Daily Check-in
Good morning! After bouncing on my rebounder yesterday morning, I spent most of the afternoon watching workout videos and preparing to find a good home for the ones I do not want to keep in my collection. I was waiting for a painter to arrive, so I did not want to pull out a bunch of papers or personal documents. This was a great place to start in my journey to free my home of clutter. The anniversary of my fire Tuesday night reminded me that everything I own could burn. I need to keep what I love and enjoy and give the rest to someone who will be blessed by it now instead of saving everything just in case I may want it again someday. My first impression of a workout is almost always right on target unless I am tired or trying it for the first time late at night.
I went to the grocery store last night and did Cardio Kicks followed by the Kickbox planks and abs on the Ab Hits DVD. Today is my planned rest day. I am hoping to do Clutter Max again after the worship service. I started pulling stuff out of drawers and closets, and I have piles everywhere now. Paper clutter, pictures, books, workout videos and DVDs, and fitness shoes are my biggest offenders. Clothes get consigned or donated to charity as I shrink out of them.
My eating was clean yesterday, but it was a challenge to keep it that way. I had an overwhelming desire to munch on food all day. My cycle is super heavy this month, and I am extremely hungry. I wanted to eat even when I was not hungry, but I resisted the temptation.
Jane, if you do both workouts today, enjoy a few cookies! You earned a treat!
Becky, I am tired of winter too. Anything below 70 degrees is cold for me.
Conni, stay warm and dry on the way to church today.
Wendy, have a fun run.
Tammy, those barbell curls are tough. Your biceps will be on fire today. Enjoy the birthday party.
Phyllis, I hope you feel better soon. Have you tried Emer’gen-C?
Blessings,
Heather B.
