There seems to be something inherently wrong with posting on this site right after posting on my other site about all the baking I have done. Yeah, well, here goes...
I am still here and I am still in the race for the long haul.
My wonderful BD is still working with me and helping me to stay on track.
I seem to have ups and downs...no different than anyone else.
I struggle a lot with this season of my life and the changes that are going on in my body. Some day's I just don't feel well. I am not going to bore you with all the gory details so just let it suffice that I ache, I have a fire that rages inside of me causing waves of heat to radiate through my body at any moment of the day, I wake up at odd hours for no good reason and can't go back to sleep.
The exercise certainly helps. I know it has to help!
And staying close to a diet full of fresh foods and low in processed foods also makes a huge difference.
My goal right now is to stay the course through the holidays. I am not going to do any mayor denying myself of those yummy treats that I so love to indulge in but I am going to moderate my portions and how many days of week I treat myself to something festive to my taste buds.
I am so thankful for my Bull Dog! She is just the most amazing trainer ever.
Yesterday as I was finishing my stretching exercises and ready to begin my workout, she instructed me to do a particular stretched. When I asked her about it she said I needed it because of the pain in my lower back.
How did she know that?
I had not shared that with her.
She informed me that she could tell by the way I was moving.
Yes, she is amazing.
She knows me.
I love her!
That sounds like a great plan...I have needed to scale back on the workouts some I have just not had the energy. And I think the moderation is a great idea. Restrictions in my diet never work for me. I think the hardest thing for me lately is to not eat the gluten I am allergic to. When we got to things at church or at as a family it is so hard to find gluten free food. I have to remember to tuck something in my purse for when I get hungry. The last few days I have had a little gluten and the result is hives and headaches yuck! Hang in there the Holidays don't last forever and a new year is approaching Where anything is possible with GOD~ And I am clinging to that. I am so ready for a new year this one was so hard I am ready to tuck it behind me and start new. ~Love Heather
