Well, my second day of my life change. I am going to really try to keep this journaling up. I have never been good at writing things down, but hopefully this will help me keep myself accountable.
Last night I went to my friend's house to exercise. Since it was pouring down cats and dogs, we exercised inside. She has been my best motivation. I also work with her. So, I am able to talk with her about the lifestyle changes I am making. She eats very healthy and exercises 4 to 6 times a week. She is a life saver! I am so blessed to have her by my side supporting me.
She started her lifestyle changes about a year ago, give or take. She has made drastic changes and I am blessed to have her helping me.
I know this is going to seem like a lot of work at first, but as I get used to it I'm hoping that it won't feel like work anymore. It has only been three days since I started eating healthier (2 days since I started tracking on here) and I think it is making a difference in how I feel already.
With my fibromyalgia, I am constantly fighting being tired and feeling like I can't function. It is depressing when you know it is a beautiful day outside, you can feel the sun shining on you through the window, but it is too much of an effort to get dressed so that you can walk out of the door to enjoy it. I don't want to be like this on the weekends and I'm gonna work hard to change my actions. Just like I force myself to get up and go to work everyday, I need to force myself to do something enjoyable.
Sorry, that my posts seem depressing, but it is how I feel right now. I am working on turning it around. I want to be true to myself as I journal, so that I know what my journey has really been like.
Arguing with family members is also a difficult thing. Especially when it is your mother that you love dearly. Hopefully our relationship will get better as I get better. :)
Anyway, I'm logging off for now.
