Happy Monday all. I hope you had a nice weekend. Mine was low-key. I really enjoyed the rain we had on Friday
night. My lawn certainly enjoyed it as
well.
I’ve been laying low on the activity side as well. No
workouts or running for the last 4 weeks. I’ve seen my regular doctor, an ortho
and a physical therapist regarding my knee issue. Not sure if I ever explained
but as a child, I had knee surgery that had me in a cast for a year. It’s never really given me major issues but
it would flare up time-from-time. Apparently,
I taxed my knee with all my running. The
Physical therapist said I had very little
muscle strength in my thigh due to my surgery and that I shouldn’t run
at least for now. It’s hard news to
hear. The PT has given me some leg
exercises to do for the next few months and I will do them religiously… I also
plan to go back to Kaia Fit and work out. I really miss it but I’m not going to
lie… I’ve rather enjoyed sleeping in and not doing anything. But I know that’s not good for me physically
and certainly not emotionally. No
activity equals depression. At least for me… so today I’ll be heading back.
For now, I’m concentrating on eating
less. EATING LESS. Very hard to do, RIGHT? I feel like I’m always hungry, even after a
meal. If I can just get my body USED TO WANTING
less food, but obviously, it's a process. In the meantime… I keep telling self “food is just fuel. Not
everything has to be a party in my mouth.”
Even though I love parties. lol. If you have any suggestions
on how to eat less, I’d love to hear it. I know it’s a silly statement and
there’s no one answer, but whatever you can lend to the conversation I would
love to hear it. For now, I'll food journal either on my fitness pal or even taking photos of what I eat... just to get perspective. Anyways, I hope you're doing well.
TTFN,
Paula
