Back on the wagon

Went to the gym today.  I'm feeling pretty sick, but I'm not sick enough to allow myself to sit on my butt all day.  I have started a new routine.  I will go to the gym at least three times a week and am going to do ab workouts three days a week.  I did the first of these on Sunday.  Today I did 25 mins of running and some upper body weights.  I have also picked up my fitness app again so I can keep track of my calories.  I weigh about 15 lbs more than I want to and 10 lbs more than is acceptable.  My pants don't fit anymore and my lungs are not doing well.  Doesn't help that I'm sick.  Hoping to feel much better soon.  Bleh.

Here's my run (HR only).

Helloooooo fatass!

I've been sick this week.  Lungs are pretty bad.  Mostly, I've been fantasizing about exercising.  Sounds stupid, I know.  But I fantasize especially vigorously when I try to put on a pair of jeans.  They mostly don't fit any more. 

The depression has taken a toll and the general sadness makes it very difficult to motivate.  Plus, when I am exercising, it makes me think of all the things I wanted my life to be, but now it most definitely is not. 

Everything is changing and I'm trying to be okay with it.  I need, most of all, to find the part of me that is proud of being strong and fit.  My lungs are really suffering.  And if I don't start really exercising again, regularly and soon, this winter might be one of my worst yet in NYC.

Today, my body feels tired and sick and I've had a painful headache all day.
