Weird NSV to feel happy about!

I just completed an hour of intense yardwork raking and hoeing weeds. As sweat was pouring off my face (more than at the gym!) I thought, Wow, I would've fallen over and died if I tried this a year ago. Not only does my yard look great, I still have energy. I used to get winded tying my shoelaces. So weird to feel happy about chores, but there you go!

    Great NSV hun,
    keep on track and you'll be able to complete all chores and have energy for other "duties" too. :bigsmile: Keep enjoying the little things in life and everything will seem great.

    I like it when my hair is wet with sweat & it drips in my eyes. NEVER said that before in all my life, never imagined I would. I blame Jillian LOL

    That is so awesome!

    I remember the first time I realized the benefit of my workouts. My wife and I were hiking in Yosemite. We were going uphill and she says, "Stop, I'm too winded to go on without a rest!" I felt fine. I was breathing heavy, but it was normal considering the climb we were making. Made me realize that my workouts were helping (my wife does not workout at all).

    Awesome!!! Feel free to come do mine:-) It needs it, but I'm usually too busy working or playing to worry about it. It's still technically winter in CO, so I've got another month that I can slack.

    Awesome feeling for you though! Congratulations :-)

    Those are the best NSV's! I had one like that this year when I went sledding with my family! I wasn't thinking, "is this over yet?" the whole time! I actually had fun and wanted to stay out there!

    Not weird at ALL! Congrats! I remember when I got winded just walking a few stairs! It's so nice to know I'm not 'that person' any more! Keep up the good work!
