I hope everyone had a successful weekend.
We met our student mentor at the North Campus Gym on Saturday. He showed us how to use the cardio machines, but also some good toning the core moves...which we felt yesterday & today!!!
I started running Friday night. Never in my life did I think I would be able to run. Our mentor suggested running, one way to help lose the weight.
But I went to the gym, started speed walking on the treadmill and thought, why not try to run. So I went for 5 minutes at a time, 2 minutes walking - on & off for an hour. When I was done I felt exhausted & fantastic at the same time, but I DID IT!!!
Never in my life did I think of going to the gym as fun - I couldn't relate to those type of people...BUT I really do enjoy it - especially how I feel when I leave the gym, I now see why people like going.
Plus, being able to put clothes on that used to fit me years ago is always a huge incentive to continue going:)
The only thing I need now is another income to help with the new clothes I will need to buy as I continue to shed the pounds. I guess there could be worse things in life:)
I hope everyone has a great week. Keep up the good work!
