January was a true test of my patience. Unexpected house guests moved in, forcing me to find a new apartment and pack up all of my belongings in the span of a week. And while all that was happening, my food was being eaten without my consent and my personal belongings were being used and misplaced. Ah, the joys of sharing a living space. I tried my hardest to remain calm in the situation however, I had a few stress pimples popping up and could definitely feel the stress taking its toll on me. Despite all of this I remained fairly on track with my healthy eating and exercise proved a lovely and welcome escape from the craziness in the house.
Now, I am in a new apartment (with a gym and yoga studio in the building!) and the stress of that situation is fading quickly. I would love to say I’m settling into a routine after the move but that would be a lie. I have been traveling recently, and will be for the next week and a half, so consistency will have to wait. But I have been exercising fairly regularly and eating pretty well (aside from a day of eating my way through Boston). I also managed to prepare all my own food for my flight in an effort to ensure healthy and delicious food and to reduce waste. It was definitely a success!
The future is looking pretty bright! I have decided to get back in touch with my ballet roots (left untouched since age 15). I want to incorporate more ballet themes into my workouts and do some barre routines. Though it is not much, I do think it will add a fun spin to my workouts. Well those are all the updates I have for now!
Shine on,
