Throwing Away the Crutches
Hello all. This is a vulnerable one. In case you're wondering about the title, it's not referencing my newly pulled back that occurred while dumping out a bag of mulch Sunday night. Not lifting it... dumping it. It's been a week full of back braces and squishy ice packs . Yay. Saturday I forced a weigh in, at least for myself. We basically haven't weighed in since January. From that point on it was dealing with holiday weight gain and all of our projects (bathroom reno, finishing that reno, carpet installation on the stairs, work instability (still going on) then the never-ending saga with the water coming in on the subfloor/roof hole, etc) so our lives were just fitting in walks where we could when it was cooler. We actually did that quite a bit until the weather got unbearable. When I had to go in for my vulvoscopy June 3rd, I accidentally caught a glimpse at my weight and it leveled me. I was 10 lbs higher than when we came bac...
The week did go by kind of faster than I expected but I'm definitely not complaining. I will say that I am so glad we're lifting the restaurant ban this weekend because I am sooo craving a burger! That is getting back to what cheat meals were all about. Nice to actually have a true craving for something this time. But April has proven that we can be very good for most of the time while still giving ourselves that one special treat we really crave. We got this!
ReplyDeleteDude, I'm so eating that burger with gusto! I can't wait! I hope our friend doesn't mind us eating like sows! LOL
DeleteI'm sensing a brussels theme here.
ReplyDeleteExercise does help me, but like walking and swimming for exercise not jumping around like a crazy person exercise. That wouldn't feel good at all.
Enjoy your weekend and your restaurant treat.,
Agreed...light cardio helps a lot but not squats and other things that squeeze my insides.
DeleteNo, jumping around or inside squeezers are out. I don't like to poke the sleeping bear known as my uterus!
Deletethe food looks delish!!! as always:)
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend...
Im off to cleveland to meet my friend and her little 10day old baby boy:)
Thanks girl! Enjoy your time with your friend and her bambino!
DeleteYum!
ReplyDeleteI have the same issue when working out when on my period. Sometimes I'll be ok at first, and then it starts to feel way worse. UGH
Yeah. I don't take a break then (I know some people do) but I try to make the workouts a little less jarring. ;)
DeleteEnjoy your burger!! I don't have much planned other than a meeting in the morning and then doing some Mother's Day shopping. The weather is supposed to be beautiful, so we're hoping to walk the dogs down on the riverwalk. The hubs took them to the dog park today so they are nice and tired. =o)
