It felt SO good at my sensual class last night! Just getting those muscles all stretched was such an awesome feeling. As I was thinking that during the class last night, I was amazed at the change in my thought process!
Less than a year ago I would never have been able to imagine that I would ever consider ANY type of exercise to ‘feel good.’ Now I get a little bitter when I am not able to make a class that I had been looking forward to!
I need to kick myself, though, to get back on planning and preparing meals. There have been far too many days where I don’t have a clue as to what we are going to be eating; and even more that I haven’t planned for my lunches and have had to leave the office to grab a bite somewhere. Now, I’ve been pretty good to make sure I pick up salads, but this isn’t ideal for the health of neither my body nor my pocket book! This morning I put dinner in the slow cooker, and I packed a yummy-looking salad with turkey, cucumbers, red peppers and strawberries!
Considering my weight gain over my Vegas trip, I don’t think I am doing too bad on the Thinking Thin challenge. I’m down from the original weight, and I have been doing exercise, but I will admit I’m not quite where I wanted to be right now. Some days I feel that I have to simply look at how far I have come, and be proud of myself for that, and other days I just want to get rid of this last 20 pounds to see if that is really where I want to be. I don’t want to be a size 4 – I just want to have a healthy BMI, but I’m not even sure that 20 pounds is going to do that for me, either.
I’m feeling very flip/floppy today – can you tell?
