"In Control"

The renewed commitment to monitoring my diet couldn't have come at a better time.  It's not easy, but I know it's the reason I'm staying sane right now. I definitely need this break, and while I still have lot of aches I suddenly feel a bit better.  I felt almost no discomfort in my hamstring during today's run, and I also realized that the break from swimming and weights has left my shoulder feeling better than it has for weeks.  I have decided that I'm done running for the rest of the week,  and the shoulder improvement has me thinking about doing nothing!  I want to go to Hamilton on Sunday relatively pain free, just so I can enjoy the day without stressing about pain or injury.  And in the mean time maybe I'll even get a few nights sleep.

Which brings me back to my diet and my relative sanity.   I know that if I'm not eating like a pig, that I will be able to cope with the downtime, just because I won't be stressing over weight gain.

So if I make the choice to rest for the rest of the week, that leaves me with lots of time on my hands.  I'm pretty sure I can fill it, and if not all I have to do is ask Roo...
