And after a week (Ok, maybe two. . .) of Jason joining the gym & not liking myself & feeling less than amazing, I joined the same gym :) And yesterday I had my first workout as a gym member.
And yes, I am wondering what in the world I've done! I can't get to a gym 3X/week (hello $20 off with our insurance plan!) and go to work and sit on the couch & do nothing. Wait, I can.
There are a few goals that I want to achieve during this time & I think I can actually do this. Jason has been a great support & is working out 2x a day just so he is able to go with me while I'm still new at this & feeling a little insecure.
But after my first really good workout (in quite some time), I felt good & I know what Elle Woods was talking about in Legally Blonde! And I want some more of that happy feeling!
So, if my insurance company won't get me to workout at least 3 times a week, maybe knowing that you all know will help motivate me! So, below are some goals that I really want to reach. Shoot me an email, or send me a text, or comment with well wishes & nudges in the right direction. And if you see me, ask how it's going! Hopefully I'll answer with an "awesome!", but if I don't, hopefully I'll at least be trying really really hard!
1. Lose 10lbs by the end of march
2. Feel better about myself physically, mentally, emotionally
3. I want to be able to wean myself off of my anxiety/depression meds by the end of this year
As always, thank you for reading! And please, follow my blog! I'm kind of fun ;)
I know how you feel Lauren. We bought one of those Nurti-bullet things and since Christmas I've replace a meal with only whole foods. It's made all the difference!
ReplyDeleteOh, and working out is like drinking beer. At first its disgusting, but the more you try it, the more you'll like it! One day you might even crave it! ;)
Oh man, I hope it gets better! It's not too bad right now (thankfully!) but i'm also trying to not complete hate it right away :)
