Trouble getting scheduled :o(
11

I am having some organizational stress.  I am trying to coordinate my new healthy habits:  30-40 min a day exercise/yoga/ROM, a 30 min nap/siesta (at least the next 4 weeks), proper nutritional cooking.  And my school/homework (eventually work) schedule.  The way things look at this time, my studies are going to require that I allow about the same time someone working full-time would allow.  Unfortunately it is not in one big chunk of time each day. 


How do you do it?  Or how would you suggest I do this?  ANY thoughts would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Can you break up your 30 min into 2

Hey, n2 - I hear you on scheduling conflicts...it's so hard sometimes!!
I would suggest breaking the exercise into 10 or 15 minute increments - it's more manageable that way.
I will be praying your schedule works out!!

While I cook or warm up things for dinner, or do my laundry I do mini walks, jog in place, etc.

I think my first struggle is to get a new mindset.

Love your new siggy n2,
OK .. good for you on really thinking about this as it is so important.
I would suggest a few things ..
One is to commit to this thread here ..
http://messageboards.ivillage.com/n/mb/message.asp?webtag=iv-bhivhfitness&msg=31779.1&ctx=0


Now then yes healthy eating is quite important.
That will come in time.
You said you came up with an extra 3 hours .. is that right ?
If that is the case that yes you can do this

I saw Aileen suggested you break up your exercise,
Love that idea .. is that something that would work for you ?
Keep thinking as I know you'll get it all to work out :)
