I don't wish to give up, but I am tired.

Right now, I am in a period of a lack of motivation.  Giving up on exercise seems so easy now.  However, I am frustrated and I won't do it.  What is the use of buying equipment if I don't have the motivation to do so? I just don't feel like it today, but I won't complain.  I just have to go out there and just do it, right?  I guess that is the only way I can stay healthy and lose weight.  Why am I like this?  How could allow myself to lack the motivation that I so need?  The last time I exercised was Monday.  Despite my health risks, I have to go our there and just do it.  I have gone too far to turn back.

Reflection:
I am thinking about formulating my own plan.  I have yet to follow a plan of my very own.  It has been a while since, never. I have decided that I may need to go outside the box.  Lately I have been walking and while it has been beneficial in that my mind is clearer, I may have to exercise more.  In fact, I do have to exercise more.  I did however create a way to get out of the rut of exercise and a lack thereof.  I have made the decision to exercise daily, maybe five to six days per week.  I really don't know what to do.  However, here is the getting out of the box when it comes to exercise.  I have just noticed that I have to make changes with this particular plan.  It isn't the most realistic plan for now.  I may walk one day for 15+ minutes.  On another day, I will do strength training for 10-20 minutes.  Then on one day, I rest my muscles, which would cause me a cause for alarm since I deal with anxiety on a daily basis.

Reflection:
I did not exercise today.  The last thing I should do or say is procrastinate.  There was no excuse for me not to exercise except I wasn't feeling well.  I realize that that could be a good enough reason not to exercise. However, I have noticed that even with exercise, I feel better.  I won't take this with a grain of salt.
