Tomorrow is Christmas Eve. I have family (mine and my husband's) arriving from tomorrow afternoon and throughout the following day - there will be 5 extra people here tomorrow night and a total of 10 extras at the peak. My mother will leave after lunch on Christmas Day, but others will stay up to 3 days after Christmas.
People are bringing food and drinks, but I am providing the core of all meals and many snacks, so the house is full of food. I don't expect to lose any weight this week!
Not that I have lost any this year. Weight-wise, it has been a year of failures and setbacks. My shoulder is bad, it makes me cry, and the busy season is not letting me rest it.
But apart from my heath, it has been a good year. Next year will be even better.
OH!! Don't be discouraged! Even if you didn't lose any weight, in the last 6 months you learnt about your body and what it can handle:
ReplyDeleteYou learnt that you can enjoy exercise once you start to get into a routine with it.
You learnt that you need to take some exercises easy - like pushups and Pump class, because of your shoulder.
You learnt that it is possible for you to track your food.
You learnt that you don't enjoy being sick, because let's face it, who does? but also because it stops you from going forward with your goal to a healthier you.
You learnt what you like (step, pump), what doesn't work (getting sick) and what does work (exercising in the morning to get it all over and done with).
I read on to 2011!
