This is my fourth week going to the gym. My goal is to workout 3x a week. When I go, it’s to participate in classes. I also live in a city and don’t have a car. So on the off days I don’t go to a class, I normally get in a decent amount of walking. I do a fast paced cardio and strength class called metabolic conditioning. I also do yoga. Sometimes I’ll do both classes in one day. My muscles are sore after every metabolic conditioning class. I can feel that the classes really challenge me. I normally go to the gym in the evening. If I have free time that lines up with a class on the weekend, I’ll go during the day. Well, tomorrow I’m leaving until the end of the week to attend my friend’s wedding in my hometown. I have only been to the gym two times this week. I actually feel really anxious about missing it. On one hand, I’m like maybe this is good because it just means I’m really committed to my goal. On the other hand, I wouldn’t say I’ve ever had a diagnosed eating disorder but I definitely used to have disordered habits. Also last weekend, I was drinking alcohol (extra calories) and wound up skipping like 6 meals over the course of the weekend to compensate. It started Friday where I only ate 300 calories but I was so anxious about drinking (I was going to a social event and didn’t want to abstain), I really wasnt hungry. Now with the trip this weekend, I’m like I’m actually in the wedding, I’m sure I’ll be busy, I’ll be dancing. I don’t think it will be a big deal to miss one day. But I was thinking maybe I’ll feel better if I pack a workout mat. But I am also kinda concerned because I’m getting so worked up about this when I should be focused on supporting the bride.
