you're still lapping the people on the couch.
So, starting sometime in January, my bff Joice and I decided we wanted to start working out! My doctor said that aerobics would be good for my pain and plus I have gained A LOT of weight in the past year. Seriously, I have never been 200 or more. I stepped on the scale and it said 205, I literally cried. I felt horrible about myself!!! So we started out on the Wii fitness, then started doing a little jogging, then we found zumba for Wii! That is a GREAT workout! I feel accomplished after 20 minutes, 2 bottles of water and I'm pouring sweat!! I was doing pretty well! I had lost 7 lbs and was back under 200, which I was pretty darn excited about!!!
But then I ended up with this stupid walking pneumonia and I stopped working out. It's been 2 weeks and I can feel that I've gained back everything plus some. I'm upset with myself, and feeling horrible again! I'm scared to step on my scale to see how much I've gained. But I really want to get started again. I just need motivation. Joice stopped when I stopped.... Even though I'm not quite sure why. But I keep telling her that we need to get back on it. We just haven't yet. We talk about it, but that's as far as it goes. Why is it so hard to start something back up after you haven't done it for a couple of weeks??
Anyways, I did go for a walk today. About a mile. Only because I needed to go to the store and my car is busted right now. Lol how's that for motivation?? I'm just really hoping I can get back in the right mind set to lose weight and get healthy. All the extra poundage also doesn't help the fibro. So it would be an all around good plan for me!! Right now I'm just gonna say a little prayer to Isis that I get my mojo back!!
Goodnight Bloop!!

Oh, if only we lived close! I was doing Zumba on the Wii, too, and it was showing magnificent results until I tripped in the road and was laid up for a while. Never did get back on that horse, and I really should.
Don't feel bad, like I said, most of us do the same! It's only more recently I've started paying more attention to certain sections of specific types of sites. Otherwise who has the time to sit & read gobs & gobs of legal mumbojumbo that is mostly totally indecipherable? blurgh. lol. So if it's a site where I'd be posting anything, I always look at info regarding copyrights, who holds them, if the site then lays claim to the material, etc. =)
