More rewards....


i have always been an instant gratification kinda girl...if i want something i usually just buy it....i am very hard to buy for the holidays because there really isn't anything that i want/need.....well it turns out there is finally something that i really want and need and i am making myself earn it before i get it....i decided to set up an exercise reward.....if i exercise 4 weeks in a row at least 3 times a week for a minimum of 30 minutes each time i can get an IPOD nano on march 9th.....i figured if i am getting an IPOD nano to use while i walk/exercise, i better make sure that i am walking/exercising....i feel awesome....each week i have met my goal and then some, walking about 5 times each week for the last 3 weeks.....i have been talking 40-45 minutes "lunches" to walk along the intracoastal across the bridge in Palm Beach....there is a nice lake path with no car traffic....it is nice to be outside but not have to hear the cars and smell the exhaust....i really enjoy my walks and i can't believe i am half way done each time i get to the place i usually turn around at....the time just flies....i am looking forward to having the IPOD to help keep me moving and give me some "entertainment" while i walk.....i have not been this committed to exercise in i don't know how long....i'm looking forward to my reward.....I wonder what i should set up for the next exercise reward or if just having the IPOD will keep me going anyway...i'll think on that one for a bit....
