sylvanwitchGreetings, fellow spinners on this planet Earth!
How has the week that has been treated you? I hope it's been a good one, full of little joys and accomplishments. Please do share your fitness ups and downs here, as usual, and know that--also as usual--there will be no judgement, only kindness and support.
Weight: Just a tiny bit up from last week's weight.
Eating plan: I get tired of hearing me talk about how I can't stick to my own plans. *sighs* The fact is, I've been anxious and sad about going back to work this week (tomorrow is the first full day of classes for the new school year), and I've been eating to drown that out. I have mostly been eating healthy food, but I've been eating too much of it (and too many pints of non-diary frozen dessert).
Exercise: Despite being tired on the three days I had full or partial days at work last week, I did manage to get an hour or nearly an hour of exercise every day, including daily yoga and lifting. For the first time, I earned a monthly "Gains" badge for registering four hours of weight training. I was proud of myself for that and hope to duplicate the achievement in September.
Meditation: I'm doing 15 minutes of yoga every day, and part of that practice is Savasana, which allows me some deep breathing and mind-clearing.
Hydration: Ugh. I struggled with this and found myself truly parched a few times while at school, despite carrying around a big bottle of iced water. I will do better as I readjust to my new teaching schedule.
Sleep: This has been rough. I've been all over the place with bedtimes and have had a real struggle to fall and stay asleep. I'm hoping I'll be so tired this week that I do start getting more regular, longer bouts of sleep.
Plan: Do my best.
I'm sending out all the groovy vibes I can spare for a good week for you all!
