izzypup68's Journal, 18 June 2015

I have been working this week to get into a new routine for the summer, but today, I woke up early and felt so tired. I thought about skipping the gym, but then firmed up my resolve. I could skip if I planned to skip, but if I stopped going whenever I didn't feel like it, that would be a problem. So, I got myself ready and went. It wasn't one of those magical days when I drag myself to the gym only to find that I work out harder than I would have ever expected, but I got moving and lifting and that is what is important.

I had some avocados that needed to be eaten, so I thought I would make a turkey & avocado sandwich for lunch. I ate about two-thirds of the sandwich and realized that I was getting full. I didn't even finish the whole thing! I got to thinking about how, in my former life, I would put together a sandwich (not carefully considered, but piled high with meat, cheese, and mayo), then eat the entire thing with a side of potato chips (and sometimes a second helping of chips!). Today, I felt in tune enough with myself to stop before I stuffed myself. Another mark in the victory column! :)
