I feel like I've been working out hard and pushing myself in the last few days, but I feel great. I'm back to being sore everyday and feeling each workout - kind of like I was at the beginning. But, wow, am I ready for a break this week. I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's jumps-only day.
Something happened during yesterday's jumps where I started shifting my weight from foot to foot without picking up each leg which is what I was doing before. Anyway, suddenly jumping became much easier and 2 minutes no longer felt like 19 minutes! It's the little things that are getting me through the valley.
I'm still sick... so stuffed up... when my head hits the pillow at night it becomes harder to breathe and I had a couple of interrupted sleeps this weekend, though last night was a bit better. I usually heal much quicker than this - is this PCP-related I wonder? I'm sick of being sick, that's for sure.
Last night I had a (quite unusual) hankering for something sweet. So instead of eating my evening apple, I baked it with a few dried cranberries and some cinnamon. It was SUPER sweet - actually a bit too sweet though Simon with the Sweet Tooth was not complaining. But it was nice for a change and felt like "dessert".
I've been thinking a lot about food lately - my relationship with it, my next indulgence, and what my post-PCP diet will look like. I am going to work on a post about this. And I will put up some new pictures this week.
Love 8MA!
I'm with ya on the thinking about food. I'm really wondering what post-PCP will have in store.
ReplyDeleteOooh. I'm looking forward to the food-think post. Enjoy your "rest" day.
ReplyDeleteThe cranberry apple dish being too sweet is a good sign. Your palate is back in business!
ReplyDeleteThat cranberry apple dish sounds great. I too can't wait till your post-pcp food blog. I wish I was thinking that far ahead, but I'm taking it one day at a time. I'm still battling a bit each day with the hunger, especially in the evenings.
