I've been shivering all day. I hope I'm not trying to come down with something. I made sure to eat a couple doses (oranges) of vitamin C today, so maybe that'll help. It was an exceptionally long day. I'm exhausted. It's a day like this when I have zero issues in taking a rest day from my workouts. I just wanted to get home and get warm. And I did get home, a little after 8pm. And I've turned up the heater.
I prepared a good dinner, made sure I hit my water goal--and I'm about to drop to the pillow. I haven't had a chance to reply to emails and comments today. I will, early tomorrow. I sincerely appreciate the time you take and the thoughts you give, in sending them. Your readership and support is an enormous blessing to me. Thank you!
Normally I would just power through today and this evening, but I have a feeling the best thing for me at this moment, is rest. I need a good sleep. Have you ever had one of those days where you feel you just can't get warm?
#TBT With my late grandmother. She loved me so very much and she was incredibly proud in this photo at my very first book signing. I miss her, dearly.

Thank you for reading and your continued support,
Strength,
Sean
Haha. As we speak, it's -16 degrees here. That's minus sixteen. I hope you get all warm and toasty; we're good here. :)
ReplyDeleteDeb
Oh my goodness, Deb!!! I don't know how you handle it. I get super wimpy really fast when it gets brutally cold. A couple of years ago, we experienced -22F. That's the coldest I've ever experienced in my life... It hasn't been that cold in some time. I couldn't imagine dealing with those kind of temps on a daily basis.
DeleteVery hot here in Australia! I hope you're not coming down with something, but you have a healthy routine now so your body should be ready to fight it off.
ReplyDeleteYou're in the middle of summer down under! I so badly want to travel to Australia some day! And when I do--I hope I leave winter here and arrive during summer there.
DeleteThe shivers wasn't really about how cold it was--it was warm enough inside--It just seemed I couldn't get warm. It did manifest into some sickly feelings today, for sure. I'm feeling somewhat better tonight. I agree- the way I've been eating for the last 10 months is helping me considerably, I believe.
You need to be in Vegas Sean, almost 80 degrees here, record heat.
ReplyDeleteI'll be back there at some point this year! I have a free trip coming thanks to a promotion with Allegiant Airlines! Can't wait! Almost 80--wow. That's incredible. Looking forward to seeing you again, someday soon.
DeleteIt's 40 degrees today!! So, not too cold. But since I've lost my "lardigan" I have felt a whole lot colder in general!
ReplyDeleteI once argued against the point that we get colder as we lose our weight--but I'm beginning to back peddle a little on that stance. I agree with you--I mean, I still got cold at 500 pounds--but now, it does seem that I shiver a little more often.
DeleteYes Sean I have days like that it's from October to March... I'm a Cannucks! LOL
ReplyDeleteOh my, Richard--From October to March!!! That's a LONG winter. I don't know how you do it. I suppose if it's what you're accustomed to experiencing, you adjust.
DeleteI am sooooo tired of the neverending cold here. Right now it is -22 deg C (-7deg F, I think). Stay warm and rest.
ReplyDeleteKatrin, wow-- -22c...ouch. Please tell me the wind isn't blowing!! I'm not 100% today--but warmer and doing okay. Planning on a really good rest tonight.
DeleteBack when I weighed 196 I had that problem a lot!
ReplyDeleteYeah-- Isn't it interesting? Honestly, I have zero business complaining about the cold--I rarely break out the heavy coat. You're not too far from me--maybe 3.5 hours--so we have roughly the same weather--it can get cold here. I can't imagine the cold in Alaska--and throughout Canada... Can you? I would not do well, I'm fairly certain.
DeleteIt's cold all over the country! That contributes to it I think. Also found when I am tired and/or hungry I get terribly cold. Thank you for your Facebook blog no matter how tired you are Sean!
ReplyDeleteN~
Nancy--you're welcome--and thank you!! I've made a very serious commitment to post something--even if it's a tweets only post, each and every night before turning in. The consistency in this helps keep me centered and focused--brings me back to center, if I feel I'm starting to lean one direction too far. I appreciate your support!
DeleteJust checked my phone and it's a sunny 64 in Oakland. May have to grab a fleece. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, how I remember the weather when I lived in Los Angeles...It was never too hot or too cold... 64 would be chilly, there! A fleece--lol, Margaret! :)
