I am so bad at being consistent with something. I go full-force and do great for a while... and then I slowly taper off.
That's what I'm focusing on this week - being consistent.
If I say I'm doing to do a workout routine, I need to stick with it. For me, even skipping just one day gives me an excuse to skip the next day. I'm tired of being that way!
I'm working out with the trainer at our gym here at work on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, but it's just not enough. It's easy for me to slack on the in-between days and then talk myself out of working out.
I'm committing to add in at least 2 days of exercise at home. I figure, start small and go bigger - eventually I want to be exercising every day in some shape or fashion.
I've found that I really enjoy TurboFire (which I talked about here, remember?) and P90x, so I'm going to try to switch those up and do TurboFire one day and P90x another day.
I need some accountability. I'm not sure quite how to get it. I asked my mom to keep me accountable, but it's easy to blow her off, haha. You think I'd realize that technically I'm keeping myself accountable, because if I'm working out every single day, it's going to show. I guess that one just won't sink in.
Any thoughts or suggestions on how to keep accountable?

Callie, what time do you get up in the AM? Do you plan to work out then or in the afternoon? I, too, am struggling with consistency... we could figure something out together! I have some ideas...
If I'm working out at home, I wake up at 4:30 to get started. I have to do it before work - I'll never do it if I leave it until the afternoon!
Hmmm... I was going to suggest a phone call or text or FB check-in... I don't get up until 5:10 or so, though... 4:30 would kill me!
