Hi Ladies,
I haven't been working out (except for segments of Country Heat here and there), and to make it worse, I've been stress-eating, so I've gained a few pounds. The last two weeks at work have been incredibly stressful. My co-worker who is crazy (I think I've mentioned her before), has been at it again making unfounded accusations that I've been having to deal with and try to stay ahead of, so that has, unfortunately, been causing stress and creating extra work.
I haven't been able to get into a routine, or prioritize working out. It's been very frustrating. Spring Break is in two weeks, and I'm just counting down the time!
Also, I've been thinking about getting a treadmill or spin bike to jumpstart my cardio, with the thought that if I have new equipment in the house, I won't have an excuse to not work out. I've just started trying to figure out what would make sense. I don't want to spring for a Peloton, but I'm thinking maybe a Stryde Bike or a IC4 Schwinn, that I could pair with the Peloton app or maybe a treadmill, and though I haven't decided which one, I'm thinking something small and maybe even portable, so I could easily move it around the house. I'm so temped to just pull the trigger and get something, but I don't want to regret it, so I need to do more research. I might go to Play-It-Again Sports soon to see what they have.
SB - Thanks for keeping us going.
You've been doing a great job getting in your outdoor walks. The milder weather has been quite nice. I had planned to do yard work today, but didn't. I need to get out there soon since there's a lot of overgrowth (I need to cut back the hydrangeas and weeds). Hopefully you can pace yourself and not cause too much irritation to you sciatica/back. I know it has been very frustrating to deal with. I'm hoping that the milder spring weather sticks around (today is the first day of spring, after all!
), and hopefully you'll be able to keep up your walks without overdoing it. Funny that we posted at the exact same time the other day.
Waves to Penguin and Nora!
