Week 1 or Weak One?
I'm not someone who enjoys exercise at all! But I'm tired of feeling tired! I want to sleep without medical assistance! Not feel so weak - no muscles! Soooo...I decided to hire a personal trainer to get motivated about getting into better shape. I convinced my friend SV to join me (insert evil laugh). Monday night was our first session and Angela told me we were just going to assess where my body is to start. I'm here to tell ya I am fricking out of shape! I seriously couldn't run for 2 minutes or do 1 REAL sit up! I feel like a total weakling! But it is a place to start - the ultimate "before" picture! I have worked out this week more than I have in the last 6 months. My stomach hurts, arms are sore and my thighs are still on fire from the crunches Angela had me do! Did I mention my ass hurts when I try and sit on the toilet?? I know, I know...TMI! SV and I decided that brutal honesty/no BS would be the requirement for this to work - so food choices, workouts and self-esteem/love are out there, no lying to each other or ourselves. Stay tuned...

Oh, Shan... You are my role model right now. Ever since my surgery, my strength and health have been declining. I am embarrassed by the things I can't do. I don't enjoy exercise, and I'm always to damn tired to go. Between work and Tristan and the house, I feel like there's never enough time. Plus it doesn't help that I LOVE baked goods and chocolate. Maybe if you can do it, I can too. :-) Keep it up, girl!!
