I'm going through a medication change, which includes sleepy time medication, and I feel like a zombie! Time to back off a bit, I think. I want to be out there exercising, but my body feels like mud. Like I'm trapped. I'll update, but I won't go on about it.
Motivation: Where do I get it? I'm good at helping others and pumping them up, but why can't I do it for myself? I do want to be stronger. I want to be thinner, and I want to be healthy. I think I need to work on a goal board with goals reached and reward on the other side, something tangible that I can see. You know? Like a dream board.
Well, it is, really. And then there's Darlene in my ear, "Stop thinking, Veronica, and just walk."
She's right.

Have you heard of the Spoon Theory? I can totally understand where you are coming from (I blog about my challenges http://testimonyinlife.blogspot.com) My advice? It is always easier said than done! Don't beat yourself up, the board idea is a great one! We all have our good and bad days. Make sure you rest and take care of yourself firstly. I have a hard time working through the pain sometimes, it really helps me when there are people helping me. Invite a friend over to go for a short walk, or to spend some time outside with you? maybe? we're all different though - what works for me might not work for you. Just remember to surround yourself with positive and don't forget to smile :)
