My feet, they are a’draggin’

Published by maxiegirl at 2:54 pm under Exercise, Feeding the body Edit This

My feet are dragging this morning about going to Curves.  I’m in a weird spot. 

  • It’s lunch time,
  • I don’t dare exercise hungry,
  • I don’t dare exercise right after a big meal,
  • I really want to go out to lunch today,
  • I don’t like going over the lunch hour because so many are trying to exercise during their lunch break.

I know these are small potatoes beside the next reason,

  • I don’t feel like exercising today.

Awwww!  Poor me!  I have to exercise, don’t I?

  • I want to feel better,
  • I want my knee pain to stay away,
  • I want to look better,
  • I want to lose weight
  • I don’t want to give up on my goal of a full year at Curves.

I’ll go.  I’ll even go during the lunch hour.  I’ll eat a snack bar, exercise, and then go out to lunch.  It’s doable, but today I just had to whine a little before I left.

    I am afraid that if I don’t exercise I’ll end up in a wheel chair. I was pretty close to that this summer, but decided to fight it with exercise.

    Good luck to you. I’m simply not a self starter.
