day thirteen: not gonna lose momentum now!

Last night a series of huge storms swept through my area, and are still raging outside. Thankfully, I haven't lost power in my apartment. However, they made it rather hard for me to fall asleep last night. So I stayed up a little later than intended, and allowed myself to sleep until I naturally woke up, instead of setting an alarm. It was nice to get a full night's rest, and not feel guilty about hitting the Snooze button forty-odd times before grumpily rolling out of bed.

Now I've had my breakfast, and I'm letting my food settle in my stomach before hopping into my first exercise session of today. (Possibly my only for the day because I'm supposed to be going to see a drag show with a few friends tonight, or hanging with another friend I haven't seen in a long time). So although it's Saturday, I'm still going to stick to the main bits of my schedule. I'm going to have my meals as close to my normal time as possible (with a slight adjustment to lunchtime since I woke up later than usual), and I'm going to do a good, hard workout this morning.

I can feel my body changing and I'm loving how much better I feel everyday. I'm looking at myself more in the mirror, I'm seeking out mirrors to look at myself in. Normally, I just rush past mirrors, glimpsing in them only to make sure my hair wasn't doing anything crazy, or my clothes weren't disheveled. Other than that, I never sought mirrors out, just avoided them as much as possible. But lately, I find myself looking for mirrors, admiring myself in them, noticing all the parts of my body. I'm still not at the point where I feel I look great, but I'm very proud of what I've accomplished so far, and I'm looking forward so much to all that's left for me to accomplish!
