Tonight, my workout buddy and good friend Lori and I swallowed our collective pride and attended boot camp at the YMCA. The good news is we survived without humiliating ourselves. It is embarassing at how out of shape I have become in only 55 years! UGH! This is going to be a long process but it will be worth every bead of sweat, aching muscle, crunch (not the Captain variety), lunge, and step when I am healthier and have my heart in better shape. Lori and I both learned a valuable lesson tonight - do not eat right before boot camp. At least an hour needs to be between the time of your meal and exercise. We received encouragement from a woman who has lost 100 pounds in a year! She was a great motivator and encouraged us to just keep moving and to not give up.
Tomorrow is a workout on the treadmill - more fun to come!
Weight loss this week was 3 pounds. I will take it.
You go girl! I'm feeling ashamed and chubby... Bike ride later this morning! I wish I lived closer to you, would love to work out together! Remember, slow and steady wins the race,
