DEC 28th, 2013: While I am still sore from my "angry" workout two days ago, I am doing better, but my thighs still yell at me when I need to bend down. Today I took a great trail walk through some redwoods, it was hilly, but not too much. Just right. My husband was a good sport as he was so tired and he agreed to go. (He knows I wouldn't go walking alone in that particular hiking spot) and after about a half an hour of the going upward, he actually started getting more energy. Then we both were able to pick up the pace. That's when I could feel my body responding and I was so very grateful. Not being anemic anymore is a life changer! It's nice to get more energy from working out. It's nice to feel more power during the mid workout. It's great not to have to yawn! And though my muscles ache, it's a different kind. They are pushed, but my muscles are not weakening.
I am calmer today which is nice. I also did great with my diet. So much temptation and I resisted and for some reason it wasn't all that hard. However, I do know, my issues come later, when the novelty of the new routine wears off. It no longer becomes a distraction for things that bother me. So I have to watch out for that once again and stay strong and keep my $#!T together. Today when I was remaining strong with my resistance to temptation, my husband's look of surprise was great and then he said "good for you!' and those words just fueled me and I continued to make good choices all day.
