OK. I exercised a lot this past week and I'm finding that...I like it. Woah, back up. Me, like exercising? It's like an alternate universe. Maybe I should explain. I like the way I feel after I exercise--sweaty, energized, less-stressed, accomplished. That's what I like. My friend and I were shoe shopping and I was bending over to try on another pair and she made the comment, " You're bending over easier. You're not breathing heavy or anything!" I didn't know that I did that! I was more embarrassed than excited. I had no idea that it had gotten that bad. I'm 25 not 65! Thank God I haven't delayed this any longer!
I've noticed also that my body is changing. The flab of fat under my back bra strap is decreasing at an amazing pace and my arms are sitting closer to my side. These things are exciting. Things that we work for are more satisfying from what I hear. If this is the case, I think that this is going to be the most satisfying thing I've done in my 25 years on this earth. Even getting my Masters degree wasn't this strenuous--mentally or physically!
Got the Jillian Michaels Fat Blast and Metabolism Booster workout tape and it totally kicked my butt. I got through 39 minutes of it and had to stop. When I am able to get through the whole thing, I think I'll buy myself a happy or something. That will be an accomplishment!
