DEC 27, 2013 -OMG. My muscles are paying for yesterday's "Angry temper tantrum" workout. OOUUCH! Every...little...movement....hurts. But I didn't let it stop me today. I just did a lighter workout and then went bike riding today. And though I had to work this morning, I had some good support and was able to leave early and continue on with my vacation time. So that was wonderful. I am also very proud of myself that I abstained from my regular bad choices. I also rode my bike today to a sandwich shop, and usually I would add on chips and a sweet. I found myself ready to grab it just due to habit, but I caught myself and stopped.
I am still a bit bent at the universe and I am very concerned about the emergency health issue of a friend, and my heart is heavy. In the meantime, I will not use my worry and anger as an excuse to stuff myself with food, I will instead use those emotions to fuel my motivation to work it off. And though there is no one really to blame for any misfortune, it still feels really good to say screw you to something or someone. So when I start to feel defeated, I will just scream in my head, "Screw you universe!, I'm working out. Just watch me!"
And then after a good workout, I will be able calm down and remember the things I am still thankful for.
