Reflecting on Missing the Mark

As a recap I went to the gym to exercise 7/6,7/7 - 7/10,7/11,7/12,7/13 - 7/17,7/18,7/19. I did not exercise 7/20-7/27(today). Basically I missed exercise 7/20, and Also this week I did not exercise. 
Why didn't I make it to the gym recently? I think the housework and laundry got the best of me. I didn't have gym clothes clean. I have been in a rut and just haven't felt like doing much around the house. I had the objective to write about the fly lady program 7/16 (Sunday). I looked at my notes, and felt overwhelmed. The flaylady talks about not jumping into the whole program all at once, but slowly picking in habits slowly.  I was over thinking it, and trying to do too plan on doing too much at once. So I need to regroup and figure out how I can do things better. I could try to follow the 30 day habit building that the flylady teaches, the program that lets you tackle one objective per day. But I just am so behind on dishes and laundry and other household chores. I think when I would get home I just want to go into relax mode, and couldn't get the motivation back to do house work. Another thing is my energy levels, I think I need to get back to taking my b vitamins and methyl-folate. They seem to give me more energy. 
I've just been feeling overall down. I feel like I have gained so much weight, and not having the laundry done and wearing old clothes, just made me feel bad. I am starting to buy some new clothing items, so hopefully I can replace some of the skirts I have been wearing for almost 10 years, which really aren't the right size anymore. 

I need to have a game plan in place for when *I just don't feel like doing (insert whatever here)*. I do meet with my counselor next Tuesday, so we can discuss my wins and losses and how to continue on a positive goal reaching path. 

Over and out, Keep on being Determined 2b Determined to Find Excitement in the Mundane.
