Fitness Fellowship: Week Two
Jan. 15th, 2018 12:35 pmHello, Friends:
We've just had a second week of attempting to achieve our personal fitness goals, so as is the norm, please share what you'd like about how you did this week in reaching (or not reaching) those goals and what you plan to do in the week ahead to make fitness your focus.
If you're just joining us, feel free to jump in! :-)
One and a half out of four isn't bad, is it? *rueful grin*
So the eating habits have been pretty good; I've been healthy as much as I can be, and that's definitely been paying off.
I'd also been doing well on exercise, having ridden the recumbent bike for two days and gone for a brisk walk on a third, and then I came down with a cold and lost the will to do anything but eat carbs and read.
I have not meditated at all this week. In fact, until a couple of days ago, I'd forgotten that that was a goal. D'oh!
My sleep had been okay until Saturday night/Sunday morning. Anxiety set in (I have no idea what triggered it, which is frustrating because I'd been doing really well), and I was up half the night. Coupled with the ensuing exhaustion, this cold took me out at the knees yesterday. I'm typically pretty stoic about illness, but this cold has got me on the mat. I'm really hoping I can shake it because I do have to go to work this week. Thankfully, it's exam week, and I have AM proctoring duties tomorrow and Wednesday, which are functional half-days in that case.
Off to pour tea down my gullet and read some more. At least I'm having no trouble making my Goodreads goal so far. ;-)
Have a fabulous week three!
