Slacker
I've been averaging once a week exercising for the past month and it has not been good. I started strong on the C25K thing but the day after my second run my ankle started hurting and it lasted for almost a week. So I've decided to lay off that for a bit. Maybe after I lose another 10-15 lbs I'll pick it back up again.
I have started something a bit new to motivate me - Group Personal Training sessions at my Gym. I did it last Monday and I did again last night. It costs a bit more, $5 per class (above the cost of my Gym Membership) but the work is good for me. I'm doing all kinds of things I hadn't thought to do. Things I wasn't sure I could do. Like doing a standing jump onto a step almost as high as my knees. Kettlebells, push ups, walking planks, burpies, using those giant ropes, plus all kinds of other things I don't even have a name for. I have learned that I rock at squats. Ha! I've got the thighs of a weightlifter. :)
Anyway, it's thanks to those 2 classes that I've taken off the pound I gained. So I'm back to where I was 3 weeks ago. :) I'm not sick AND I'm motivated again. It feels good.
