sylvanwitchHello, fellow fitness folks! I hope you're keeping warm (or cool) and well wherever you are. The weather has somewhat moderated here in my part of the world, but it won't last. Still, I'll take my chances to get outdoors while I've got them.
As usual, please share how you've been doing with your goals, big and/or small. I hope you've got successes to report, but if you don't, please know that you'll get nothing but support from me.
Weight: 194.4, up .6 from last week. This is not a surprise (see below, re: eating plan).
Exercise: I did yoga 4/4, strength-training 3/3, and got meaningful steps in every day, mostly on the elliptical. We did get out to mall-walk on Friday, and we actually walked outside for over an hour yesterday (Sunday) at the Falls. It was cold but absolutely stunningly beautiful.
Eating plan: I've been comfort eating, and while I haven't been eating too much of anything, I have been indulging in too many takeout meals, for example, with a predictable result. You know, though, despite the weight gain, I feel pretty okay about it because I did eat in moderation even with Thai food, for example, which has often, in the past, been a stumbling point for me in terms of portion sizes, etc. So, I'm taking it as an overall win, even if the short-term result is a slight gain.
Meditation: Yes! I meditated 3/2. :-)
Hydration: Yes.
Sleep: I've been good about getting to bed on time during school nights, but my snow day/weekend nights have been less than reasonable, with the predictable result that my sleep schedule during the work week also gets thrown off. *sighs*
The week ahead: More regular sleep, less takeout food.
Have a good week, be kind to yourself, find joy where you can, and enjoy the quiet moments when they come to you.

Date: Tuesday, 3 February 2026 12:34 am (UTC)We did get out for shopping and errands recently, which was quite productive.
Tomorrow will be mostly sedentary as that's the Poetry Fishbowl, with a theme of "Books and Literacy."
