We Just Don't Have the Time!

About not posting yesterday... I just ran out of time! Days are beginning to get packed with activities or necessities. Either or, I did work out yesterday and I even added some more weights to each workout. I'm hoping that tomorrow I will feel like doing the same. Yesterday I stayed over from work and had planned on running when I got home, but I was of course very tired and decided it could wait.

Same thing today. I needed to help my friend move some stuff out of a room and to his parent's place and got home late this morning. Again, I did not run. However, this time I was slightly more active lifting heavy objects so I felt like I got some sort of a workout.

I'm beginning to not meet my calorie goals again (only off by 100-300 calories) and I don't know how much this is really affecting my weight loss. I know that I'll still continue to lose weight, but I just don't know if the fat is being used up or my muscle mass. I think the stresses of recent activities is also starting to catch up with me. My mind has been somewhere else starting my days and it does not help get me motivated to work out.

When will we come out with the Staples "easy button" for working out? Even though I enjoy doing it I would like to speed things up a notch so I can enjoy the rest of my day. Until then...
