Today I went to my second Power Hour class. I've been to it before but stopped due to my lovely arthritis acting up in my knee. That and I had pneumonia three times. That sucked. But a cortisone shot cleared up the knee so no more excuses!

It's been so stressful at home lately I just had to admit that I needed an outlet because apparently stress eating doesn't work so well!

So I went on Monday and then again today. I love the teacher of this class, she is tough and she makes us sweat but at the same time she also can give us options to tailor the workout for those of us who can't do certain movements due to things like arthritis. I don't feel singled out for it or that I'm holding the class back in anyway. So tonight I'm a little sore but it's the good kind of sore though. Of course we'll see how 'good' of a soreness it is in the morning. I did notice this morning that my morning stiffness in my legs and feet were much less than it had been. YAY!

Still stressed though, it's getting better. I don't think there is anyone out there that doesn't have stress, if there is, what's your secret?

So I'm trying again, I have so much weight to lose. I'm trying to concentrate on smaller goals. Like this week I'd like to lose 2 pounds but also stick to eating more healthily. Weight Watchers is helping with that. Today I got my points calculator that I had ordered. I love it!! I went through the pantry and wrote the points values on all of our food. My husband probably thinks I'm nuts but it does make me pause and think if it is really worth eating now that I can SEE the point value immediately than waiting until at night when I can log in my food for the day.

One day at a time and hopefully tomorrow will bring another good day!
