Day 22

Long Day at work, and I didn't go grocery shopping so that I could prepare my meals for the week, so I will go later tonight. After work I went to the gym and saw both Seth and Alison. I actually never seen them together before. Talked to them for a short little while and learned that since my friend signed up for 24 Hour Fitness w/ her bf, I get to have one free training session with Seth. [woot]

Today I did Cardio. At first I did 15 minutes on the ellipticals, and then I remembered the step n sculpt class was today. That one hour class wiped me out. After the class, my right knee started to hurt like a pinching in my knee. I think I overworked it out today. [Can you imagine? Me Working out TOO MUCH?!?]

It was my grandma's birthday today, and I called her and wished her a happy birthday. She's really awesome and is one of my motivators in this journey that I have embarked. Thanks Grandma.

Lastly, I have to remember that it's not always about the numbers, according to lbs. Next week, I am going to re-measure my measurements and see how far I have come to being healthy.

[By the way, If you are reading this Seth, the step n sculpt instructor whips me more than you do so far...so... BRING IT SETH!....that is all..]

Mental Wellness: Relieving Stess

5 different ways you can relieve your stress besides eating:

One. Working out [Yeah, I know. Can you believe it? But take it from me, it really does work.]

Two. Go Shopping! [Shopping is a good way to just get away from it all and take some time for yourself]

Three. Movies [Watching a movie at home or going to the movies with a friend is such a great way to get out of this world and into a different reality in the movies.]

Four. DOGGY! [Playing with your dog or pet is a way for you to have someone to be there for you and as well as you for them. Great way to have some fun too]

Five. Friends. [Being with a friend and talking to them about anything and everything is always a good way to relieve some stress. maybe even a good cry might do some good.]
