Okay, so I have had this blog for ages now, but have never gotten further than that! Today I decided to put my first few words in. What prompted me? My friend from over the seas, Camille McLelland. Thanks Cam, I do need a shove every now and again.
Today I decided to stay at home, Mark has gone to Durban for a week of meetings. I was supposed to go with, but will be going through with him tomorrow, and will stay there for the rest of the week. The reason I stayed behind, was that I need to go to gym. I have just started a programme, and because of the hecticness of the past week, have only been to one session! So before I leave it for another week, I decided that I just have to go today.
Last week, I did the cardio work out. Well, it sure told me a lot of things:
1. I nearly died.................
2. I thought I was going to die
3. I am not in any shape of fitness.
My motivation for this programme is that at 45 I have decided that I need to take hold of my physical side of my being, and get it into shape. Its really the only area of my life that needs work, and judging from the workout last week; a lot of it!
A start is all that it needs, so its done.
I have seen two amazing results on other people just lately. One being a friend of about the same age, who is looking like a teenager! No, really, she is looking gorgeous. And then the other, is my very own daughter, Paige. She too is looking stunning, and I just have to give it a try. I've tried the cutting down on eating thing, but really that does nothing for me, because my life is too sedentary, I sit all day. I need to be more energised, so a workout, is the thing, that I think is going to change my life.
I dont expect it to be easy at first, but am hoping that by some miracle, those endorphines that everyone talks about will kick in and make me want to keep on going back! Please, please please kick in soon endorphines!
