I had a good week! I didn't work out every day, but I was okay with that - after my epiphany last week (thanks again to Kellee and Karen), I'm okay with doing what I need to do for me at that particular moment: if that means hopping on the elliptical, awesome; if that means taking it easy, that's cool, too. I'm feeling really zen right now. /dork
I'm getting back on track with my eating, too, although last week was a little dodgy because Aunt Flo was visiting. I think I'm having a (very minor) IBS flare? Nothing debilitating, though. My foam roller came yesterday, so I'll be giving that a roll (*snort*) tonight. I found out that local yoga studio offers a very basic beginner's class on Monday evenings about half an hour after I get home, so I'm hoping to catch a class or two while we still have extra cash before Chebbar starts school (1 month, 1 week, and 3 days! :D ).
Oh, and I weighed in on Friday: I'm down 1.1lbs. Not much, but I'll take it! And as my wise friend Bella pointed out, baby steps is how to get this done. :)
I'm heading into this week feeling busy with a lot of stuff on my plate, but I'm NOT worrying about when or how much exercise I'll be able to fit in: I'm content to know that I'll make the best choice in each moment.
I can almost FEEL the positive coming out of this post. It's awesome. Good for you! I'm way Happy for you and the new outlook you've adopted! <3
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. Way to go.
ReplyDeleteBaby steps is ABSOLUTELY the way to go. I know large, fast results FEEL good, but they aren't good for us. Hell, when my body switched back on and I dropped weight fast... I can show you what happens to your skin when that happens. :/ Be healthy, take your time, and feel good! <3
ReplyDeleteWhat a great post, will be interesting to hear the results of the foam roller. I loved yoga - should check into classes again. And I hear you on the AF thing, I was thinking this wasn't going to be a great week just yesterday (might have been that I was munching on a peanut butter cup at the same time...)
ReplyDeleteYou're so badass!
