September/October 2019 recap - November 2019 Goals


I didn't recap my goals for September, or set goals for October this last month.  This was more out of laziness and lack of time than anything else.  My weight loss has slowed, though has not stopped, and it's difficult for me not to have the same successes that I had been having (and wrapping my brain around that, even though I know it makes sense), so I decided to take a step back.  I still managed to lose over 11 lbs in those two months. 

In October, I went to the gym 35 times.  I haven't been reading like I would like to, but I have made progress on some of my non-scale goals.  My closet has been cleaned out and organized.  I actually FOUND a pair of shoes I had forgotten about, brand new Fila sneakers, so that was a nice surprise.

I FINALLY got up the courage to block my narcissistic ex on all forms of social media, and his phone number.  After threatening to "turn me in" (for what, I have no idea) to my work, I let him know that there are some lines you absolutely cannot cross, and that was one of them. (Let my ED know that this threat had been made, and she told me to give him her name so he could ask for her directly, lol) It's been extremely freeing not worrying about him blowing up my phone at odd hours, or continually having to decline phone calls.  There is some crazy that nothing in this world is able to fix.

I am in a good place.  I have some amazing people in my life.  I am really very, very lucky.  I have so much to be thankful for.  I need to remember that more often.
