 

I didn't get all 3 workout days but I did go for a walk on Monday and did my video on another. I was so sore the next 2 days and slept through my morning alarm clocks and missed my other days. Disappointed but this next week will be better. I'm not going to attempt to try to play catch up this week because that has only made things worse in the past. 

 

Goal 2 - A

 

Did a great job getting to bed by 11pm this week and didn't need to try to find things to do once I got home, just did it. As for a routine, I'm still working on a healthier morning and evening routine. Currently it's shower, brush teeth fall into bed then hit snooze a million times, wake up with only 10 mins to get dressed take dog out and leave.  

 

Goal 3 - A-

 

Only had 1 day where I had 2 coffees, the rest only in the morning when I woke up. Soda was a lot harder this week because I had some at the house and when I was thirsty I wanted that and not water. Only went 1 day over so I count that as a victory.

This week has been a struggle. I've been out of it physically and emotionally and can't get into the right mindset. I'm not finding the time to get in workouts or waking up early enough to do one. I am doing some walking but not the workouts I said I would do. I'm struggling with not drinking coffee but doing an OK avoiding the temptation. I've planned out a nightly routine but need to get down the timing of it all. Just an exhausting week so far.

What happened with the routines?  How are you holding up?  I never try to put myself into a 'beast mode' workouts. I feel obligated and then frustrated and resentful. It never works out for me. As long as I've got my meals planned ahead, I'm eating right and that's the majority of the battle right there.
