Guess who got all snapish today. Three guesses and the first two don’t count.
Here’s a a clue: She started a diet in the second half of her “woman cycle” while trying to take two little girls to swimming lessons where one is SURE to poop in the pool, and the other is being bossy.
I’m telling you now: you spill ANY more juice in here, I’m going to spank you till you are BLUE!
Do we understand each other?
I thought so.
Anyway – I joined a gym today. I have not gone yet, but I have joined. They have childcare. $2 per hour. I may go to the gym and just work out so I don’t have to watch the kids. Sounds like a WIN-WIN to me.
I also made high fiber, weight watchers, triple-berry banana muffins with Elly this afternoon. Those surely are the best two points I am going to eat today. Mmmmm… Colon blow.
SO! Now that I have a gym membership – how will I use it? What’s the best course of action at the gym? Can someone make me a checklist? Truly, I promise I won’t bite your head off.
go slow. keep it interesting. don’t hurt yourself.
seriously.
OK – I’ll try.
Slowly.
I proud of you! Begin with one small step and just keep going. Truly this is them most important thing you can do for yourself. Get going girl!

If you haven’t been exercising in a while, I recommend the treadmill. Crank that baby up, vary the speed between “gonna pass out” and “hurts but I can breathe” on a regular basis, and use the incline feature willy nilly (back when I went to the gym this is how I kept myself in hiking shape during the off-season). Bring a magazine. Other people read books, but I find a good, juicy gossip mag more rewarding and less headache-inducing with all the bouncing.
Sometimes gyms offer a few or cheap personal training session for newbies. Might be worth a check.
Good tip – I’ll be right on that… Soon.
Sacrificial eating update: Yesterday, in your honor, I ate four granola bars out of six-pack that I purchased to last me an entire week. I hope you properly appreciate what I am doing for you.
