About 5 days into February, I made a little decision to concentrate on exercise this month. While losing weight is a huge priority, what I really need to do at moment is gain back some the fitness level that I lost. Being physically fit is a goal for me, and while I'm not preternaturally athletic, years of dance classes has made body movement important. I like to be active when it doesn't hurt. I like to jump and bend and stretch when I'm not impeded by weakness of fatness. Also, my blood pressure is a little high and I can't have that. I'm too young for that nonsense.
I did a long workout at the gym on Saturday night (forever alone), but skipped on Sunday, which was purely out of laziness. I couldn't go on Monday because I had this work function to attend, but I did finally hurl myself out of my bed at 8:30 last night to do 45 minutes on the elliptical while watching The Biggest Loser. It feels good to be a little sore today, but I know doing the elliptical really isn't that much exercise. I'm getting a bonus check soon. I attend to take that little amount of money and go and hire a personal trainer. I can't really afford it, but I know it's something I have to do. I'll let you know how it goes.
