Today I exercised and I truly enjoyed the workout. I used weights and I used stretchy bands. Those stretchy band are something that I started using a few days ago and it really challenges my muscles. In my video she uses the bands but I did not have any and I thought that using the weights would give the same results. Don't you believe it. When I used the bands I found muscles I did not even know I had. It felts good -you know what I mean? using muscles that you don't normally use, but I am sore today.That part always feels good.
I wish that I could get a grip on my appetite, I wish that I could control that part of me that seems like a roaring tiger. I did fair today I did ok I ate moderately but I had to use my emotional muscles to keep from indulging. Will this ever get easy? Or will I be fighting myself the rest of my life? Will I ever be able to take a deep breath -glad that the worst is over with?
I ironed today, and I ironed and ironed and still have ironing to do. I let it pile up until it is almost overwhelming. Not all the time I mean most of the time I iron once or twice a week. But I got kinda lax about it and it piled up. OH well I looked it up and I burned 85 calories an hour and I ironed close to 2 hours. Not bad. I would have preferred burning off a couple hundred -now that was wishful thinking.
Baby is coming to spend the weekend with me. My dd and her husband has to work. He came a little while today with my son in law and we played charades. You can't get too detailed with a 5 yr. old so I did a clock with one arm going slowly down like the "seconds" hand and he says the sun. No darling not the sun. Are you God grandma. No darling (laughing almost uncontrollable)I'm not God.
How did he get God out of one arm going down.
That was my day-Looking back over my day-I really am satisfied with all of it. It has been a beautiful day that the Lord made for me.
THE JOY IN YOU
GOD CREATED YOU. HE KNOWS YOU AND
EVERY ASPECT OF YOU. HIS LOVE FOR
YOU IS BOUNDLESS, AND HIS JOY
IN YOU COMES FULL CIRCLE EACH TIME
YOU CALL HIM INTO YOUR LIFE IN
PRAYER.

LOL @ your little grandson! He is the cutest! So you like your stretchy bands? I've got an older Mari Winsor pilates DVD with the "magic circle," but I think she's updated to stretchy bands. I'm curious about them.
ReplyDeleteI feel you on the appetite muscle, Joy. It's my goal to get my eating in line in June. I updated about maybe doing another challenge on my blog like we did this month. See if you'd like to join me again!
Love ya, and God bless! Have fun with the baby this weekend!
