I have yet again been given a challenge.
True to my regular self, I have overdone on the exercise.
Now, I have to spend a few days not exercising to let the
owwie rest up and get better.
This has happened to me before and in fact caused me to
give up on myself and the exercising routine.
However, this time I will NOT let this happen. I have been
doing so well working out, loyal and regular and wont
let this stop me, only will delay me for a short time.
I actually tried to work through the pain, but when it
returned yesterday, I decided it was time to actually
listen to my body and to not let it get to my mind.
I have never had such success in staying with a
routine this long, so that shows I CAN do it.
Now to just let it go and heal and move on.
In the past, I would have used this as an excuse
to give up. This time I am fighting awfully hard
to keep from letting that happen.
Reading my writings over again has helped me
to know that this is true.
I like myself more than I have in a long time.
We are taught when young to put others first.
Sometimes it is okay to do so with ourselves.
This is what I intend to do. I will back off a bit
on the workouts till I heal my owwie, then
move onward toward my goals.
The Glass is again half full!
Hugs
Katie
