First...

All of you.
It was really hard for me to put myself out here this
way and I have gotten so much support!
I appreciate each of you!
Second...
I feel A-maz-ING!!
No. Lie.
I can't recall a time when I felt better!!
Now...
During the week I struggled a bit.
OK...a lot.
I was sore, tired and had no time for anything else.
However, by Friday I was ready to rock!
Will offered me a free pass {Anniversary Weekend and all...} and I turned him down!
I actually felt like working out...weird. I know.
I didn't just want to do the minimum either. I wanted to push past my usual limits.
I did. It was incredible.
I sorta wanted to die.
Maybe even throw up.
It felt great. I was sure I would die...
and I didn't.
Not only did I not die, I was up and ready to roll the next day!
I think I might be getting how people can really be exercise junkies.
I really do feel better.
This really is taking up a lot of my time. I had zero social time with friends and no time for blogging or other social networking. This was hard for me. By mid week I was getting pretty down and grouchy.
I realized something today though. I saw some of my friends. They still spoke to me and they are still my friends. I am not giving them up. I just need to focus. Establish some healthy habits and get in to a routine. Then the workout schedule can be more flexible. I can even include them. My point is that I can have both...my friends and my health. No sacrifices need to be made here {unless of course you are counting Oreos as friends}!
Anyway, I wanted you guys to know that I am busy working it! Working on being healthy and happy. Working on having my cake and eating it too...with my friends!
How are you doing? Is it hard for you to find time to balance things in your life? How do you do it?
I am so very proud of you Kim! And even though I can't say from experience, but I really feel like it will become easier and more manageable. It's just getting to that point that is the major trial. Keep up the hard work, you won't regret it!
ReplyDeleteI don't have time to work out.... I have to dig to find the time so I don't do it much.
ReplyDeleteLately I have been enjoying bad food!
So.... I was doing yoga very early in the am.... I am going to re-start once my head cold goes away (too much pain bending over from all the pressure)
Because of my left heel pain (plantar fasciitis) I haven't been walking as much either.
Just waiting to get my fat on I think? Arrgh.
So, I stopped over here for some much needed inspiration.
I'm going to take all kinds of remedies to get this cold gone and see about yoga tomorrow morning!
Love you :-)
