So it's turkey day here in Canada. I am actually happy because I have the day off! I was able to avoid all fattening turkey dinners.
I missed my turkey craving but I will make up for it at Christmas. LOL
I am thankful for some things in my life.
-My mother
-My doggies
- The great support from lovely peeps on my blog!!
Even thought this weekend was a bit of a struggle, I took the time to realize my life is not all bad. I have to be thankful I am alive & no major health issues & all my limbs in perfect working condition and that I am finally loosing weight to better myself.
So I went to the gym Friday for the first time.
Saturday I took the dogs for a walk/ small jog.
Sunday I decided I was gonna head that way alone. In my mind I told myself if there was more then 4 cars in the parking lot I would not get out. I got there and there was ZERO cars in the lot. So in I go!!
I did cardio for 30 mins.
This morning the lady I am trying out the gym with called to see if I wanted to meet her there this morning. I actually agreed... I hate mornings and working out so put them together is pure hell.
It actually was not that bad. I only did another 30 mins but hey this is the most I have done ever.
The gym was actually busy and I felt uncomfortable a couple of times, but I learned my lesson I am just gonna go in the evening and weekends. Not holiday mondays when everyone is off and is overstuffed with turkey! LOL
I am really proud I am actually not minding this at all... Maybe the novelty will wear off but for some reason I don't think so!

Way to go for making it to the gym! I giggled at how you checked for number of cars before going in. I do that all the time! I actually live across the street so I can gauge when is best and curse every time I leave for work because it is so empty then!! Keep up the good work and enjoy Turkey Day.
i'm proud of you too!! 30 minutes a day is awesome and you know it!!
xo
Good for you! I was a former gymophobe as well. I have been going regularily for 3 months now and I really enjoy it. Remembering how hard I work on the treadmill helps me keep away from junk food in the evenings!
