So. Thanks S for the gentle prod. lol...
My husband and I did go hiking over the long weekend. We did a 5 mile hike on New Year's Eve - one we've done numerous times. But it's a local hike and one that's a good re-introduction to hiking. I'd thought we hadn't hiked since early in the Spring, but my husband reminded me we'd hiked in August when we went to Pinetop/Lakeside. Still, a long time and it was our first hike since he'd been diagnosed with Valley Fever and pneumonia a few months ago. He really felt it. It didn't seem bad to me, though. Surprising since I'd stopped working out regularly a couple of months ago.
Yesterday we took another hike. Planned on hiking in about 3 or 3 1/2 miles top, then turning around and hiking back out. We got to the turn around point and the deal was, if we both had at least half of our water left, we'd do the 9 mile loop, instead. Well, we each had half or more of our water left so on we went. And I've gotta tell you, this hike was a lot harder on me for various reasons. I'm not even talking about the length of the hike - the first 5 miles were the most difficult in many ways. I'm just feeling so sluggish and full of toxins. I really need to get back to eating properly.
Ended up burning about 3,000 calories yesterday. Which would be awesome except my appetite was out of control yesterday. A little too intense for the exercise, I think.
Today? Better. At least as far as food is concerned. Didn't work out today. I started taking some of the decorations down. This is one Christmas season I'm anxious to say goodbye to.

Hiya, D!! Glad to see you! Great job with the hikes...wish it was warm enough to hike here, but alas it's not. Maybe the next couple of days it will warm up. I have been starving myself...not sure if it is psychological or what, but I am eating when I feel it. Calories were a bit high, but not out of control and the carbs were right where they should be. We can do this, my friend and we will!!! I hear you on the Christmas situation...I just wasn't feeling it this year. My stuff inside is all down already, and I didn't even put it up until the week before Christmas. Not sure I would have done anything if the kids hadn't been coming. Hope next year is better. Anyway, love you lots, my sweet, beautiful friend. Hang in there, it'll get better. Hugs!!! <3<3<3<3
