In theory, I started the eating a bit healthier and exercise at the beginning of the year. I weighed myself today and am down a whopping 3.5 pounds in a little over 4 weeks. So, I am losing the weight at a snail’s pace. I know this has a lot to do with my meds, hysterectomy, being over 40, sleeping with my son which leads to roughly 3.5 -5.5 hours of sleep per night, etc. However, I am hoping I will be more likely to keep it off if it is coming off slower than in the past.
I did incorporate cleaning and reading into yesterday’s schedule. It was not straight cleaning but more organization. I moved our guest bed back into my son’s room in order to sleep in the same room but in different beds. Unfortunately, he cried hysterically at the thought of sleeping in his bed alone, so I went into his bed until he fell asleep. Then, sometime in the middle of the night, he woke up and I got back into bed with him. I feel my way to wellness will not be fulfilled until I can sleep normally again.
Well, today is Day 2, and you may get an update tomorrow of today. Or you may not. Not adding more commitment to my life! I’m too tired.
I would do 44 for 44 but it feels too rushed! I am not sure I really need to lose 45 lbs but there are many components to 45 for 45. I am going to try to be healthier by my 45th birthday. I want to be my healthiest thus far. So, it is not just weight loss but overall wellness.
