Delighted with my loss today - I noticed a couple of things this week. With each pound lost, I feel a little bit better about myself, which leads to more energy...and with each pound lost, my poor knees and hips (that were simply NOT made to carry this much lard!) are a little less angry with me. These two things combined lead to what I refer to as "effortless exercise" - little things I do because I WANT to, not because I have to. I started walking to a local lunch shop close to work to get a sandwich - but it was a nice day, so I walked to a farther place and ended up with something healthier. I was in my kitchen on a cooking marathon last weekend (something I love to do, it's my meditation) but because I had great music on, I danced for much of the time. THIS, by the way, had the ADDED benefit of freaking my teenagers out...something I LOVE to do, and I'm pretty sure all the laughing burned some calories too. Anyway, when moving my body becomes less of a pain-riddled CHORE, and more of a JOY, I tend to do more of it. I'll have to be on the lookout for more opportunities for "joyous movement". Have a beautiful week!
