Today, after being quarantined for over a month and kind of getting in an eating pattern that works with my harder workouts and more sedentary overall lifestyle, and feeling like I was on the right track, I gave myself second degree burns to my left hand. This may not seem like the end of the world, but a lot of what has been helping me stay happy, active and motivated was my yoga and my sewing, with. a little guitar playing to ease my stressed mind. I am now on Norco and have not moved at all today, with the doctors saying to take it easy until some of the skin on my hand comes back, so I do not get infected.
I'm not running, I'm not doing yoga, I'm just vegging. I was freaking out, thinking this would impact my weight loss until I realized, it doesn't have to. I love to run and yoga for my mental health, but I also love it because it allows me to add a lot of extra calories into my day. I've switched MFP to sedentary and now I am at 1320, a 500 calorie drop from what I'm used to.
I am determined to not let this put me back into a binge lifestyle. I am still on my way to being 135 pounds(I'm 15.4 pounds away!) and I know I can get there. I don't need a round of applause, I just wanted to put it out into the public that I am not giving up.
