**The Gym**

The first thing that popped into my head when I woke up this morning was having to go to the gym.  My thoughts were this - Jeez, I opened my big mouth and said I would go to the gym.  Why did I open my big mouth??  I don't want to go to the gym! What if it's really crowded?  OMG, I don't want to workout in front of a bunch people!  I'll get all winded and sweaty and gross!!  It will be so embarrassing!!  But if I don't go I have to post that on my blog and look like a big loser!!   Yea, so I laid there for about 15 min. stressing over having to go the gym, but then I thought - OMG, shut the f**k up, get up, and go the gym!!!!!  So, I did.  And, yes, there were quite a few people there, and, yes, I got winded, and sweaty and gross.....but I lived through it, and it was fine.

I did 15 min. on the treadmill, 15 min. on the elliptical, and 15 min. on the bike.  In the end, I was glad I went, and I'm going back tomorrow!!!

  1. Good for you! I've been so bad about that, the last 2 times I went I couldn't do what I wanted to in the time I was able to commit to it so I gave up. : (

  2. I've decided my goal is to go M-F. It's totally doable. I can fit, at least, a half hour in each day - I know I can. It's just a matter of making myself get there. We have a busy day tomorrow, but I am going to go to the gym at 9:30, and get it done and out of the way for the day!!!!

  3. I'm glad you went, too. I know you feel a lot better that you went. That makes me happy.

    Hugs on your outstanding efforts and great decisions. :)

  4. Thanks, Jen. We could start meeting there for, at least, a half hour when you can, but I'm going to be trying to go in the morning, and I know that probably won't work for you!
