Will Run For Ice Cream

I wish that I could write that I'd done it... that I had reached my goal weight. But the reality is I let others' opinions and self doubt creep into my head. So my 2lbs a week weight loss came to a grinding halt and I hit a massive plateau. This snowballed into a self destructive pattern that has resulted in a very unproductive month. Well, to be honest, I can't say that. Because you can learn from every situation right?

So, let me set the scene... Hubby was out of town ( thank goodness he's back now ) for 11 days. It was a LONG 11 days. Lil Man had a cold. I had a cold. We got 2 snow/ice storms. It was basically non-stop chaos. And that meant I had to get creative to get my workout in. I rarely had a block of 30 minutes or more to get in my workout. But what I was able to find was 10 minutes here, 15 minutes there, an occasional 20 minutes sporadically. And I realized, it might not be ideal. I might have an audience and distractions. I might have to jump off of the treadmill a time or two to resolve an issue. BUT 10 minutes is better than zero. I get asked ( and criticized ) a lot about just how much I workout. (i nsert eyeroll ). Technically, I don't

If you've been anywhere around me then most of you know that 2017 was definitely a rough year for me with injuries and health related things. I spent a lot of the year in physical therapy, and then I was diagnosed with arthritis after being in the boot. ( Yes, The Doctor Told Me To ) So how are things now?
