It is 180 Days since I started posting my Daily Food Diary. π€
It is 3 Years and 4 1/2 Months since I started working out, improving my eating habits, and working on stress management.
Increasing my strength and stamina (even minimally) was my original goal. I am reminded of that goal every day and I cannot believe how far I have come. It is so much more than feeling better, looking better, or being more comfortable in my own body. It is my life in general, from working out six days a week to being capable of doing basic everyday tasks.
It is hard to get excited about taking out the trash, but when I pulled the garbage bag out of the trashcan this weekend – with little to no effort – I was the heavy weight champion! YES πͺ I pulled a few deep rooted weeds out of our front yard. Again, YES πͺ I walked Molly, all by myself, last week. HELL YES! πͺ
Anyone can sit in a rocking chair, watching imaginary people living imaginary lives.Β Β I am living my life!Β The fact that I CAN never fails to amaze me and it is more than enough to keep me moving forward. Β Β
