Fitness Progress Check In Day 17: It’s Okay to Not Be Okay

I did say I would be honest on this blog and I am holding myself accountable daily with my check in and workouts, even if myself and only 1 or 2 others read them. I am still waiting for the urine culture results to see if I have anything that is causing my stomach issues/bladder … Continue reading Fitness Progress Check In Day 17: It’s Okay to Not Be Okay

Fitness Progress Check-In Day 16

Yesterday while amazing fitness wise, was a little stressful health-wise and today's health issues just got a little less complicated and more complicated at the same time. I was a bit more sore from the exercise yesterday as well, but did manage to get 15 minutes (no music today) on my Sunny Fitness godsend air … Continue reading Fitness Progress Check-In Day 16

Fitness Progress Check-In Day 15

Last night, I was super eager to see how my body would feel after all the exercise I did yesterday. I did wake up a bit tired, and a few spots were sore, my abs, my bum, my triceps, my hamstrings, my back...LOL...hell, my entire body felt a little sore.

Fitness Progress Check-In Day 14: A Euphoric Day

Today was a monster difference compared to the past few days! Today, I OWNED IT!!! I started out strong with 20 minutes on the Air Walk Trainer followed by some pullbacks with the 25 reps with the green and red resistance bands.

Fitness Progress Check-In Day 13

After worrying about how I would wake up this morning after doing the yoga for IBS that I haven't done in over a year, I woke up pleasantly surprised that I was a bit sore, but did not re-injure myself in any way with this workout. I was disappointed, however that I was completely and … Continue reading Fitness Progress Check-In Day 13

Fitness Progress Check-In Day 12

Today I woke even worse than yesterday. The pain all over my body, plus my stomach and the exhaustion was just too much. I washed brushed my teeth and washed my face anyway, just in case my body woke up enough to get on that air walk trainer and glide my tension away. However, this … Continue reading Fitness Progress Check-In Day 12

Fitness Progress Check-In Day 11

Before I started a set exercise schedule last month, I had soo many days, weeks where I was utterly wiped out. Since I started up again, the days where I was too dog-tired to do anything were becoming less and I noticed I was able to push through the exhaustion which was very encouraging. Today … Continue reading Fitness Progress Check-In Day 11

Fitness Progress Check-In Day 10

I looked at the calendar and saw that today marks 1 month since I began exercising again and Day 11 of checking in online and holding myself accountable. Today I did only 11 minutes on the glider, and 50 pullbacks with the resistance band, plus 20 gentle squats. I also took my lunch hour to … Continue reading Fitness Progress Check-In Day 10

Learning to Appreciate Your Past, Present and Future Self

Many of us, as we are growing up, look at celebs in magazines, or those older than us and observe what they look like, how they dress, how they carry themselves, etc. We then, in turn, look at ourselves and see how we measure up. How do we compare? How do we look? What do … Continue reading Learning to Appreciate Your Past, Present and Future Self

Fitness Progress Check-In Day 9

Yesterday I didn't mention that I have been struggling just a tad on losing a bit of weight. Now 14 pounds may be nothing to many, but for me, it's been a struggle. At 5'2, I always weighed between 115 and 126. I have never weighed more than 130 pounds with the exception of college … Continue reading Fitness Progress Check-In Day 9
