6-3-2010 Progress?

It's been exactly one month since my last post. Unfortunately no real progress made. I've allowed myself to become complacent in my daily eating habits and my regular workouts. No real crisis or reasons, just lazy I guess & sometimes gone mad.

I've been off for a week now and just started my workouts today for this week, which is unusual starting out on a Thursday,

however, I've decided to alter my schedule to change the stagnation of daily drivel which sometimes plagues my life.

Yesterday I played 9 holes of golf with my father so that's some exercise. I walked/jogged 2.25 miles today with 1.1 miles of it being a continuous jog. When I jog this coming Saturday I will push for a 1.2 mile continuous jog. My new goal is to complete a 3 mile circuit with 2 miles of it jogging and working to reduce my time to complete the circuit. I think too I will add some bicycling to my routine to add another dimension of fitness. There's a couple really intense hills nearby that I may start working on walking up to add more intensity & drive to my workouts. Will keep this blog updated on my progress.

My parting thoughts is I wish I could inspire my wife to join me to workout too. Although she's gained considerable weight since we first dated almost 30 years ago, I still love her. I worry much because she's following the same path her father has gone down health-wise & physically. Her blood pressure is an issue. If she does anything physical, she struggles to keep her breath. The biggest health concern is she continually struggles to be healthy as she is regularly sick. I would think if she lost about 25-50lbs, she'd feel much better physically & psychologically. I need much prayer on how to inspire or help my wife to change for her well being. Maybe guilt ;)
