Yesterday was a bad day, I think. I had no motivation, and I was over stressed. It culminated into an argument with my husband. But by the end of our discussion, I had tearfully confessed all my stresses. And he understood, and promised to help me through my troubles. I felt much better about letting it all go.
This morning, I woke up raring to go!
I took my DD to preschool, and walked my mile and a half. Which brings me to the actual reason I wanted to journal today.
It's in the low 50s out, and I was out in light pants and a t-shirt. One of the other mothers asked me if I wasn't cold, to which I replied I was about to walk and in the sun it wasn't so bad. But then I admitted I was a bit cold, and we both laughed. As I walked, I thought of some things I wish I had replied with!
Many people exercise overdressed or in high temperatures (think hot yoga), because they feel they lose weight this way. And they do. Water weight.
I've read that it is better to work out (or do most things) in a much cooler temperature. This is because in addition to the calories burnt during the exercise itself, your body works to maintain your temperature.
In The 4 Hour Body, Ferriss suggests that sitting on the couch with an ice pack on the base of your neck to be beneficial and calorie burning - while you sit and watch tv. I find this to be a poor man's cryotherapy chamber. It's something I've been meaning to implement. If I do, I'll let y'all know how it works.
In short, I will continue to do my walk/jogs in light clothing as long as it is safe to do so. It feels good anyways.
