Deep Breaths

Well, my dad started off on the right foot….with a great workout!

Unfortunately, sometimes that is the only thing that goes right on a Monday morning! Work has been super crazy and stressful this morning. Lots of deadlines and not enough time. I have a FAQ post planned for my lunch break today- let’s hope I get a break!

My workout today was great:

• 40 mins treadmill @ incline 15, 4 mph
• 24 flights stairs

I had to say bye to my mom this morning….it was sad. She started to cry! Awww…I miss her already. It sucks that I only get to see her 4 times a year. Our visit this time was unexpected so I am just happy and thankful that I got to spend the day with her yesterday.

I want to know!

I look forward to learning more about you and hope that we can inspire each other to lead healthy happier lives.

Sorry for the short post! Please stay tuned for a FAQ post this afternoon!!! I will be answering all of your burning questions :D

P.S.- My office is FREEZING today! I am wearing my winter jacket inside! It is only 1C/33F outside today and for some reason our building heat isn’t turned on! My fingers are like ice! Ahhh the joys of Canadian weather ;p

“Exercise alone provides psychological and physical benefits.
However, if you also adopt a strategy that engages your mind while you exercise, you can get a whole host of psychological benefits fairly quickly.”
