another day, another missed opportunity
to go to the gym!
I'm LOSING MY MIND in my house! I'm pulling at my hair to find things to do in the house (it is WAY too hot to do anything outside besides water my plants!)- I've started scrapbooking wedding photos, cleaned my house from top to bottom, gone thrift store shopping for some diy projects (starting an old frame collage above the bed), and after I go home this weekend and grab my supplies, I'll start painting again next week! AND we're bringing up DH drum set, so I'll be teaching myself how to play as well... and I still end up sitting on my butt for a few hours at least! blech!
yet, with all the things I'm trying to do, I still can't seem to get to the gym!! I use to go almost every day, and since the wedding I'm lucky if I get there once a week! what the heck!
Re: another day, another missed opportunity
ugh, it's been getting worse! I use to care so much about going to the beach and looking good in a bikini.. now, I think.. well, I'm already married! who cares if I have love handles!
Not anymore though! I'm going in the morning from now on! Every morning!
Maybe we can start a weekly post where we all make a workout goal and then on Friday we can all comment with whether or not we've made it! It might help give us back a little motivation? Eh?
This is me as well.
You've heard what I've done, not what I've been through.
If you were in my shoes, you'd fall the first step."
I vote yes to the exercise support group. I've been slacking big-time, and it showed when I stepped on the scale this morning. I'm 3 lbs heavier than I was for the wedding (that's a big deal when you're not quite 5'3" and have a small frame-- my jeans are tight!).
See, our problem is that we bought this treadmill and canceled our gym membership. Smart idea, right? We'll run all the time now! No time wasted driving there and back! No excuses! No monthly bill!
And then our air conditioner died, our apartment complex has done NOTHING ABOUT IT FOR A MONTH AND A HALF, and the temperatures soared into the 90's with oppressive humidity levels. So, yeah. Running not happening much. I took my laptop into the bedroom the other night (we have a window A/C unit in there) and did Pilates. But I need cardio...
This is me, too! I'm not even 5'1" (even though I claim to be!) and so even a pound or two is hard to hide, and even harder to lose! It stinks being so little : (
I say we start the support group! I'll put a post up on Monday where we can all write our goals for the week, and then Friday night I'll put up another one where we can write in if we made it!
yay!
