I absolutely SMASHED my steps goal today! My daily goal is 6000, so I’m well over. I feel quite tired, and a little bit sore… But I also feel good for it!

Last week, when I hit 10k, I was left in pain for days because I was stupid and didn’t respect my own limits. But today I did it slowly, bit by bit. Rather than doing it all in one go, alongside my sister who always speed walks, leaving me to practically jog to keep up with her, I took my time.

Today I went for three walks, at my own speed, and I took breaks during each walk. I also took my toddler nephew to the park, which we both really enjoyed.

Anyway… I just wanted to share something positive for a change, haha! I hope you’re all doing well. 😊

I did good today. I walked into the town centre with my sister and my nephew, AND walked back, too! Normally, I can only make it one way, so I’m super proud of myself. (Altogether it’s just under 3 miles).

AND, not only did I meet my daily step goal of 6,000… I also walked a further 3,096! I feel so good for it. I am so determined to lose this weight. I need to. I’m going to. I’ve got this! 💪

Just a random thought shared today. As we walk through life we will encounter the mountain top’s peaks along with the depths of the valleys. Both locations have positive and negative effects. But the goal is to keep walking. As you progress, progress by noticing the beauty that is present during each step. Looking ahead is nice, but this can distract from focusing on your current terrain. Looking behind can serve a purpose, but…you are beyond that point. So simply keep moving forward, for #TheMighty #keep #Walking !❤️

I love to write and I love to adapt songs and poetry. It's something I do for fun and it helps keep me grounded.

Written for my partner this morning:

You are my sunshine,
my only sunshine
These days may be harder,
while skies are grey
But, don't you fret dear,
it's warmer when you're near,
and, together we will always find our way

I have officially have been walking for 7 days in a row and I have never walked this much in a row! For a young woman who struggles with depression and anxiety this is a huge deal for me! Even when it’s Been cold I still manage to get out and walk! I would always make excuses not to walk! Now walking is one of my favorite things to do! I love walking the trails! I have been walking for 1 week! I’m so so proud of myself! God is good! 🙌🏻😀❤️#Depression #Anxiety #EatingDisorders #Walking
