This might not seem like such a big 'victory' for some but I read on here recently that you should never rely on motivation, just discipline to do it. No thinking involved, because motivation wavers, but if you're disciplined, it'll get done. I've been really trying to work on that this week.
Every day before work I've gotten up at 7 so I can be out the door with my dogs by 7:30 to squeeze in a 30 minute walk. I like this routine for them so they can learn to do their business outside/on grass instead of inside on the hardwood. But I LOVE it for me because it helps me wake up on my own terms (groggy as hell outside, but I'm moving), get some fresh air, and log some steps before I even get to work. Already accomplishing something that early makes me feel good. I've also noticed that I feel better throughout the day, less tired, and get more done. Then again I'm pretty much wiped by 8pm, but going to sleep early makes it easy to get up and do it again tomorrow.
I may have only dropped .5 lbs this week so far, but I'm training & disciplining myself to make exercise a greater priority, and that is a good enough goal as anything.
