I Didn't Wait ... Just Do It!

After a lot of making excuses in my head, I logged off the computer and jumped in the shower.  But it must have been stewing in the back of my brain, because I turned my computer back on, grabbed my wallet and logged in to join Planet Fitness!  It's close enough to work I can dash over during my lunch hour and get in a workout.  It's a bit of a drive on a weekend, but .... totally worth it.

It felt good to be back in a gym atmosphere.  I didn't realize that it had become such a part of my life when I was going 3-5 times a week a couple years back.  When 24-Hour Fitness moved out of the building next door to my job, it really hurt my efforts.  Well, because it was *right there*, there were very little excuses to not go to the gym, so I went.   And now, I'm back at it.  I'd like to say I'm really excited about it, but ya know, it IS a lot of work, but it's the kind that feels good.  So yeah, it's a good thing :)

Just did the treadmill today, wanted to get a feel for how my body parts would take it.  1.54 miles in 30 minutes.  Not the pace I'd grown accustomed to back in the day ... but I'm also carrying the 30+ lbs I lost.  So today's a new beginning, a fresh start!

I even bought a new bag to carry my gym stuff - something new and trendy, not the old "boy" kind of bag I've been carrying since 2004.  lol  Yeah.  Why replace it if it still works??  That's my normal mantra, but I thought if I had a spiffy bag, I'd be more upbeat about working out.   Mind games, if you will.  hahaha

No Judgement.
I belong!

so now .....  I gotta "Just Do It".
