Renewing January goal

It's hard to eat a healthy diet when what is available to eat varies so much each day.  In the last two weeks I haven't had to go to bed hungry because we had no food.  I've never had to do that before.  It is a humbling experience to not have enough money to eat.  If we weren't supporting six people on two people's disability checks then we wouldn't be out of food.  That's another story though.

My problem is I can't plan what I'll have to eat tomorrow and certainly not a few days down the line.  We have to eat cheap lately.  I've been requesting fruit instead of junk food, which isn't cheap, but right now we are swinging it.

I'm having problems doing the exercise bike because of the pain.  Every night I swear to myself I'll do it tomorrow and then every day I can't bring myself to work through the pain.  I do feel as if I'm a bit of a failure.  The food part isn't my fault, and I'm quite proud of some of the food choices I've made lately.  I know I should do 5 minutes on the bike two times a week but I haven't.

So here is a renewal of my January goals:

I will do the bike 5 minutes two times a week.


I will start tomorrow.  Tonight is too late and in the evenings and at night my body is in way too much pain to exercise.  By nighttime I'm usually sore to my own touch.

So, here's to a goal renewal!
