Well, I did make an attempt to go to the gym today, but unfortunately the wifey again threw me a curve ball. She stated that she wanted to go with me, then changed her mind after scheduling a couple of errands in the evening. I did have the opportunity to go earlier in the day, but since she said she wanted to go, I waited. Then of course after, there is a change in plan and didn't end up going. So today is now labelled as a "rest day", instead of tomorrow.
I have come to one solution that has worked before and definitely will work again (not 100%, but at least it will be best effort). I need to go by myself. In my first 3 months, I always went to the gym alone and was very successful with not missing a day. As soon as I offered other people to come with me, I changed my schedule to suit theirs and then I'm noticing that they are bailing out- making it difficult for me to schedule it in with the time left. Going forward, I will no longer 'wait' for someone else. If they want to join me in the gym, then they will have to schedule around my schedule - not the other way around. No more mr. nice guy... Looking back 6 months ago, I was in the same state. I would go with wifey or with a friend and as soon as they bail on me, my whole schedule gets screwed and I don't end up going. That sux. No more missing workouts...no more workout buddies - period.
