Week 6

I was sick on Sunday, and couldn't return home until Tuesday... so I couldn't work out during the weekend.
My friend got a job, and he doesn't come back home until 9pm. He told me that it would be hard for us to work out together. Since I left all my things at his house, I plan to bring everything back tomorrow at 9pm.
I'll start working out by myself from now on, and I will keep the 2 mile thing.
I plan to work out on Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday night. I don't know why, but I'm starting to get really lazy with everything. I think its the whole "transfer-itis" thing...

Hope I return to my whole happy-go-lucky and enthusiastic personality soon.
ah... I'm so tired

Anyway... I personally think that the operant conditioning thing is working, but I don't think it works too well because I'm the one doing it on myself.
I read this one blog post like thing http://bigcatnews.blogspot.com/2008/11/operant-conditioning-on-humans.html
and it was quite amusing... I guess this will work better if I didn't know about it... but since I'm doing this for myself, I am able to think in a different term and find another way around it.

  1. Hey Iuri!
    I know it's hard to try and keep up with everything and I feel you on the starting to get lazy thing because I felt exactly like that about two weeks ago, but I think once you focus yourself more and get back on track it will get better. Don't stress yourself over it because it will only get worst, but don't worry you seem like a strong girl and I know you can do it! I also figured out that since everybody else is busy and has different schedules it's hard to find a buddy to work out with on your own time and we just have to do it on our own. But just start off slowly and just think of it as if you do it, you'll feel better and healthier and maybe get back into your happy enthusiastic mood and feel more energetic. I wish you the best of luck on next week I know you can do it!

  2. I so agree with your idea of operant conditioning. When you know what it is, you find ways around it. you cant help it though, it's within us to find a more pleasurable solution to obstacles. You really shouldnt stress out about the whole transfer thing. But I really do wish you the best with everything! I hope all the ones you really want to get into accept you and throw money your way! you deserve it! Hopefully you can find the will power to work out on your own. But just take everything one step at a time, you dont wanna burn out to the point you cant even move! lol but Good luck on everything and know there is only a couple more weeks left and you can sort of relax!

  3. I agree with your opinion on operant conditioning. Since we have to issue our own rewards and punishments, it is totally subject to change. Good luck working out on Saturday nights because I love kicking back on my Saturday nights. Stay strong!
