Let the fur fly!

So the whole point of this blog is to get healthy. Mentally and physically. I think the mental part is improving. The physical side, I haven’t really intentionally working on, other than a few random workouts. Until last week. A friend introduced me to the concept of the “FAST” diet. I’m not following it, strictly. It has however got my brain started back on the track of counting calories, watching my choices and working out. I haven’t gone overboard. I just counted calories Thursday. I started some loosely based meal prep for the week. Then I started counting calories and working out again Monday. I messed up my knee Monday night, so I took yesterday off of the workout and instead focused on calories and drinking water. It wasn’t intentional, but I met the gallon challenge. That’s crazy to me. 128 oz of water. Today my knee is still sore and braced, but I have my gym bag packed and plan on biking or seated elliptical or something, and hopefully some weights. We’ll see. I’ve counted my calories this morning. I packed a healthy-ish lunch (there’s always room for improvement). I’m trying and my brain is wanting to train. In the past that’s been my problem. My brain is comfortable with the extra fluff and fur but curses it all at the same time. Right now, I’m ready for the fur to fly. I pray that my quest for health continues. I’m not looking necessarily for a number goal, but I feel good today. I pray Lord, this continues. In your name I pray! Amen!
