The Happs
Third week back at school and I must say that I’m feeling pretty great! I haven’t been doing as much “official” exercise as I usually do (which is usually 3-5 times a week), but I get in a good 1-2.5 miles four times a week, walking from my car to the MAX station when the parking lot is full and back, and walking from the Pioneer Square MAX stop to PSU (even though I could just take the green line, if I’m not running late and it’s not pouring rain, I like to walk).
It wasn’t an accident or because I have no time that I stopped going on my usual 4-6 mile walks or doing a workout tape, I actually took a break from the “official” exercise in hopes of making my knee stop hurting, and it finally has! I went for a 4.9 mile walk the other night and it felt sooooo good, no knee locking up halfway through and making me trip haha. So I’ll be going on more of those walks again soon. :)
Had a bit of a craycray day on the 3rd. I ate like. An entire box of Cheez-Its and a bunch of ice cream and a shitton of other junk food. That was also the day I did the AIDS Walk, and that day started out really well with my usual breakfast and then some yummy fruit at the walk, but then I just kind of went insane lmao. It was a good learning experience, though, because there are times in the past where I’d eat like that everyday, and I always felt like such shit, but oh, I never knew why! I felt so sad and headachey and bloated that day, but I don’t feel guilty. Because now I’ve had that experience, I’ll really think twice about doing something like that again. It’s one thing to eat like that all the time and just become accustomed to it, but when you’ve been trying for healthier eating habits and just assault your body like that out of the blue, it doesn’t react well at all.
Anyway, like I said, feeling good right now! The size 10s fit a lot better (most days) right now, and I’ve still lost some weight despite not working out as much, so huzzah. :D
