Stress Makes Me a Slacker
Yes, stress makes me a slacker. I was doing so great about my fitness and healthier lifestyle. For three months it was amazing. Then all the stress of seeing my marriage facade crack and crumble, and making the decision to separate from my husband, has lifted me up and placed me back down into my old habits and lifestyle.
Well, the biggest hurdle is realizing that is what happened. Now to change it. I think once I get settled in next weekend, I will be able to quickly get back on the right track. Its hard to find time to workout if you are trying to pack and get things moved out of the old place on a timeline. I have to have everything out and the apartment cleaned no later than the 31st. That way they will release us from our lease.
I have to say that even through all of the stress I have continued to lose weight. I am down a total of 30 pounds since 2/9/17. My goal is 50 by the end of June. I know I can do it. So today will be my first day back in the gym. I am excited....I have missed working out. IT will be sporadic until I can get into the new place and take advantage of the new fitness center. But it is much larger and the equipment is much nicer. I can also take advantage of a personal trainer. That is what really got me. I have been doing this all on my own and want to get the extra experience of a trainer to push me beyond.
I want to continue to thank all of you for your prayers, thoughts, and support during my fitness challenge and during this time of change in my life. I am much happier now. The proverbial weight from my shoulders has lifted and I am pleased.
