Baby steps
Wednesday, 7 September 2011 01:57 pmI am trying again. Yesterday I learned that my depression values have gone through the roof again and while it shouldn't have surprised me, it did. Well, that shan't keep me.
I have been good about my breakfasts: 30g of cereal, some fruit, a glass of veg juice and herbal tea. Normally I get less good over the rest of the day, but for the moment I will cling to those breakfasts.
I've also been on a shopping spree again, trying to find a fitness program that actually fits me. I've found one that is designed to keep your dog and you fit and aims to use your dog as the social support needed to keep going. I am reading the book at the moment, but haven't gotten far enough to make any comment yet. It has just made me more determined to at least try again.
I've just gotten back from a 20 minute walk with little Loki. 15 minutes slowly, 5 minutes brisk. I could feel my heart beating after the 5 brisk minutes. Don't get frustrated self, remember what the doctor said: baby steps. Loki was terrible in the leash and the traffic noise gave me a headache. The little boy and I have a long way to go if this is supposed to turn enjoyable at some point. I think I might rush to the park next time - away from the noise and try again. May be the puppy course, starting on Sunday will help to teach the little man how to behave on a leash.
Baby steps. Baby steps.
