CHAOS AND DIRT!
I said that I was going to
weight in on July 25th and I did and had it in my blog last week not
but only half my blog went through so here it is: 200.8 last week, 200.2 this
week. I'm so close to being out of the 200s that I can taste it!! And, I'm
shocked the scale is going down since it has not gone lower than 203 in years
and I've been on vacation for the last nine days which has included a lot of
“vacation style” eating and drinking.
Instead of throwing caution to the wind
though I'm trying to be mindful of portion sizes and I am proud of that because
before I started this journey I would have had a whole different attitude about
what vacation eating was, that picture before would have looked like a free for
all! I've also kept to my workout fairly well during this vacation, well,
staycation really. We have company AND we are doing a lot of work in our
backyard the last two weeks and it gets chaotic around here.
Our vacuum and
steam mop haven't seen this much action in their lifetime! Then we have our
pups that are loving their new dirt playground and they don't wipe their feet
before coming back inside. This work will be going on for a few weeks and I'm
super excited to see the ending results and will gladly continue my daily
cleaning in the name of progress and I am moving my body, win win!
In addition to getting on
that dreadful scale I also added a body fat analyzer. It says I'm in a normal
range for my height and age and that makes me happy, and shocked at first being
that I weigh 200 lbs.
I'm also wearing more of my size 12 shorts and pants. This
baby step approach is working for me, very slowly but, it's working. I like
tackling each new day with moving my body and trying to stay mindful of my
eating, especially during highly emotional times! It's a whole new way of
thinking for me and way more peaceful than jumping into the next big “diet”. Im
done being extreme and I'm done being negative about my weight. This journey is
teaching me to love myself where I'm at. Not all women, or men at that, need to
be a certain size. I feel good at my size but, not being out of shape so that
is where I'm putting my energy, baby stepping my way being stronger in mind,
body and soul.
Have we moved today? ~Driven
Peace,
Panda
