11 OCT. 2012

Since I slept at 12:30 a.m. last night, I knew I'd have a hard time getting up today. More so since I had skipped the exercise yesterday and had decided to move it from evening to morning.

As expected when the alarm went off at 6:00 a.m., that very familiar old feeling of "not today, I'll go tomorrow" crept up on me and I hit the snooze button. But, wonder of wonders, 10 minutes later I was up and telling wanting to go for the walk. This has never happened before. I always had to coax / scold myself into going. Today was a refreshing change as much as a big surprise.

So I got up and went for the exercise. I had decided that I would not be over-ambitious. So I walked at an even pace and not too fast.

So here's the report card:
Walked 3.74 kms.

Breakfast 9:00 a.m.: 2-egg frittata with corn, coriander and mozzarella cheese
Lunch 1:15 p.m.: 2 chapatis, 1/2 bowl kulith usal, 1/4 bowl potato veg, 1/4 bowl assorted veg, 1 bowl clear soup
Tea 3:30 p.m.: 1 cup
Dinner 8:30 p.m.: 2 chapati, 1/2 bowl kulith usal

Slept at 12:00 midnight

Food was definitely better than yesterday but I must sleep on time. That goal is not being met.

I think (and hope) that something has radically changed inside me. I will no longer shirk exercise.

Looking forward to going for the walk tomorrow.
