There's always an excuse not to go to the gym.

We all have those moments when we don't want to go to the gym.  I had a big one this morning.  My 16 month old was up 4 times last night.  When you're tired and didn't get a good night sleep, it makes staying motivated to go to the gym that much harder.  My saving grace is being a creature of habit.  I have a routine and part of that is going to spin class of Sunday mornings.  I get there at 8 and spin by myself for 30min.  Class starts are 8:30 and runs 60min.  I really enjoy spinning.  It is low impact and gives me a break from my usual cardio workout.  I haven't lost any weight since last week, but I'm not too worried about it.  This week means extra protein on cardio/leg days.  It should be one more step in the right direction.  Week3, here we go.
