It's Been a Rough Week.

I'm not about to share anything profound nor am I about to share my deepest darkest secrets so you can put your popcorn away. And frankly, I'm not in the mood to go into any sort of detail or elaboration about my troubles. Maybe I will another day. 

But basically, I'm down. Yes, Liz Strain...the girl who bursts forth with energy and radiates health feels like crap right now. I've had a lot going on and being that I am interconnected, my mood is effecting my drive. Everything has sort of been feeding into each other and I've hit a wall. On top of that...I hurt my back, not while working out...while SLEEPING of course, and I'm in pain. I'm going to the chiropractor and just doing yoga this week. 

My body and my mind have told me to relent and relax. I've learned as this point in my life to listen to what my body is telling me and concede. I am not feeling fun or creative. I'm just blah right now and that's ok. I've been a bundle of fabulosity since getting to Lawton with all my hopes and dreams of a new fun adventure in life and to be honest...it hasn't been that way at all. haha. 

My husband has a job that keeps him away ALL the time and I'm sad about that cause I don't have friends and family and I've over done things to try and make things exciting and I need to just relax. All this "Living" can be exhausting. ;)

So, all this to say that I'm laying low for right now. I won't have fabulous workouts this week. I'm sleeping in. I'm going to bed early. I'm spending relaxing time with my family and I'm inhaling and exhaling and recharging. I've got some things in life I need to focus on right now so that's what I'm doing. 

It'll be a slow week in the world of blogging. I'll keep posting about supplements cause that takes me very little time. Oh and check out my facebook page "My Fit List" for meal ideas throughout the week because it's easy for me to snap a photo and upload it. Anyway, don't expect anything to grand out of me this week. Once my brain is free of garbage, I'll have a lot more to offer. 

On a final note....I hope that you all take the time to do the same for yourselves. I hope you realize that it's ok to be down and it's ok to feel pain and to take the time to deal with it. Stop stuffing things. When things about yourself or your life come up...deal with them. Look them straight in the face and take them head on. Be a warrior in life. But that doesn't always mean being tough, it means being wise. Take your troubles to God and work things out. Don't be afraid of the bad and the ugly. Be bold enough to face them. Experience it. Make sense of it. And then learn and grow from it. That's how we change, right?! And as I always like to scream and shout out really loud.........

"What are we here for? CHANGE!!!!"

Peace out. Stay tuned. Supplement #3 coming at you later.
