It feels like it has been so long since I wrote anything. I think I was just back at the pool talking about dolphin boy.
This week was much better than I have been in a while. Well in most areas. Eating choice... eehhh not as good as I would like them to be but still more controlled than I use to.
The gym .. ahhh my gym. I love love love to swim. Some days it doesn't even feel like exercise .. till dolphin boys starts that swim lol Come on guys he looks like a dolphin I'm REALLY not trying to be mean. I have to say though it does build me up. I have to fight harder to swim and it makes me tired buuuuttt I have to fight harder to burn calories. idk if it's true but it sounds good huh? ():D
So after last weekend getting sick and MAKING myself hit the gym Tue I am feeling so much better. I was able to swim Wednesday morning as well. The past two days no swim cuz I had to go into work early. However today on my lunch I did get in a 20 minute walk. It was nice. Didn't feel ANYTHING like that first time I walked it two years ago.
I remember that day so well. I really had no plans to go for a walk that day, like today. I had no desire to go for a walk that day, like today. I walked to the lobby on my lunch and it looked so pretty out that I wanted some fresh air. I went outside and walk to the end of the building. Then out to the street. Then I just kept going (sound like a line from Forrest Gump huh? nnnooo he was running!!) I ended up making two laps around the full parking lot. I remember how I could not even walk a full lap without having to stop and rest. It took me pretty much the whole hour but back then but I just kept going. I prayed for friends that were going thru trouble and just didn't let myself think about what I was doing. Well till I couldn't breath and had to stop :/.
Today I got the same two lapps in in only 20 mins. I wasn't in a hurry but it was nice that I made both laps in LESS time and didn't have to stop at all YEAH ME!!!! :D
Man I can so tell the difference when I don't get a workout in before work. My stress level on gym days is so much better.
So my eating habits... man I wish I could say I am on target with that. I wish I was. I keep saying "but I am staying in my calorie range" .. and I am ... but I know I need to get real with it. I know that last weekend was a wake up call. No sugars!!! No greasy foods!! It was tooooo much for my body to handle. I will have a splurge day here and there but NOT like that. I am trying to get back to where I started. Just kept it simple no whites or sugars. Not that I go overboard on a daily basis but I need to get more fresh veggies back in my diet. yeah I know I said that 4 letter word but it's not that it's a diet but a "life style change" it's still my daily diet right? lol
So now if I could just get myself on track with both food AND exercise at the SAME time that would soooo awesome!! So pray for me guys.. PRAYER FOR ME I SAID!!! :D
Ok well speaking of exercise I probably need to get get some more. 20 min walk isn't really much for me these days. I got to get that squat challenge done. So stand back say a prayer and cheer me on. Let's do this
