Day 12/30 Apple Cider Vinegar Challenge and a Walk
Hello, Friends!
I walked a mile today and it felt good. I will probably be posting my dailies a little bit later because the time that I take in the morning literally shifts a few things and work stuff takes a priority so I find that recording in the morning and posting later will have to be a necessity -- unless things change.

You ever get that feeling in the pit of your stomach that things might change?
My intuition is rarely wrong but it never tells me details. LOL frustrating!!!
Day 12
20 minute walk
I figured it would take approximately 20 minutes to have a brisk walk to the park and back and I was right. What I'd completely forgotten is that it's nearly all up hill from the park back to my house!
The funny thing is the song that popped into my head to keep my feet going at a steady pace.
Seems like it was one beat per step. Weird, right?
When you walk or exercise, do you listen to music or do you kind of let your mind wander?
For safety reasons, I don't listen to music.
- I don't trust the drivers in Florida
- See reason 1.
I already do not like this "habit"
I know myself too well. I exercise for a while, feel good, lose weight, and then I stop.
Getting dressed, putting on my sneakers, grabbing my water and phone to finally walk out the door felt like a chore - like going to the grocery store or laundromat kind of chore.
There is nothing really enjoyable about this at all. I had to convince myself to go. I fear generating a new habit with this activity is going to be hard because I will be fighting with myself every. single. day.
I need to have a better mindset and switch the gears in my brain to be okay with this. I need to make that commitment to myself.
That's it for today. Thank you for being part of my health & wellness journey. If you could be so kind as to subscribe to my YouTube channel, that would be FANTASTIC and greatly appreciated.
Love,
Meredith

You are a good person -- much like I talk about in my last post - I am logging off for months again. Thank you so much for ... just everything.
It is sooo good to see you @intelliguy - even for a brief moment.
You are one of the handful of people that gets a hug if ever we meet IRL.
Looking forward to your next check-in. <3
