SBF2 Reboot Boogaloo, Sept 6th

yoginimary

School was a little boring. I guess I knew it would be. The number of people that had done yoga less than a year was a bit amazing. I feel like this is a hoop I have to jump through - urgh. Oh, and I didn't get any exercise yesterday - bah! - the studio had people in both classrooms, so there's no point in getting there early.

So today, I'm getting a walk in this afternoon - dang it!

Driving, boogaloo.

Quick post.

I am worn out. I am still thinking about my pillow, and how it would be feeling against my face right now. We got the brakes done on our friend's truck, but not without trouble. Mistakes on my part which cost us a lot of time. But I only do brakes once a year or so. I don't get a lot of practice. We were out there ALL day! In the heat. I think between Steve and I we drank like ten or more Gatorades. Surely I burned some cals. We're both sore and tired. So I don't know if I will get to making the perogies today or not. :frown: We'll see if I have time or energy. I am working in the nursery this morning at church, so I might need a nap. :laugh: If I feel alright I will try to walk on the treadmill and get some crunches in.

Diapers and toys boogaloo!

Morning pebbs...

Totally didn't check in yesterday...busy roaming around town all day. No formal exercise, but plenty of walking. Bad food choices, but followed my "eat half of what they bring you in the restaurant". Had a coconut macaroon with my coffee at a meeting. No less than four women hassled me because I didn't eat all of it. Variations of "take it home with you!" "Eat some more!", etc. I said "It's important for me to be in control of my own food choices. Thanks." It was an articulation milestone, and everybody shut right up. The truth is, it tasted great for about two bites, then it just seemed like more sticky trouble than it was worth. I just didn't want to eat anymore, so I didn't.

Mary, I think my current struggle with getting to workouts is that I don't have a routine. I can't wait to figure out a routine and then settle in to it. August was a weird month of vacations, intermittently bad eating, and cancelled classes due to holidays and hives. It's almost like I'm afraid to settle into any kind of routine and then have it just be disrupted when I (it's starting to feel like "if I") get my fall schedule in place. Fear of losing a routine = no routine. And, no routine = no workouts. Lame. Now that I've identified the problem, I'm just pushing myself to keep moving, and do something six days a week, and not worry too much about having a regimen just at present.

Mummsy, you've inspired me to remember my water, so thanks for that.

Anyways, just got finished with Zumba (at least Sunday can't get messed with). :drinker:

Just keep moving, boogaloo.:flowerforyou:

Good job on your eating choices and standing up for yourself V! :smooched:

Update: I'm worn out. I feel the need to do something but my eyes are saying SLEEP. So I don't know what I am going to do. On the bright side I put on my jeans this morning and I didn't have to suck in to get them buttoned! :laugh: For a second I thought maybe I had worn them for a couple of hours, stretched them out, and then hung them back up, but I didn't. What really got me is that I nearly hit myself in the face while putting them on! I was pulling on the zipper thinking I'd have to pull hard like I usually do. When the zipper went up easier, my hand slipped and came flying up at my face. :laugh: It was kind of funny. Then at church two people said, "You're losing weight!" Uh, I am? The scale jumped up to 160 the other day, so it's certainly not going down number wise. I think it was the shirt, but hey I'll take what I can get! Something I am throwing around in my mind is this: what if I have been gaining weight because I have been depressed (whether I changed my eating habits or not), and now that things are moving forward again with the adoption and I am getting more excited, what if I start losing weight again? What does that mean? How can I keep the weight gain from happening when I suffer a loss or feel depressed? If I'm not changing my eating why does emotion make a difference? Does that make sense?
That's what I am thinking about.
Oh and my goals for next week: try to walk or do taebo every day, and drink lots of water. Other than that I will just be trying to get everything done. Bible Study starts back up again so I have homework to do.
Miss Chatty boogaloo!
