OMG, I am sooo glad I am not the only one whose hubby loves the couch while I need to have a busy day to feel like I didn’t waste it…

I LOVE that quote as well!!

Great quote! And I think it’s very true. I feel best after a busy day of doing things. I can’t just do nothing, or I start feeling bad about myself, make bad choices – it’s a vicious cycle.

Have a great, busy week! :)

Great quote! I feel the same about the end of a well-done busy day. And, like you, I often find that I’ve done those things alone (sans husband, who like yours enjoys the couch life a heck of a lot).
I also feel better about myself now that I’ve committed to a lifestyle change…and I don’t really have much on the results end yet. Just doing life better makes me feel better about myself.
I’m sorry you had a tough time with food over the move. I told you before I’ve moved 19 times, and I can’t think of a move that didn’t involve crap food. It’s just how we cope with the stress and lack of kitchen. I’m just glad for you that the move is over, and that you’ve already made it to the farmers market! You’re already on the right path again. Don’t you just love the right path?

I couldn’t agree more! It is so important for your health and well being to be up and moving. Yeah sometimes it is crazy, but in the end you do feel great :-)

This is very inspiring for me. I definitely do more since becoming a healthy person but I could up that a bit. Feeling accomplished is a great feeling!

I agree! I think being good to yourself and being active definitely has a domino effect and can feel great! I would add that a major key is doing things I WANT to do. If I do a lot of things that feel like obligations or things I think I “should” do, it drains my energy and can have the total opposite effect.

There are always things that need to be done that maybe aren’t my favorite things but sprinkling in things I want to do and are fun to me makes me feel really good!
