Gallimh's Journal, 30 January 2012

So much for the mini-goal I set myself... LOL the closest I got to going on the treadmill was buying a NEW treadmill!!! My existing one is 10 years old (el cheapo at K-Mart) and while technically, there's absolutely nothing wrong with it, I want a new one. I want one that actually does an incline and has a fan... (all the extra bells & whistles would be nice too).

So I happened to spot a gold box deal on Amazon yesterday for one so after doing a little research (i.e. reading reviews for last year's model), I splurged and bought it! Woo hoo! Now, hopefully this will be the kick I need to actually USE it!

Buying a new treadmill certainly eased the guilt of not exercising this weekend. I better not make it a habit... ;-)

The trick to any home exercise equipment is to not use it to store laundry... Good luck with the new one!! ;o)

That is a good first step, a good motivator! When I have been face ro face with a "no-no" I ask myself, do I want that hamburger or do I want to be healthy...and so far the skinny, healthy is winning. The healthy will last a lot longer than the pizza or not excersizing. I hope this helps a little!

Yes Zippy; I'm terrified this one will turn into another dust-gatherer... or it can be a motivator to finally turn that spare room into a gym... that I will actually use! Can't hurt to at least try, right? Robin, I don't know about healthy lasting a lot longer than pizza... My health (fitness level) has gone to the dogs but the pizza is still loyally with me (albeit in the form of fat on my thighs!) LOL. Yes, of course I'm kidding and I know what ya mean :-)
