More confidence

Funny how doing the Master Cleanse has given me more confidence in accomplishing other things. I find myself saying, "If I could go w/o solid food for 10 days, I could go do 30 min. on the elliptical." Which I did do this morning. I'm going to start back up at the gym. I stopped because of some foot pain, but that's when I was doing the treadmill. So my goal is 30 min. a day for 10 days. I'm making it a short time so I won't get overwhelmed by thinking "every day for the rest of my life!!" But that is the ultimate goal. I just want to be fit.

When I went to Mesquite, I didn't eat anything really satisfying. I pretty much ate at the little cafe they have. I didn't end up going to Katherine's because my eating schedule was all off and by the time I went to see what time they closed, they were already closed =(. But it was probably better in the end because I was planning to just get desert and coffee.

I have a lot of things I want to change about my life. The 2 big ones are healthy eating and exercise. I went grocery shopping today to get stuff for breakfast (protein shake stuff) and lunch or dinner (salad stuff). But I ended up going out for sushi with Alex for lunch. He was kinda depressed and I think just needed someone to hang out with and talk to for a little while. And it turned out I had enough stamps on my card (yes, I've gone to that restaurant more than once!) to get a free lunch, so I split it with Alex.

I feel better today even though I only spent 30 min. at the gym. I have the number of a chiropractor that I'll probably make an appt. with. I still think something is misaligned.

I've really enjoyed my time off and feel pretty rested.
