So there it is. My weigh-in was less than satisfying. The only positive is that I am not 300 pounds. I don't want to fixate on the number but it is what it is. It is too much.
This past weekend was the AIDS walk and I walked 3 miles. It is the first time I have walked three miles since last year's Aids Walk. I did have a weird pain in my foot after a movement class on Sunday and that put me down for a day. Tonight I decided to work out in the pool with my friend. I thanked her afterward for keeping me just alive enough to not be dead. Pool workouts are deceiving. While in the pool I felt fine. I lost my breath once, upon exiting the pool my legs were jelly. I welcome the pain bring it on.
I don't like to focus on negatives like my weigh-in for example. Instead, I want to talk about the universe. I have tested the theory that get what you ask for for most of my adult life. I have achieved almost everything I have set out to do. This is one obstacle that I said I would overcome time and time again and I have not. The minute I made up my mind to do this a whole universe of help showed up on my doorstep. I basically have a personal trainer, I have another friend offering me gyrotonic sessions, and so many of you have offered to work out with me, or go on walks or try new dance classes etc. I am very grateful and very blessed to have all this support.
That number is coming down.
