On a typical day I just put on my attire for the day, slap on some mascara, and I'm raring to go. But, today I had nowhere to go. I thankfully slept in until 9 and lounged about in my PJ's for some time. Sure, I got a little homework done, but, in general, I just vegged. I vegged well into the evening.. It wasn't until a greasily home cooked meal was provided by my Mother that I realized.. "Girl, you need to exercise." It came to me while I was looking in the mirror, de-greasing my hands from the meal's french-fried goodness. Just to be frank, my good people of Blogger, I am nowhere near skinny. I'm pudgy, I have love-handles, and my thighs are just.. well, let's not get into that. I can't remember the last time I have ever been comfortable with my body. So, basically, I've always thought of myself as a lazy blob of a couch-potato. I decided that today I would change it all! So what if I've tried this countless times before, let's give it another round, shall we? Quickly, so that I wouldn't lose my sudden enthusiasm for sweating buckets, I strapped on my running shoes and made my sister-in-law tag along with me. No real stretching, no plan of action, just.. jogging!
Unfortunately, you know what? I'm just not in as good of shape as I used to be. After only a thirty minute jog, I came home nearly dead. My heart was beating so fast, I could feel it pulsating in my head. Candy even did better than I did! And she smokes! :C All in all, it was fun to get out there again. I'm hoping I'll be able to stick to this routine, even for just a little while. Maybe I'll even post pictures of me and this new fitness journey throughout it's course. Cheers to a nice.. winter body?
Until next time..
