My 90 day challenge

Starts 26th April, 2024

Introduction

The point of this challenge is for me to get back into the groove of studying, and also to fix my life a little bit since its a very big mess right now. I'm using this place to document everything, from pretty notes to messy journals and an even messier room.

My Life Areas + Goals

Education - To Finish the syllabus I'm setting for myself in these 90 days

Physical Health - Building Strength and flexibility

Mental Health - Practising good coping mechanisms and mindfulness

Hobbies - Learning how to draw

Self-care - Taking time for myself

Knowledge (this is for non-study things that interest me) - Learning German, some coursera/edx courses

Personal growth - Developing daily routines that are sustainable

Environment (Mostly my room) - Having a clean room and a daily/weekly cleaning routine to keep it clean

Dailies (Floor goals)

These are the minimum I want to do everyday

Waking up before 8am

Having a simple morning routine

Morning journaling

15 minutes of intentional movement, doesn't have to be a full workout

10 pages of non-fiction reading

30 mins of learning something new

Meditation

These are going to be updated as i go on, but this is all for now.

Day 6/90 of practicing artt

My attempt at coloring/rendering I started this yesterday, but I got busy, so I continued this study today. I hadn't colored/ fully rendered anything in a long while so surprisingly this was okay, after doing this I realized I should practice painting in values first I heard that really helps with this process, plus I watched about three tutorials for this one, I needed all the help I could get after not doing this in a while. Also, I found the solution to the back pain sitting with pillows for my back, so this piece was done with less back pain

Days 7-12 of 90

I've had a friend visiting from out of town over the past few days so I didn't follow my normal workout schedule. However, I still got some good workouts in on a couple of the days!

On days 6-8 I didn't do any workouts, which was fine because it was the weekend and I wanted to give myself a break anyway after working out for 5 days in a row. And on day 9, I ended up hiking for 4 hours straight! It was a relatively mild hike, but still, 4 hours is a lot. My friend and I hadn't intended to hike for that long, but it all worked out. And I'm happy with it - it was a great workout. On day 10, I did a much less strenuous walk in a park for about an hour and a half. And then no workout on day 11.

Today is day 12, and I want to get back into my normal workout routine. Especially since I haven't done any physical therapy exercising for the past 6 days. I'm planning to head back to the gym today to get back into the swing of things.

My friend suggested I purchase some ankle weights to use on my surgical leg, so that I can continue to work on strengthening it even when I'm just walking around the house. I think that's a great idea, so I'll probably be buying some ankle weights soon.

EXERCISE SESSION

Stationary bike, 2 mi, level 4 difficulty, 10 mins (mainly using surgical leg)

Elliptical, 0.5 mi, level4-5 incline, 10 mins

PT block A

Treadmill 0.5 mi, level 4 incline, 10 mins

FOOD

I did buy some healthier snacking options, and I've actually been enjoying a healthy smoothie for breakfast! It's nice because I don't always have a big appetite in the morning, but it's easy to just drink a smoothie while I'm waking up.

My smoothie ingredients:

a small handful of fresh spinach (I'll probably switch to frozen spinach soon, just because it's a little easier)

~1/2 a cup of plain greek yogurt

1 banana

~1/4 cup of frozen strawberries

~1/4 cup of frozen peaches

~1/2 cup of water

It's great because I'm still getting some good protein and nutrients from the greek yogurt and the spinach, but it also still tastes decent because the banana sweetens everything.

On a separate note, as much as I hate calorie counting, I think I'm going to have to do it in a loose way for a little while. NOT for the purposes of restricting, but just to make sure that I'm actually getting enough calories / nutrients into my body. For example, I noticed that the smoothie in the morning is nice and filling, and that means that I haven't been eating anything else in the morning. Which is all fine and good if I'm actually getting enough calories into my body, but if not, then I'm actively working against my ability to gain muscle mass. So that's why I think I'm going to have to calorie count, just for a bit until I have the ability to eyeball foods and approximate their calories so that I can make sure I'm getting enough.

Update: I did track my calories for the day, and after dinner I was at 1,908 calories, which is great. I will note that I ate a full breakfast, lunch, and dinner, which I don't always do. So it seems like as long as I eat three proper meals, I should be fine. I'll likely be over 1,908 by the end of the night because I'll probably have a snack this evening, but that doesn't bother me. I want to build muscle, so keeping my food intake around 2,000ish calories (for the days when I'm working out) seems right.

SELF CARE

By the way, when I was at the grocery store, I ended up picking up a bag of Dr. Teal’s Pink Himalayan Mineral Soak. I’ve been getting more into taking baths lately, and this looked like something good to try. I ended up using it after my 4 hour hike, and it was ✨glorious✨. I just added in a cup and a half of the mineral soak into my running bath water, and the instant I stepped in, it felt like my aches were just getting soothed away. The mineral soak has epsom salt in it, which I assume was what made the difference. And it must have really helped because my legs didn’t even feel particularly sore the next day, despite the fact that I’m really not used to hiking for that long. So, mineral soaks for the win. 

MEASUREMENTS

Chest: 36.5

Waist: 31

Hips: 40

Left bicep: 10.75

Right bicep: 11.25

Left thigh (3 inches down): 22

Right thigh (3 inches down): 23.5

Weight: 150.1

BMI: 24.1

Weight has technically gone down by a couple of pounds since I started weighing myself, but I don't trust it because that kind of weight fluctuation could be due to anything (hormonal weight gain/loss due to cycle fluctuation, water retention, etc.). So I'm not putting any kind of stock into the weight number until it's been several weeks and I can see the overall trend. Also, I had a fairly significant hair cut a few days ago, so that might have also played a small factor into the weight difference. Who knows.

One Dress a Day Challenge

October: White Redux

Addams Family Values / Joan Cusack as Debbie Jellinsky

I've been seeing a bunch of memes about the transition from September to October today, so this seems like a good choice to start out the month. Debbie wears this white dress during her early days with the Addamses, while she's winning them over with her sweet-as-pie persona. She subtly projects efficiency by suggesting an old-fashioned nurse's uniform--perhaps also with just a touch of nautical style with the buttons and the hint of a sailor collar.

Day 5 of 90 - Gotta Fuel Up

I ended up rolling out my legs yesterday using a large rolling pin, of all things, because that’s what I had on hand. And I think it helped! This morning my legs definitely felt used, but they didn’t feel nearly as sore as they did yesterday morning. My abs, on the other hand, feel as sore as ever. Is there a way to roll out ab muscles? 😅

FOOD (again)

I realized that I do actually need to come up with a food plan. Apparently, the way I was eating before was fine for the amount of energy I was expending, but now that I’m working out for about an hour every day, I really need to consume more calories in order to keep my energy levels up. But I don’t want to just eat more unhealthy snacks, like chips and cookies (which is what I currently have on hand). So, I’m going to need to do some research to find some healthy, nutritious snacks that I can grab throughout the day that will help keep me energized. Because I’m really more of a snack-er than a 3-full-meals-and-that’s-it kind of person. I usually don’t eat all that much in one sitting, so I like to graze. Which will be fine if I have nutritious foods that are fueling me to graze on.

For example, yesterday we had run out of eggs, and I hadn't made myself the chicken wing dish yet that I was planning to, so for breakfast and lunch I ate a ham and cheese sandwich without the bread (as in... just slices of ham and sliced of cheese). My thought regarding the bread was white bread = empty carbs, so white bread =/= healthy eating. So that's why I omitted it, since I'm trying to be more conscious about what I'm using to fuel my body. But it turns out that if I remove a carb from my diet, then I need to replace it with another carb - even if it is a healthier carb. Because I basically just didn't really eat any carbs for most of the day yesterday, and then felt exhausted in the afternoon. So yeah... I need to come up with a plan.

Healthy, quick foods that I am more likely to eat (getting ideas from this article):

Fruit

Mixed nuts

Eggs

Milk

Oatmeal

Green smoothie (I need to buy some spinach that I can have on hand to blend into my smoothies to get some more nutrients into my diet.)

Plain greek yogurt (to go in the smoothie - will add protein to my food intake)

Apple with peanut butter

Bananas

Chocolate milk (for post-workout recovery)

More ideas here in the Blogilates 90-day meal plan

Yeah... after doing some research, and especially reading this article, I think it's likely that the fatigue I've been experiencing over the past few days has been a result of low blood sugar and not eating / drinking enough. But now I know, and I will work on building up healthier habits in that arena. I don't want to impede my body's progress toward health and wellness by not giving it the proper fuel it needs.

Also, I'm recalling the fact that I didn't have a period for the three months that I did my last 90 day journey, back in 2019. At the time, I remember thinking, "huh, that's weird" and just chalking it up to something I heard about female athletes sometimes not getting a period when they were in an intense training phase. I figured my body was just confused about how much I was working out. But I'm realizing now that I think it was actually more serious than that. This article has more info, but basically, losing your period "can be a sign of exercise-induced anorexia related to energy deprivation from not eating enough, from exercising too much, or from a combination of the two," and has some pretty serious side effects, including loss in bone density and loss in muscle mass. Oof. I guess I really should have paid more attention. Also, it seems like I wasn't eating enough even back then, if my body was reacting this way.

So, new plan:

Hydrate well before and after working out

Eat a snack or meal with complex carbs and protein pre-workout (either a snack 30 mins before the workout session, or a full meal 2-3 hours before)

Eat three full meals + 3 carb-rich snacks each day

Eat within 30 to 60 minutes post-workout. Post-workout meals should be high in carbs and protein. (examples include sandwich _ fruit, bagel with peanut butter + chocolate milk, energy bar + yogurt with granola, salad and fruit, spaghetti with meatballs, etc.) If I can't eat a full meal right away, then eat a snack immediately and then a full meal later.

Consume enough calcium every day (sources include milk, yogurt, cheese, leafy greens, and calcium-fortified orange juice)

EXERCISE SESSION

Today's session was fairly brief, as I just didn't have the spoons to do a longer session. It was only about 20 minutes, but I'm proud of myself for still working out instead of having an "all-or-nothing" mindset.

20 minutes, abs-focused pilates:

Beautiful abs

10 minute lower ab workout

MEASUREMENTS

I know I said I wasn’t gonna do this, but I was curious, so I weighed myself this morning before I had eaten anything. It came up 152.2 lbs, so I guess my baseline is more like 152. Good to know. NOW I’m putting away the scale for at least another week or so.

Also, my measurements aren't changing day-to-day (as to be expected), so I'm going to stop measuring every day and move to weekly measuring.
