It’s been a whole month since I started working with a trainer (and posting here)! My mobility is getting better every day. I feel a bit better mentality as well.
To boast, I’ve also lost five pounds.
I really wish I would have measured (arms, chest, legs, etc). I should be fair and say every time I have measured, I always seem to do it wrong. Maybe I should really try this time.
Also, major life update: I’ve given myself the freedom to not want to worry for others when it is not directly my problem. It’s a firm boundary I need to give myself in the case of my parents. I am there to support them, but I am not the fixer. I’m an adult and I have things of my own I need to worry about. If I am asked to help, I will step in. This is something I have been neglecting for a long, long time. In retrospect, it’s something I did to make myself feel better about things I could not control. (GIF related)
I’m not fully over the hump, though: I still feel guilty about setting this boundary for myself.
Have you set any boundaries which have helped you long term?
