SBF, Reboot Boogaloo, July 11th

Livi_Loves_Pink

Yesterday was good and productive. But exhausting. At least my apartment is starting to feel like mine again, instead of the ruins of some kind of natural disaster.

I'm hoping for another productive day, but uhg, I'm tired.


Trying my best, boogaloo.

Yesterday was another sort of goal fail for me, exercise wise. I managed to get the work done, some housework done, my food goals and water goals accomplished, but only managed a very short walk. For an unknown reason, my fatigue levels have crept back up. I can predict that my body is unpredictable.

Today is: more work, walking, arms and back after my first work session (really, I mean it) and water/real food. That seems like enough.

Work, move, work, boogaloo.:flowerforyou:

Hope everyone got enough sleep last night. I could use another night of good sleep to completely be myself.

Today: bike ride to the store and yoga this evening. I was going to take the day off yoga because I'm still sore from Friday (tons of push up backbends), but Charlie wants to practice this evening.

Enjoyed Harry Potter 7 yesterday which was followed by Indian food (an enormous dosa) and gelato. Nom.

Better get moving before it gets too hot, boogaloo.

Yesterday was a good day in meeting my "movement is medicine" goal. I managed to get what felt at the time like a super light weights workout (although I feel it today a bit, so it was not as light as I thought) and a long walk. Today, I go back to Zumba, despite nerves because of the incident last week. It should be the regular, beloved teacher today. I think it's been well over a month since I've gotten to take her class, so I'm excited as well as nervy.

Other than that, I'm doing laundry (how do two people produce so much?) and writing, eating real food (which I also managed to do yesterday, despite severe ice cream cravings) and drinking plenty of water.

Hey, Mary, I vote restorative practice.

Better choices, boogaloo.:flowerforyou:

I am celebrating the small victory that today I "hit the wall" and felt serious "oh my gosh, I don't think I can go on" fatigue at the 45 minute mark in Zumba (it's been happening at 30 minutes). I've been concentrating on remembering to get good, deep breaths in during my cardio, which seems to be helping with the fatigue during exercise. Oxygen is important.:laugh:

Also, the studio owner said that she had a talk with the sub about all the hollering. She didn't like it either. I said that I wasn't mad but I just wasn't "meeting her there". I felt good about how I communicated, and most of the other Zumba ladies agreed that It wasn't what they wanted, either.

Also, I just ate the BEST raspberries (they're in season now here). That is all.

Good job on pushing through V.

A quick post from me for a change. I am not doing so great on eating and not so great on exercise either. I didn't work out yesterday because we went to look at houses. Eating isn't working out because it's hot for the 6 week in a row and I don't like to cook when it's hot. I'm a baby. I should have bought sandwich stuff instead.
Steve gave me the money to go buy some really cute shoes at Target. Here's the link http://www.amazon.com/Miss-Trish-Daisy-Wedge-Sandals/dp/B004BFREH2/ref=sr_1_6?s=shoes&ie=UTF8&qid=1310928987&sr=1-6
He said they are so me and I need to get them. My sister also sent me a late birthday gift card to Kohl's and last week we got a Kohl's gift card for $10, and they have a lot on sale right now. So I am going shopping! I wish I had a friend to go with. Looks like I will go alone. Kind of nice to go alone but I feel insecure because I haven't been out by myself in forever! So I am going out in a bit to get my shoes and shop probably for an out fit to go with it.
I hope it's not depressing to me because I am really struggling with my weight. I tried to put my jeans on this morning and wow. That was an eye opener. I need to get this under control. I'm having a really hard time saying no to things I don't need. I may have to get severe with myself soon. Some thing has to change. I can't keep doing what I'm doing.

Blank boogaloo.

So I'll admit that yesterday wasn't as productive as I'd intended, since I spent most of the day talking with a friend. :ohwell: But it was relaxing and I felt rested today. Been busy most of the day, and exercised even though it's usually a rest day since I skipped it last night.

I'm going out for a movie tonight with hubby, and my goal is to get the apartment tidy and not use going out as an excuse to let it slide. It really won't be that hard if I make myself take the time. I'll thank myself for it tomorrow. :bigsmile:

Oh, and I'm almost back at my ticker weight! (I gained a few pounds when I visited family.) It'll be nice to start seeing new progress again.


MM- Those shoes are SO cute!

V- Great job with Zumba!


Stay on task, boogaloo.
