My week all summed up...

...and it was great but I do have one concern. My doctor placed me on BP meds a few months ago and will take my journaled BP readings to my August appt. Since I have been officially weaned from my Effexor, have cut way way back on my alcohol intake AND eating very very well along with a successful week with my fitness...MY BP READINGS ARE CLIMBING! How discouraging! This evening...123/110. WHAT...IS..UP...WITH...THAT...
!?! Stay tuned...

I was very honest with my food and fitness logging and I am very proud of myself. After looking at my end of the week tallies, I quickly took little Lucy for a 15 minute walk so I could reach my week's goal for cardio minutes. Think of it, a few weeks ago I couldn't/wouldn't get my a$$ off the couch to do anything. After much prayer and pondering and Spark here I am and no one including myself is going to stop me.

Another great thing that is happening is Jim is losing some weight also because there is not nearly the crap food in the house. I wish I could get him to Spark with me but he has his hands full with work since he will be the next CEO of our company.

So here I go anxiously awaiting what lies ahead this Sparktastic Spark week. Tomorrow is my day off from anything fitness and my muscles are needing it. I remain so grateful for SparkPeople and continue to feel blessed to have found it.

Until tomorrow...Nighty night my awesome Spark friends...
