Today marked a small milestone. I have been working out five days straight! That is saying a lot for me. I always give up after day three. On day three, I an sore and I talk myself out of going again. Or on day three, I am stressed, and I tell myself, you don't need this. But this time on day three, I did 10 minutes more. This time on day three I was able to finish without thinking about what others were thinking. I realized something today. I can do it. If I keep telling people I am working out that is like a silent motivator for me. I can't lie. Never could. My face tells it all, I start to sweat and I can't look you in the eye, my voice starts to quiver, can't lie. So if I tell someone that "no, I can't pick up your dry cleaning, I am at the gym." I have to get up and go, or else it would be a lie. Strange how my mind works, right? But it does!
Day five! I did it. 360 days to go!
The "gymies came up to me again. I was talking to the front desk lady and the guy came up to us and said, "you want to try a protien shot in your water?" I told him no, I like my water. But then he said, " because you excercise everyday, you really should be drinking a protien mix it helps to regenerate your tissue......blah blah blah....." So I said, fine I will try it. He poured some of this powder in my water and said, "that will be $2.00 dollars." ! Really? "You did'nt say it was going to cost me." (duh sylvia!) I don't have my purse, or money, as I patted my sides. (who takes a wallet to the gym? okay okay, maybe some people do.) He said "that's okay we can add it to your dues."...one time, right? "Yea, but your really going to like it." maybe, but not for $2.00 bucks a shot.
Anyways....
