My Journey Through Life

I am feeling angry right now. I don't know when it started, but at some point in the day, while it was a beautiful, perfect day, I got in a bad mood. It may have been when I was talked to in a way that I didn't like...then I found out that the whole process of going to a conference has become a mess! I made plans to go with a group because I wanted to go with a friend of mine and my sister and niece. We are ending up spending way more for the tickets than we would have if we had purchased them on our own and now my friend isn't even going! I don't blame her, she has a perfectly good reason for not going. The thing is that we could have purchased tickets for $79.00 for three sessions, the tickets that they got for us cost $75.00 and is only for two sessions. We thought we had tickets for all three, now we have to spend an additional $24.00 a piece for the extra session. I feel a little better just getting it out of my system and I know that this must be part of Go...

DH called me this morning on his way home from work, wanted to go out for breakfast. I called his sister and we met her at Bob Evan's. I had the fruit and yogurt crepes and turkey sausage off the fit from the farm menu. Big mistake! It was really good, but the crepes had lowfat yogurt, don't know what the crepes themselves were made of, but the total was 10 points on WW! That is almost half my food for the day just on breakfast! I had a meal bar and milk for lunch and plan on a salad, which will be almost no points for supper. We did go for a walk for almost an hour, I have been doing great with my exercise and plan to go to the gym the next two days!

Had to drag myself out of bed, but I did it!!! Went to the gym, 15 minutes on the elliptical, 15 on the treadmill! That is exercise 7 out of the last 9 days!!! I feel so much better, especially after the Yankees 20 to 11 shellacking of the Red Sucks!!

My legs were bothering me a lot...really stiffening up when I was sleeping or driving in the car a long way. I would stop after an hour or so of driving and I felt like the Tin Man looking for an oil can!! I would have to start out and they would loosen up as I walked. After just one week of eating more sensibly (I still have to make improvments) and consistent exercise, I notice that my legs are not as stiff and sore!

Alarm off at 6am. I did not want to get up and exercise, but since I made yesterday my day off, I had to! Took a brisk 30 min walk...1.53 miles. I am so glad I did!

Decided not to work out today. My leg muscles are sore and I don't want to over-do it. Having dinner with a friend I haven't seen in ages. Maybe I will do some Yoga tonight before bed...trying to incorporate lots of different exercises into my routine!!

My legs are not as stiff in the mornings since I have been working out regularly. I know a week isn't enough time to see big changes, but if after that time, I notice an improvement, just think how much better it will be after a month....six months....a year. I have to go for a bone scan this fall, I hope there is improvement there, too.
