Day 3

Today seemed to be the hardest of the three to actually get up and started.  I was a bit sore, had an appointment at early o'clock and I couldn't avoid being lulled back to sleep by the rain.  I didn't eat until almost 3 pm, but when I did it was an apple, followed by a banana shortly after.  By 6 p.m. my only 'workout' was walking around Sam's club and tidying up the house. My lesson today became "better late than not at all".  I've been working out right when I get up, but today it ended up being just before 10 p.m..  I was determined not to let life keep me from working out, so I decided I'd prefer a late workout over a 'rest' day.  Thankfully, I had Corey's support and company.  I don't usually like working out in front of her, but I took the next step of my journey and asked her to join.  It was a good workout for the both of us, both physical and emotional.  I'm not quite ready to make a habit of it, but in time it will be something we can share on a regular basis. Hopefully I'll even be able to keep up!

Another great step today was the added support of my mom.  She invited me to Sam's to pick up what I wanted.  She was very supportive of my food choices (fruits, veggies, and some lean meats) and even proclaimed that she reads my blog every day.  Extra support from Mom and Corey was JUST what I needed to continue on this path.
