Have a great day, everyone!

Merry Christmas to All, and to All a Good Night!

Two more short walks today. Probably didn't amount to much, but I got a lot of fresh air.

I read an article this morning about the studies which have shown the link between sugar and depression. The more sugar you eat, the more susceptible you are to being depressed. Also, apparently getting off sugar is harder than quitting cocaine. I have a tough road ahead of me, and I'm frankly not convinced I can do it, but I've love to severely cut down my sugar intake and even my dependence on diet sodas which keeps my sweet tooth hungry.

blueberry or lemon!

trade for scones?

OMG, just took Etta out and it was lovely. It was a bit too hot--83 degrees--but so beautiful. The sky was so blue and the fluffy clouds so white the trees and grass were so green, and there was a pretty consistent breeze to temper the heat. We took our time meandering and sitting on benches in the shade and it was so nice. I reconnected with nature for the first timei n weeks, and I feel like it charged up my emotional battery.

15-minute dance cardio. Hopefully this is just phase one. I didn't sleep a wink last night or this morning (I fell asleep sometime after noon), so suffice is to say I don't think I'll get any sleep tonight either. Considering my legs were aching horribly this evening when I was going in and out, it feels nice to stretch them out and use them just now.

Not so fast...

I'm now back to my early February weight--it's like the last two months never happened...and it does sort of feel like I've been in another dimension. Maybe I'm emerging on the other side now. I want to make some progress this month, and I'm recommitting myself to intermittent fasting...again. I just have to remember to stay on track.
