Despite the frequent trips to the gym, this holiday season seems like it has added a bit of padding back onto me. In keeping with my recently adopted zen attitude, I am not going to get onto the scale until after the new year begins. Instead, beginning on Boxing Day, I got back into my healthy groove. Veggies instead of cookies. Lots of water instead of lots of wine. Fruit for snacks rather than chocolate.
I went to the gym this morning and was able to make it through a longer than usual workout, despite the fact that my brain kept suggesting that I cut short my cardio or maybe skip the weights today. My body dragged my tired, whiny brain along for the ride and I managed to make it through. I was feeling pretty good about that. I even got the kids to go out for a walk with me this afternoon, even though their tired, whiny brains were not all that interested! :)
I am humbled by how quickly my eating can slip, especially when surrounded by the stuff of bad decisions. I do know how to be strong and I am going to get myself right back.
