**AND ANY AND ALL NEWBIES!! PLEASE FEEL FREE TO SHARE YOUR WEEK WITH US!
**This past week has been another busy week.... with some appointments, and joint family Birthday parties. Overall the week went well, but I got a little off track b/c of the birthdays. My meal planning was off a bit, but I was sure to stay on track and consistent with activity. My sleep was off again due to a few days I got to bed late & then had to get up early the next day.
**Its nice to see the "Winter" months leaving, and be able to move into nicer weather again. It does help to improve my mood more in a positive way. We had a few great days of warm weather, and seems like more will be heading this way in the week ahead. It will be more helpful in staying on track with acitivity and being able to get out more. As well as being able to get my Dog out more for his (and our walks) together. I'll also be starting back to work with My "Senior" clientele/class next week now that they've been vaccinated and opened back up. So will be getting ready for that....Hopefully will have a better idea by the end of this month on what I'll do with my "Regular" clientele/class.
**This weekend is supposed to be a little "cooler" again... So, don't really have any plans to do much or get out and about as of yet anyway. Intentions are to do Two ZOOM workouts with some fellow instructors, and then wherever the day goes from there~ Did really great for the Month of February, and intentions are to continue on just as well for the Month of March.
ENJOY THE WEEKEND~

Hey Healthy Community Buddies!
I have been doing great this week! Being my first month on 7Cups, I am enjoying taking part in activities and getting to know the community!
I have been feeling a little stressed about some tests that are coming up, but nothing too serious! :)
My healthy goal for this month is to start the new self-help book that I bought called "Do Nothing", which I hope is going to help with my perfectionism!
The thing I want to share with you all this week is that YOU. ALL. ARE. AMAZING. and that I really appreciate everything that you do in this community. Being immersed on 7Cups can make you not realise this, but this is an incredible and positive and supportive community, and YOU are a part of it. So thank you ❤️

@PoliteOcean Here is how the past week went. Monday my caretaker took me grocery shopping and also for a walk. Tuesday I spent 6 1/2 hours upgrading my laptop from Windows 7 to Windows 10. The customer service representative didn't tell me I should back up my passwords, but I was able to restore them anyways. The upgrade also hurt my browser performance, but eventually went back to normal after a couple of days. Wednesday I had an acupuncture appointment. My creepy roomie called me an asshole.
My opinion of him is so low I really don't care what he thinks. 
Thursday I had an appointment with my psychiatrist, but she never got the paperwork I sent in, which was a big disappointment. If she can't find it she's going to send it to me a second time so I can fill it out again. Another wasted appointment. 
Friday I was supposed to get a blood test but Deysi was sick, so I couldn't go. It's cool, it was just a routine test, not life and death. I just rescheduled my test for March 19th. For this upcoming week, I'm going grocery shopping on Monday, acupuncture on Wednesday, and to the hair salon on Friday. 
My computer studies are going slowly. Pain permeates every second of every day, so I don't have the energy to do anything more than the basics. I'm living off my corona virus relief checks until I get my settlement.
@Regmo
Hey there Regmo~ Monday sounds like it was a great day for you with a chance to get shopping done and some activity as well! Tuesday sounds like it was very busy for you... I'm not a tech person by any means! So, I can only imagine how much that involved. Thats the sad thing about upgrades sometimes too, is that it doesn't always equate to "better"~
But its good for you that it went back to where you desired it to be. Wednesday sounds like it was quite a day for you between having an appointment and being called names!? Yikes?! Its good that you decided to be the bigger person and that his opinion of you didn't take up any space in your thoughts. Thursday sounds challenging. And thats messed up that you again had yet another wasted appointment. Disappointing for sure~ Sorry to hear that Deysi wasn't feeling well. Its nice that you were so understanding to that, and that you were able to get it rescheduled and that it wasn't anything that needed done immediately. And sounds like you have yet another busy week ahead! It can be so challenging to deal with pain and to not have energy on top of it all. I have been there so I hear what you are saying. But its good you can at least get the basics done.Yes the relief checks have certainly helped.... Something is better than nothing for sure during these times. Sounds like things have been pretty productive for you over-all?! Thats great for you. Thanks for checking in as always and continuing to let us know how things are going for you each week!
**Hey Everyone~ How are you doing this week? I'm exhausted. . .
**This is our FIRST Check-in for the month of MARCH!~ How has this FIRST week been going for you?! Not as productive as I would like. I have been trying to do more self-care
**What is ONE Thing you are MOST looking forward to in this new month ahead?! Warm weather and walk. . .
**What Is one Healthy Living Goal that you'd like to Set for yourself and accomplish this month? It can be any goal that pertains to your Physical, emotional, or mental health?! What steps will you take to help you in achieving or working toward that goal?! I have editing goals, and self-love goals.
**What have been your "Highlights or Struggles" this past week? Struggles. . . dealing with my boyfriend's drunken overemotional ex
**What would "YOU" like to talk about or share with us about your Week?! WE want to hear from "YOU"~
@Rebekahwriter13
Hey Rebekah!
I'm sure its been challenging that you've been feeling so exhausted! Do you feel that its due to something in particular? Or for reasons that you are unsure of?
Its great that despite you are feeling that way, that you have been trying to work on more self-care for yourself! Sounds like you certainly can use it during this time!
I hear you on the "Warm Weather"!.. It will be nice to see things bloom again. And to be able to walk in decent weather.
Sounds like you are making and creating some great goals for yourself~ Great that you are still working on Self-Love. That seems so challenging for many to do. And its so great that you are making it a priority!
Thats crazy that you still have to deal with your boyfriends "Ex". I'm sure its been challenging and definitely not something that you want to think about doing.....What does your Boyfriend have to say about it all? Is there someone that can intervene? Not sure how serious its becoming? But not sure if you both might want to look into finding some help for that situation?! Hope that it all gets resolved soon! Nobody should have to deal with that.
Thanks so much for sharing this week! So glad to see you here. Thanks for letting us know how things are continuing to go for you and keeping us updated.
@PoliteOcean I think my exhaustion is due to the fact I am not doing enough. . . it's like tin man, if he stops moving , he stiffen up. I walked yesterday and I got out to day, so I think that helped a bit. I also have been fight depression and anxiety.
However the weather has been getting nicer.
I’m looking forward to finish studying all of my high school curriculum and get ready for my finals! Pray for me :)
@uzumaki6
How exciting you are at your finals... Is it finals for the year? Or for your schooling altogether?! Either way to me it always signaled the end which meant 'Break Time"! Wishing you all the best on your finals ahead! We are sure you will do great!
@PoliteOcean
Finally I’m finding a bit of time to check in ! Things have been pretty busy lately and I guess I haven’t been as productive/motivate as I should (or could) which make things even busier… I’ve also been procrastinating a bit on some things that I don’t want to do or don’t know how to do. I guess I should take some time to kinda recenter on what I have to do but I seem to lack time at the moment, and when I do have time I’m either unfocused or unmotivated... Thankfully I know it will sort itself out on its own and my motivation/focus comes in cycles!
I’m not sure what I’m looking forward to this month, so far it’s really been busy, between meetings, university trainings, presentations to prepare… I’ve started a new workout program as I finished the previous one, I’m hoping to focus mostly on my cardio as I worked a lot on strength training and noticed that my cardio was quite behind. My mother has also been getting on my nerves a lot recently as she’s been quite pushy about me coming to see her but for some reasons I really feel blocked when trying to plan things, to the point I even dread looking for a train to go visit her (plus it doesn’t help that she’s really been pushy af…)
On the more positive side, I’ve manage to validate quite a few trainings that I need to pass my phd, so it’s reassuring to see that I’m almost done on that aspect! I’ve also met again with a friend and it really felt like taking a break from it all!
Thanks for this check in, take care!
@LinearWaves
Hey there Waves! Its great that you were able to have time to check-in this week. Good to see you! I can totally relate to getting so busy that it feels like you may spend so much time on one set of things that you don't have much time for others. And I know that feeling of "Procrastination" doesn't help much on top of it all. Taking time to recenter yourself and your priorities is always a beneficial thing to do. It certainly cannot hurt! Seems like finding time to recenter yourself might even be an issue. When it gets to that point, then you know its "time" and that you have to "MAKE" the time to do so! But yes, inevitably, things tend to calm down on their own at some point thankfully.~
Thats great that despite that you've been so busy that you've managed to start a new Workout Program! Awesome... What program are you now working on? Is it something in particular, or something that you've put together for yourself?
That sounds diffiuclt that you are still on the odds with your mom. And its challenging when they tend to get "pushy". As nobody (that I know of), likes to feel like they are being pushed into doing something that they aren't feeling up to. When things get like that, and it could just come with "age and time"! lol... But when things tend to get like that or feel like that, I try really hard to separate my feelings about how "she is, or might be", with the over all fact that its my "Mom" (or whoever the family member). However, you also shouldn't have to deal with anything 'toxic' either if it feels like its getting to that point anyway.
Good for you on almost being done with things to pass your phd. I'm sure thats a great weight lifted. And how nice to be able to meet up with friends and getting a break from things and simply having a nice time. We surely need that after the past year, thats for sure.
Thanks for checking in this week , sharing and catching us up on things! Its always great to hear from you!
@PoliteOcean
**What is ONE Thing you are MOST looking forward to in this new month ahead?!
I'm looking to be much fitter and stronger, having more energy by the end of the week. I have started kick boxing, dancing and go to the gym regularly... i can already see the result after a 5 days.
**What Is one Healthy Living Goal that you'd like to Set for yourself and accomplish this month? It can be any goal that pertains to your Physical, emotional, or mental health?! What steps will you take to help you in achieving or working toward that goal?!
i'm looking forward to joining the dance class in public school, i think it's a fun way to boost energy and help me overcome social anxiety.
**What have been your "Highlights or Struggles" this past week?
i invested money to join kickfit class, i have a friend to join both dance and kickfit which helps with my motivation!
**What would "YOU" like to talk about or share with us about your Week?! WE want to hear from "YOU"~
i think I have achived my goal of being active... my next goal is balance diet/meals and better sleep, like more relaxation and mindfuless and rest!
@bubbleBalsam6602
Hey there! Wow! Those are some amazing physical goals that you are setting for yourself!.. And how awesome that you are already seeing a change in such a short time! Thats great! What changes are you seeing for yourself?! Do you wish to share? I love dancing! Dancing is my favorite.... what type of dancing are you doing? And yes, I totally agree! Dancing is a way to get a great energy boost! And to meet others for sure!
And that is sooooo AWESOME that you have a friend that is willing to help motivate you and keep you accountable! Yay!! Sounds like an amazing friend! Great job!
That is also a great thing that you have tackled one of your main goals, and now getting ready to work on others! Balancing your meal and making a plan will be a great addition to your physical health goals and workouts! And getting quality sleep is also a great way to help you to continue to achieve those goals! Sleep is highly "underrated" in our efforts to meet our health goals. And being able to squeeze in some mindfulness and relaxation is the icing at the top!! All of those things together will certainly help you towards a wonderful healthy and amazing lifestyle! AWSOME job to you keep up the great work that you are doing!
