HKS (Healthy, Kind Support) Accountability Group January 7th

Good early Tuesday morning! Hope everyone got a great start to the week yesterday.

I woke up around 3:30am and just could not fall back asleep. My brain is on overdrive, thinking of everything that’s left to do before our move on Friday. Some moments, I think we’re on track, and other moments I freak out. It doesn’t help when David gets in one of his negative moods. Of course, I realize that we procrastinated too much at the beginning of the project. I’ve always been a procrastinator, waiting till the night before to write a paper for school, waiting till the morning of a visit from family or friends to clean the apartment. You always think you’ve got plenty of time, until you don’t. We’ll make it by Friday, no choice.

But I am pleased with myself that I have been eating well through all of this. It would be easy to constantly eat take-out, but I’m continuing to plan my days, eating plenty of fruits and veggies. I’ve had to adapt to the fact that the kitchen pantry items are now packed away and the fridge is looking more bare by the hour, but I’m making the most of it. In the past, I would be buying junk food (especially bags of chips) and stress-eating. I consider this to be a huge change in mindset, one that took me 40+ years to achieve and stick to.

My muscles are sore from all of the packing that I’ve been doing, in particular my left butt cheek. The daily stretch breaks from my company’s Health Hub are most welcomed. What’s on your workout calendar for today?

Wishing everyone a wonderful day ahead! 🙂
