The exercise I do now is a mammoth change for me because I never did any exercise ever.
I got tired of feeling like Dracula. I wanted to see some daylight, and not just at six o’clock in the morning.
When I started writing full time I had not long stopped being a teacher and when at last I had a full day to write, I would put music on and wonder to myself - am I allowed to do this? Then I thought: 'I am control of this and no one is telling me what I can do.'
I found it tough to follow an athlete's lifestyle. But soon, it became a part of my life, and I embraced it.
The highest of highs is to have a new routine that you're just breaking in and that's working, and that's - you're one step removed doing a situation comedy because you have a live audience there.
You get so used to going to MetLife and then going right to the Giant locker room and now you go left to the Jet locker room and that's a little weird - not anymore, but it was at first.
Rather, to change a habit, you must keep the old cue, and deliver the old reward, but insert a new routine.
Start going to bed earlier! It is a tough adjustment when you have had a summer of staying up late and waking up late.
Twenty-eight days is what is takes to break a habit and to implement a new set of habits.
For a girl like me, I understand because working out can get really boring. Doing the same exact routine every day gets old, and you need something new and fresh to inspire you.
I'd have to say the biggest transformation would be my schedule. I'm really, really busy, but it's a lot of fun.
