A new interest via /r/gratitude

I had trouble sleeping last night I ate something with artificial sweeteners in it and it wrecked my tummy. I usually don’t let myself scroll my phone at night especially in bed but I went ahead and let myself scroll Reddit for a while. I surprised myself at how calm I was knowing I wasn’t going to get my usual quality of sleep so I’m grateful for that for sure. But while I was scrolling I read a post about how beneficial weight lifting is for women post menopause and it inspired me to look more into it. I’ve had to stop doing my favorite cardio and miss is but if I can just replace it with something that isn’t as hard on my body I’m down with that! And I’ve already got some dumbbells! I’m excited to develop a new addition to my morning routine. A little hesitant because Ive never really lifted weights before. Ive done resistance bands stuff. I’m confident though because I’ve been doing a lot of work over the past year learning how to properly align my body during certain moves and I’m sure I’ll be able to learn this as well. Here’s to starting a new chapter!!!
