Hi blah,
Are you putting pressure on yourself calling it day one, day two, back to day one?
How about monday exercise day
Tuesday stretch or yoga day
Wednesday take it for a walk day
Thursday laugh or tap dance, or sing or look at the cartoons or watch a minions movie (stress buster day)
Friday grateful day, thankful for the week so far, the effort put in, or the calories burnt up or happy to have another go day
Saturday, shopping trolley race day, how fast you can push the trolley past the sweets, bread, and carbs race
Sunday, rest you body, pamper day. I wanted to paint my toe nails when i first started off. You should have seen some of the positions i got onto trying to reach those pesky pinkies. Or just soak your feet in warm water, or cleanse your skin, see , i am not giving my self a treat with food!?
I know its nice to have a graph or chart with a line sloping down to the right. But what if we cant achieve that? It puts more stress on yourself. Just handle today, not day one, day two etc. Just break the day up into quarters, just control a few hours.
I couldnt handle the chart zig zaging up and down and up. So i said, sod it! And tried to do little pockets of exercise.
If this helps your frame of mind, you understand what i am trying to say.
I came here to this website because i was totally rubbish , really rock bottom at coping with ME.
Maybe i am crazy, or childlike, but doing it in baby steps, i was able to be successful.
Keep going, keep wiggling, keep giggling.
Love lucia
