Welcome to Gaia! ::

My obstacle:

I'm too lazy, I will decide to do something, it will come time to do it, unless I'm really worked up to do it, I will sit back, delibrately keep my eye off the clock and relax saying I will do it tomorrow.

Tomorrow comes and the process begins again sweatdrop

This is what I'm really working on to improve so that I can get as fit and as toned as I was 4 years ago. Then I could almost run 6km, now, I can't even run one which is pretty pathetic stare

I get lazy and distracted. I stay up to late at night and wake up early in the morning. I have low energy all too often.

Ugh way to depressed.....

Laziness, procrastination (I think it would fall into the "laziness" category, but I'm listing it anyway), I'm self-conscious about my weight (I cannot exercise in public. I can do so by disguising it as something else (like riding my bike), but I'm too afraid of being laughed at to just run around the neighborhood (I know no one will laugh, or even think anything mean spirited, but I'm so jaded by the bullying from elementary and middle school that I just can't)), and an unhealthy diet.

I need help D:

I was and still am like that. A few things that I have found have helped:
- Use an iPod/MP3 player
- Jog on a back track/road where it's not so busy
- Jog at a time of day where there aren't many people around

But also a word of caution. ALWAYS carry ID and your mobile with you. I don't want to scare you, but these are actually the no-no's of running alone:
- iPod/MP3: can't hear anyone or anything around you
- Back track/road: less people around, safer in busy areas
- Time of day: same as above
- ID: if anything does happen, you're ID will identify who you are
- Mobile: call someone if you are i trouble/hurt

When I'm at home (parents), I actually run on the bush track with my iPod and usually in the evening. I know I shouldn't, but those situations suit me. But I always have my ID and mobile with me, plus let someone at home know roughly how long I will be.

But with all this risk, I do find that it greatly reduces the embarressment. I was that embarressed one day while running down the street that whenever I saw anyone, I actually pretended like I was looking for my dog.
