Hello Blog!
Well, what's new with me. Still recovering from getting my wisdom teeth taken out. Despite living on liquids and probably like 1200-1600 calories a day, I still seemed to put on two more lbs. My weight is really boggling me right now, but since I have no control over what it says on the scale, I'm trying not to let it bother me. I'm focusing on healing. Doing a lot of thinking and looking forward to getting my body moving again.
I'm at a crossraods with gyms. My current gym membership is about to expire - good thing. It's too far and Olivia doesnt like the daycare. A new gym opened up by our home that is fairly affordable and the biggest thing - like a 4 minutes drive. The things I do not like about it are, there are no classes - which I love classes because they encourage me to push through til the end and also that there is no daycare all day. Only at select times - which makes it more difficult for when I'm allowed to go.
Right now the gym is super new and the most kids they've had at one time is seven. I worry with how they have select times, if it will start to fill up. That said, they did say when there are a lot of kids, they have extra workers, etc.
The good things about that gym is that it's in and out. You go to workout and you leave. There are bathrooms, but no sauna or swimming pool. All things I usually like my gym to have. It's very crowded - so much equipment in one tiny space. But, still well organized and again - meant to appeal to "in and out".
I want to make a smart decision and the fact that it's so close really remains the biggest factor. There are two other fitness centers nearby - they are curcuits like "Curves", though, and that appeal to me. So, lots to think about.
Anyway, my weight is climbing up and I'm trying to nip it in the bud with exercise. I've also been doing mindless eating which, obviously, has contributed. Just trying to catch myself. But feeling a bit stuck at the moment with my modified diet and not being allowed to exercise.
One positive thing has come out of this, though. I am SOOO sick of sweet things! Tired of yogurt, ice cream, fruit smoothies, pudding. Anything sweet! So unlike me!
