Hello!
It's been a little while. Sometimes life happens whether you like it or not. We were away for 5 days over the 4th of July Holiday Weekend, no Planet Fitness... We went back to PF for one day last week, Wednesday. It was hard, seriously hard. Time away... eating, drinking, being lazy... Yep makes you not want to go the gym. Danny and I both felt A LOT better after wards and were planning on going back on Friday. Well he had to work and I had to have a root canal on Thursday. The root canal didn't go as planned and that left me in misery for the weekend. There was no way I was going to PF feeling the way that I was. I went to a specialist yesterday and she corrected my tooth pain. The excruciating pain is gone, but I am still experiencing some. I felt well enough to go to PF today.
Actually in all honesty, I began to miss Planet Fitness. I like it there. I like doing what I do. I met with a trainer and I'm not going to lie, I'm not following her plan, I'm doing my own thing. I'm not saying that I won't do what she would like, I'll do it eventually.
Danny and I went today. Although he said he would go, I don't think he really wanted to, but he did and that makes me proud. It was hard getting into it, but we did. I started off on the bike then headed over to the machines. I ended my routine by lifting some weights with my boy. SWEAT! I don't think I have ever sweat as much as I did today. It felt wonderful! After an hour and 15 minutes, I ended my PF visit in the Hydro Massage chair. Danny worked out for almost a full 1-1/2 hours! WOO HOO!!! That's my boy!
I made a promise to myself that this isn't how I'm going to be in a year. I don't ever want to be here again. This is hard, this life is hard. I made it hard for myself. Slowly I am learning to accept what is, but know that I have the power to change it. No one else, just me. There's a little light inside of me, my light and I am the one that has the power to make it shine
One thing that I have noticed since I started going to PF. I'm starving when I leave there. I can't wait to get home and eat dinner, BUT! the next couple of days, I have no appetite. I fill up easily, can't finish a (my) normal meal. Foods I used to like aren't appealing to me. Something is working! Something is working inside of me.
A few years ago this song came out. At that time I was currently in WW and struggling. I thought I had begun my climb, but I didn't. Now I know I have it. My Climb has begun and I have a long way to go, but I am sure going to get there! You just wait and see!
Become a follower! I'd love to have you follow me. Leave a comment and let me know you were here.
Lots of Hugs!!!!
