Energy Waning Already?

Progress Report
Mind:
  • 32 days strong on Headspace
  • Half way through the NASA STEP Program
Body:
  • Leslie Sansone's 6 Week Program
Soul:
  • Planning amusement trip with my best friend
  • Keeping up with the daily sketches
  • Planning lunch/dinner with friends

We are only half way through week 2 of the year and I'm already feeling exhausted?

The partial government shutdown is making a lot of colleagues antsy. I am fortunate to be getting a steady paycheck for a little while longer. I am fortunate that I do not see the need to take out a loan to sustain myself while the fine folks at Capitol Hill are sorting the budget out.

AIAA Houston and RNASA activity is ramping back up. I don't feel like I have the bandwidth or sustaining momentum to whittle down the tasklist. I was assertive enough to at least state my availability in addressing these actions.

Let's see how next week goes.

Yesterday's Results The scale reads: 145 lbs. Goal: 137 lbs. The stupid Wal*mart pedometer reads: 3375 steps, 0.852 mi., 140 calories (Lies again - the pedometer reset with my notice) Other aerobic activities: Snoring :( My ma has one. My future mother-in-law has one. According to one website, "Neoprene belt helps shed inches and fat around the waist. Lose weight naturally around the waistline." So far, no offense to them, I haven't seen it work for either one of them. I honestly never worn belts. Even at a slimmer physique, I didn't care or need to wear belts. To this day, I love wearing baggy jeans, but I never sag. My hope is even if I lose weight, I wouldn't need to go purchasing new baggy jeans. What fitness accessories can help (I do know there are no one-stop-cure-alls out there) lose the weight "naturally?" So far I have ankle weights and small weighted gloves.

Last Month's Results The scale reads: 145 lbs. Goal: 127 lbs. I can't believe 8 weeks has passed already! Look what I have accomplished within that time: I've earned the Presidential Active Lifestyle Award ! See, I earned myself some golden stars! I could've technically had 7 shiny, golden badges of accomplishment, but I had forgotten to keep track of my steps while I was in Southern CA (The first week of the challenge). I think I actually did more walking during that trip compared to the last 7 weeks of this endeavor. I guess it was silly of me to initiate the challenge before going on the trip. Regardless, I'm content with the results because: I was able to reach my goal. I was dedicated to this endeavor and a positive result came of it. I got the award electronically . I wasn't going to dish out 6 buckos and some change to get the paper one with stickers and a badge. There were many stressful periods during the weeks, but I walked off most of t...

Progress Report Mind: Embracing walking meditations Making progress on that Headspace 365 days streak (Currently at a 25 days streak) Body: Leslie Sansone's 6 Week Challenge Soul: Doodling My, my. Coffee ice cream has kept me up for the last 4 hours. I am not a fan of this nervous energy. This caffeine sensitivity to a coffee extract is frustrating at the midnight hour. Anyways... The Jessica Smith love is still going strong through the last however many years. Her January 2019 challenge is infectiously encouraging me to try, try anything and everything again. My anchoring mantra for the year is "energy." Every day is an opportunity to get and spread more energy. My optimistic conscience is pushing for 365 days of positive energy! To this end, the new goal for the progress reports is to record the positive developments in mind, body, and soul with less nag and fuss, which usually deplete energy. Comebacks for the n th however many times feel...
