There you have it. I didn’t get my 10k steps per day, but I haven’t been being lazy about it either, I’m still getting lots of walks in, I’m just still trying to get my stamina up with it since I have been hitting the gym. I am very happy and excited about hitting my gym goal for the second week in a row, that one is super tough for me, but I’m doing it. I have my workouts dialed in and I’m starting to get in a groove. Just need to keep this up to make it a habit that I look forward to doing, not there yet.
The hike this weekend was beautiful, but pretty challenging for me. It was a total 0f .8 miles, .4 of that straight up 400 feet. It took everything I had to truck up the side of that mountain, but I did it! It was totally worth it, so gorgeous.
This week I’m going to keep striving to get my 10k a day back and continue to goto the gym. I’m focusing on the gym more because I think it will do me more good in the long run, but I don’t want to ditch the walking, that is good for me too!
I’m not sure what to think about not losing any weight this week. I feel like I have been working my ass off. I know this is the long journey, not the you lose all the weight in a week journey, but come on, give me something! Oh well, I will keep working hard and fighting the fight! Well, that is all for now folks, tune in next week for a new installment of the long journey. Love you guys!
