Tried a new treadmill setting today. I have been doing no incline, just worrying about speed of walking. But the machine has pre-programed settings for cardio, fatburn, aerobics, gluts, and all kinds of other wonderful training labels. Today I had a relatively short amount of time so I decided to just try one of the settings and just do treadmill.
There was an aerobic workout that looked like peaks and valleys of activity. It shifted between I believe flat and three levels of elevation while working within my speed range (which I set just under my usual 2.5/2.7 mph.. 2.2 mph ).. I did a solid 25 minutes on the machine which was also a difference. Usually on the flat machine it starts feeling straining after only about 8 minutes or so. The variation was enough to keep my body from feeling as much strain. All and all it was quite the positive experience.
After, I went to the grocery store to get some produce. Ugh, what a disappointment. I think I am going to have to change grocery stores. The selection there is usually small, but fresh. Today it was small and NOT fresh. Turned my nose up on almost everything they had because of one issue or another. I am not a perfectionist. I can take a bit of browning on a lettuce leaf or having to pull the top layer off my cabbage or even an imperfection on my apple or bruised banana! But food actually starting to turn, well, turns me off.
There are at least two others in my area I can get to relatively easily. Will have to get there and stock up on healthy food to start cleansing and having a healthy lifestyle through and through. Shed some of the physical pounds to loose this mental tether that has held me down for too long in life.
Love to you all.
Amy
