The Gym

I've had a few workout false starts since my surgery - I'd go back to the gym and then stop after once or twice. Life is just busy enough that it's easy to make excuses and skip the exercise.

My husband asked the other day if I wanted to go back to the gym, and offered to juggle his schedule to cover kid duty and make working out easier for me. So I really don't have a decent excuse anymore.

Tomorrow morning I'll be at the gym at 6 am. I have a trainer appointment to make sure my lazy butt actually gets there.

Wish me luck.

  3. Think of it as time for yourself. Think how lucky you are that you GET to go work out with a trainer! I've started looking at the gym this way, and it's really helped me get there day after day!

    Good luck!

  4. Good luck doll...there must be a full moon because I've decided to get February off on the right foot and tomorrow night am going with DH to his spinning class. I'm not participating yet...just getting my membership in order so I can join him on Saturday. It's been 9 months since being banded and the only exercise involved in losing my 70lbs has been walking. Trouble is...I've been stuck at that 70lb mark for 6 weeks with no movement. It's finally occurred to me that I need to take it to the next level if I'm ever going to lose this last 15-20 lbs.
    Good luck to us both, cupcake.

  8. Good luck! I wish I could go to a gym but its a no go right now. Instead I have weights and and elliptical to greet me every evening when I walk in the door. Have fun!
