What you may or may not know about me is that my first love has always been and will always be stationery. As much as I love food and exercise and making things, it's stationery that really hits my buttons. Hence I was overjoyed when my housemate and her girlfriend presented me with this for Christmas:
I love keeping journals and I love tracking my exercising so this is just perfect. Look at all its gorgeous sections:
A food calendar telling me what's in season when... perfect for trying to eat locally and seasonally! There's also a list of foods and their nutritional content.
And then look at all the wonderful sections - Personal Goals, Exercise Log, Diet, General Health, Games/Sport, Inspirations. And then hiding behind there are 6 unmarked sections *and* and index.... drool, drool, drool.
It has a great exercise tracker with space for intensity, time, distance/reps, weather, notes... the whole shebang!
A daily diet tracker too! I got into the habit of tracking what I ate towards the end of last year and found it really helpful... I want to get back into it, because it helped me to see some unhealthy habits I'd started to develop.
There's a whole heap more that I could show you, but I think I'll probably have bored you all to death! Needless to say it's utterly wonderful and if any of you are looking for a good fitness journal, I'd definitely recommend this one!
Questions:
Do you keep a fitness/wellness journal?
What are some of your favourite inspirational quotes (I have a whole inspiration section ready and waiting to be filled!)
Oh my gosh, this is fantastic! I didn't even know they made wellness journals! I just bought a weekly diary from them, and I'm half tempted to order this too! I do keep a wellness journal, mainly for the sake of weight loss. I also like to be able to look back and see how far I have come. I didn't lose much weight last year, but I started eating a lot more vegetables and exercising regularly. It allows me to see non-scale progress.
ReplyDeleteI got a similar thing for my mom and dad, the Moleskine wine journal and film journal XD This looks amazing, but Idk if I 1) exercise that much lol and 2) if I could be so organized about it! :P
ReplyDeleteI'm a sucker for cute stationary too. What a great idea to have a wellness journal!
ReplyDeleteThat is fabulous, I want one!
ReplyDeleteI need one of these!
ReplyDeleteI have serious stationery envy now. That is amazing. I've always loved stationery too. I remember using my pocket money as a kid to buy pencils, stencils and scented rubbers (erasers!) from WHSmith.
ReplyDeleteI've kept journals for years documenting things similar to this! I love this journal :) I will be on the look out for one now! Did they happen to say where it came from?
ReplyDeleteOh wow that journal is just AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteI have a wellbeing journal but it isn't anywhere near as thorough as yours!
I love it, I want one :-P
