R.E.P.A.I.R Sanity Question

[jsylves]

I plan to start the REPAIR program on November 3 (I'm planning it out so that Chrismas week lands on the eat, eat, eat week ).

It's taken me over a week to come to terms with not exercising for 3 weeks. I'm a 6 or 7 day a week kinda girl right now.

Now I'm having a REALLY difficult time letting go of my lunch time walk every day. I really don't consider it exercise. It's more a dose of sanity during my day. Do you think continuing to walk at lunch will completely kill the point of the REPAIR program or could it just be considered my NEAT?

Thanks for your thoughts...

It is low grade movement. I don't see this as any sort of problem unless that walk is 45 mins and up a straight hill, i think you are fine.

Also just remember, the point of the break is relaxing and resting as much as possible in body and mind. If not having the walk wigs you out that much, then it defeats the purpose no? So make those kind of calls like that based on that kind of thinking.

Woooohoooo!!!! Thank you! Leigh. You just made my day!

I can't wait to start my daily journal once I start REPAIR.

I'm actually listening to one of your podcasts right now.
