Day 4/90
Photos:
Rory on the trails and my workouts today, and also a photo from 2013 a friend posted of a heavy unhealthy unwell me that speaks for itself (I’m on the right)
Struggle:
Conversations with my brother surrounding my Dad and what we do next. He is continuing his aggressive behavior in the psych ward and we’re not sure he’s going to thrive or calm down if and when he gets back to his beautiful memory care facility.
Win:
I took a slow work day AND I started strength training with my trainer Mark again after having to take a couple months off due to the care for my parents. It was great to see him!
(1) No alcohol
I did not drink today. A friend posted a photo of me from 2013 when I was at some bar … we might have been performing for a show - I really don’t remember. These are visual reminders of the life I don’t want to live.
(2) Movement
Easy 4k before the gym, strength training with Mark, and easy walk/jog on the trails for another 4k with my best buddy Rory dog! I also made it to my Monday evening restorative yoga class.
(3) Hydration
I hydrated well today. I had my LMNT and a lot more water.
(4) Nutrition
I’m so grateful to have had some healthy meals prepared for me this week. I got my protein in and had veggies, salmon, protein shake and bar, shrimp and noodles with veggies. No candy.
(5) Mindset
I listened to my guided meditation this morning. I feel like yoga class kind of counts towards mindset also. And I resurrected my book project that I put to the side last year.
(6) Community
I chatted it up at yoga class and am checking in here. I also commented on and read Sober Endurance items on FB.
Great day overall. I have to bill more hours tomorrow, though. I can’t have all days like this.
