Today was a really good day. I was able to surpass my daily goal for activity and made the perfect health choices. However, weekends on the job I find to be easy to do this. I still need to relish in every small gain I make with my journey. And I feel GOOD. I have my good days and my down right low days with my journey. I am happy to say and I am gaining more good days then the latter. Today I took a client on a hike on a local trail. We were able to do 8 miles today which was a nice added bonus plus doing the gym this evening. Since my legs were feeling sore (they were already sore because I did squats on the smith machine the previous day) so today I focus on the upper body at the gym.

Our little hie we did today. The weather wasn't too hot plus the shade made it enjoyable.

My day today. Super happy with myself.

Yesterday was my wonderful mother's birthday. She is one of the most important people that is in my life. I was brought into the world a Navy Brat and so for the first six years of my life we moved around from Virginia to Florida to Maine. Since my dad was over seas off and on due to the Navy, it was just Mom and I. When I was six my dad retired the Navy and four years later my sister was born. Last year she survived a pretty close call when she had a heart attack, That was incredibly scary. What was even scarier was her heart was healthy as well as her arteries being clear. She had a heart attack due to a small tare off an artery. I am so thankful she was able to fully recover and is healthy as a horse today! It really gave me a huge wake up call to make sure my own body is healthy because you are given one chance. Tomorrow it can go away and you may never know.

My Momma and I from our wedding. Oh ad my husband, Joe, photobombing.

So for the next week I want to keep maintaining what I have been doing these past few days. Remaining active and healthy eating. Sounds easy right? Oh how I wish! I will be off the clock Thursday so until then I know it will be easy. Its always the weekends off things are put into the test. My husband has been making his own healthy changes so that always makes temptations easier to resist when you have someone to do it with!
