You have to listen to your body. It is not all exercise and nothing else. Eating healthy and getting plenty of rest is also important. I even started meditating for a few minutes every day, to see if I can slow my mind from going 300 miles an hour to going at a 100 miles an hour. But I still feel tired, so tomorrow, I am having my blood tested (and some other things) to make sure that my actual health is not affected and it is just my age that is beginning to show. I'm not worried, I can see if now: "you need more vitamins, or more vegetables...or whatever". I will let you all know later.

Commitments

My commitment for this week was that I was going to walk, at least, four times this week. I walked on the beach on Monday, went to the track on Tuesday and Today, walked the neighborhood yesterday because driving to the beach was impossible (it was the 4th of July after all). The rest of the week, I am keeping the exercise routine to home, exercising with aerobics and Pilates floor exercises. It is weird though: I have kept the eating very healthy, have done less than an hour of exercise a day (but more than 30 minutes), and for some reason, today I feel very tired. I just hope that I am not coming down with something. I will keep trying, because I have lost two pounds since July 1st, and I am exited about the possibilities. Let me know how you are doing, and keep trying.

I am happy I am alive

This is a small post. Just to celebrate life and the fact that I am alive. That the people around me who want to hurt me, did not destroy me. That the people that love me are still around me. Life is beautiful, even if some days we don't see it.
