My typical morning goal is to have 10,000 steps in by the time I set foot in the office. This morning, I was happier to have a bit over that. Started the treadmill with .8 mile walk followed by a 6.2 mile run. Seeing the results on the scale last week, along with fitting into a smaller size pant comfortably this week, really helps one’s mental health as much as physical health. While I have significant drama at work, I find that vigorous exercise in the morning is truly the best antidepressant to start what will likely be a rough day. I check my scale weekly on Thursday mornings. Let’s see what tomorrow brings.
