A local brewery we love had a Christmas event Saturday with local makers and we went and bought a cute little coffee mug and a TON of beer (pictured is $137 worth of beer). We also got to meet up with our friend since it was his birthday and we talked bikes and training and exciting races in 2020 and it was so lovely!
We also chilled and slept in BOTH mornings this weekend!! That never happens, so two mornings in a row of lazily snuggling and snoozing and then relaxing with coffee was marvelous.
Not pictured: I’ve been working out again! I finally, finally feel far enough along in intuitive eating and HAES that I have decoupled exercise from controlling my body size and it feels good to train for spring sporting events and not to try to look a certain way. I downloaded Aaptiv because while I like Beachbody’s workout programs I was tired of all the weight loss messaging, and I’m finding Aaptiv way way better in that regard. There are weight loss programs, but I did not choose one of those, and I haven’t heard a single thing about “shedding fat” or any of that bs during my workouts. They also just posted a blog post I’m emotionally coping with weight gain and it was so good!
This morning I was rushed and didn’t have breakfast at home, and I’m all out of oatmeal at work, so I had leftover cookies and cupcakes from a seminar Friday for breakfast and it was tasty and really started off the day on a good foot because it’s going to be a long day of difficult meetings.
