Fresh Start

 

          Oh my goodness, I finally broke and overindulged yesterday and am paying the price now. I still feel full from yesterday. I had a rough weekend though. I got punched at work by a dementia patient (jerk). It was my friend's birthday, but he is no longer around to celebrate it, and it was the first Easter in 30 years that I did not celebrate in a silly way. My kids have officially outgrown the Easter bunny. 

           I did manage to get over 8,000 steps in, at least, LOL, and I finished up one of my classes. I ended up with an A for the class, yay me. I got all the responsible stuff done before I gave out to sleep.

          I am back on the Weight Watchers wagon today. I feel better knowing I am at least trying. Before, at night, I would feel so disappointed in myself because I was not being good about being healthy. I was always beating myself up over it. Now, I am better because I am succeeding. It is going slowly, but I am doing better. My blood pressure is great, my pulse is no longer tachycardic, I am down 20 lbs, and people are starting to notice. I have to keep reminding myself that slow is good because it will last. I hated how I felt at night before starting this journey. Now, I am much more at peace.

          Okay, time to start tackling my To Do list. First up is finishing up my other class so I will be free until the Fall semester. Then gardening and grocery shopping. What a wild day ahead LOL.
