No second helpings
JENNIFER I finally made it back to the Y last night. Things have been so hectic with traveling for work and the Thanksgiving Holiday. I was very worried that I wouldn’t make right choices especially knowing I had to eat Thanksgiving dinner twice this year. We celebrated with my husband’s family on Thanksgiving Day and then my family on the Sunday after. When there is so much good food, so many choices and buffet style it’s SO hard not to overeat. I can truly say I didn’t. I can even tell you that the mashed potatoes were good and I only had one small helping. You have to understand - I’ve never meet a potato that I didn’t like! For me to only eat one helping, well that’s earth shattering around my house.
It felt good to get back to exercising. I have been walking some but it’s not the same type of workout. I was also feeling overwhelmed with my to do list for work, my long list of Christmas gifts to purchase and large piles of laundry still to be done when I got home. The workout seemed to help me get focused and I felt I got more accomplished. I still find it amazing that 45 minutes for me makes such an impact on the rest of my day.
