'Just keep swimming', Dory keeps saying. That's how I'm feeling at the moment.
Calisthenics has gone crazy - I've taken a much bigger role in the running of the club, as well as teaching two sections this year so I'm well and truly entrenched in the swing of it again. Two nights a week plus weekend time is beginning to take it out of me and we're only two weeks in!
Work is going well - I'm still only a temp worker but it doesn't look like I'll be leaving any time soon. The girls I work with are great and I feel like a part of the team. Such a change from the last couple of workplaces where I have really felt alone or on the outside.
Fitness is improving - my friend and I have been going to parkrun (done it twice now!) and I've been walking or riding to work most days. I'm loving that exercise is something that happens without much thought. I just do it, I don't agonise over it, it just happens. Of course I need to work out my schedule and which days I have a bit more time (walking), a bit of time (riding) or no time at all (driving) between work and whatever else is happening.
Food is swinging wildly between reckless abandon and sticking to the program. This is one area where I need to stop and think before I make a rash decision because I am super bad at reigning myself in. I'm still on a downward trend weight-wise, but if I don't get some control back, it could get way out of hand. I need to trust in the Isagenix system and stop making excuses to stray from it. The times that I have deviated, I have really felt it the next day - sometimes almost like a hangover! Both sugar and fat make me feel a bit gross, and I need to remember that. Breaking habits from 10+ years of being on my own is hard, but it will be worth it in the long run. I need to think more about the big picture.
Health is key. Just keep swimming.
