It turns out to be a fairly big deal with my mental health & my thinking capacity if I go 5 hours without eating. Oy.

I also did get to the gym to do a little weightlifting (but it's been a month since I did that) so kept it brief and focused on the muscles supporting my surgery knee ( or both my knees, really)... good to get back to it. Knee has been twinging pretty good the last week or so.

I have checked in at the gym at least once a week since October 1, but that's not even enough to maintain the fitness improvement I developed while the physical therapy was underway. if it weren't for the Monday night dance class, I'd be losing ground even quicker...

need to go twice a week at least to gain fitness.

any suggestions wrt incentives?

I agree with [livejournal.com profile] angelkatharine, a buddy system is good motivation.

This is part of making it time you *want* to give. Meeting a friend makes it special. For me, I also found that going to the gym for a great class and joining the gym closer to work so I could go burn off the day right away (and have a great reason to leave on time) worked really well too.

I look forward to being able to join the gym again.
