It was a fabulous day. It felt SO nice to be off work. And I'm off again tomorrow. Hallelujah!
I took the day off from the diet/exercise, but still ended up walking over 3.5 miles throughout the day between errands, walking to the park, etc. So not too bad for a "day off." This day made me realize that I have changed, at least slightly. I just don't have the same urge to binge anymore. Don't get me wrong, I'm not totally reformed. I still ate unhealthy foods today and more than I should have. But it didn't feel the same as it used to. I don't want to be weighed down by food anymore. It feels so much better to eat lightly and feel active and fit. I'm so ready to be back to normal (and it really does feel like normal to me now) tomorrow!
Probably the highlight of my day was walking to the park, sitting in the sun, listening to Paolo Nutini and No Doubt on my iPod, and reading my fitness magazines. If I had time to do that every morning before I started my day, I think I would be a much happier person. I'm vowing to make more time for things like that in the days to come. It was the first time in a long time that I felt like me. And like a really happy version of me. It was fabulous.
The plan for tomorrow is to get back on track with the exercise, and of course the diet. Hopefully time for a little sun, and then some early Valentines Day shopping with my friend Andrea. For now, I'm off to bed!
Good night!
Love it! Music in the park - sounds like such a nice day. Love seeing such positive posts from you. :)
