As we wait for the reports and a decision about the future course of my medications, I tried to set a work out schedule for myself. Getting back to the gym after almost 2 years needs a LOT of motivation :( - especially for an outdoor person like me.
Here are some pictures of the wonderful, sunny autumn days I have been taking advantage of to exercise and recover - on days like these I certainly don't need much pushing to get out and get some exercise.
Thankfully, the weather has been very nice. Its been a warm and relatively dry late October. I've been making the most of it - riding my mountain bike.
- Saturday: 16.98 Kms
- Sunday: It rained all day so did all the home chores
- Monday: 13 kms
- Tuesday: 9.24 Kms
- Wednesday: 20 Kms (indoors in the gym)
- Thursday: I took it a bit easy and went for a walk in the wine yards instead for 5.20 Kms
- Friday: I had all intentions to go to the gym again. Before that, I went to my office and saw all these lean/slim good looking people and my 'damaged goods syndrome' (as Lori Hartwell puts it) took over. Depressed - I just got back home and continued working :(
I know that perhaps I am not pushing myself enough to see some encouraging signs of weight loss. I also know the kind of perseverance needed and the time it takes. So, my efforts are going to be sincere, but I am sure I will have days like today when my mind will not be with me. Thankfully, my husband (V) plays the role to push and encourage me...
