Fresh Air
Blisters are the Devils work. I h ave just been walking for an hour and a half, like I said - the Devil’s work…
Today is not an ‘exercise day’, per sae. I go to the gym on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Other days are recovery days. Normally I need them but for some strange reason today I woke up feeling like I need/want a workout. I refrained though, because I know that if I went and worked out an additional day I would regret it the next day. I did that once before; I got into gym exercise to the point where I was going every day and spending almost 2 hours there. The result was I got very ill for a long time, could not go to the gym and the weightloss turned into weightgain. But I had to pick my son up from school (he normally gets a lift) and it’s a thirty minute walk there and hour walk back so I walked there with a friend and it seemed like nothing so we walked back too!
Calorie deficit! Calorie deficit!
It is my weigh in day tomorrow and I cannot wait! Or weight! LOL.
I have to say today marks my third week of dieting, or day 21, and I am feeling so much healthier. Three weeks ago I couldn’t have done this walk I have done today, and three weeks ago I could not have contemplated eating anything like as healthy as I do now. I am starting to sleep better than I have in years and I have more energy. This really is a ‘if I can get through today then I have succeeded’ kind of attitude. Many day’s I have wondered if I can get through the day without binging and then I manage it and the next day think if I did it yesterday I can do it today.
Bring on tomorrow, I say.
