So, I decided to join the gym. I went and paid, did the orientation, worked out and then BAM the next morning I get up to go work out I have a splitting headache and a stomach bug!! But!!!! I was a trooper and went and worked out. Felt a little better but isn't it funny when you try to start something, one thing after another arises to try and keep you down. Well not this time!!
I also moved into my new house this weekend so I was moving and lifting and working the booty!! But I have noticed how emotions play a huge part in the succes or demise of the whole work-out thing. Been bummed about an "ex", not sure why. He was an "ex" for so many reasons but him finding someone else just slapped me in the face. And she was younger and thinner and he made sure to point this out. Well, he doesn't know me to well because that just pissed me off even more!! Dummy. Anyway, blocked his number, deleted all the info I could ever find on this idiot and dropped another 250 lbs of excess weight. Yea, the dude was shorter than me and had a keg beer belly,,,not that I mind a man of that size, just don't dog me when your ass is bigger!! Dummy.
So,, ,any whooooo, I got up this morning (raining again!!) and was moping around and looked in the mirror at my miserable face and was like "damn girl, get over yourself and live life!" So, I worked out, came to work, went to Wal-Mart and spread around my good cheer. Life is about choices and I choose to be happy.
I did 2 miles on the treadmill in 22 minutes, 3.5 mph and 3 incline,,, that was a fun time,,yea right. Then I did some ab crunches and started cussing myself for all the beer and mexican food over the last few years! But then at lunch when I was eating my lean cuisine lunch, I was pretending it to be mexican food and corona!! I didn't get much pleasure from it. But when I stepped on the scale at work and it wasn't stuck on that horrible number, actually 8 numbers lower,,,I was pretty jazzed. By God, I have the heart, soul and back bone to do anything I want so my quote for the day is "Never have a wish bone where your back bone ought to be"-Clementine Paddleford.
