My legs ache - exercise should be illegal!!! Mood
Wednesday, May 21, 2008 | A Positive story

I've been going to the gym and it's hard work!! My legs ache so much. My friend got me on this revolting hill climbing machine. She did 35 minutes on level 8. I did 5 minutes on level 1 and nearly threw up!!! I'm soooooo unfit.

There's quite a lot of older people at the gym which I thought was good - better than skinny bints in lycra shorts and bra tops! OOOOOH NO IT'S NOT BETTER!!! It's very embarrassing when a 65 year old man is running away on his treadmill and I'm struggling to do a fast walk and sweating like a pig.

Who said exercise was fun? They lied!!

    Well I can tell you from experience, I went to the gym for a year when my separation troubles started and it did wonders for me, I was like you too could hardly complete what seemed to be the simplest of tasks at the gym, but I went everyday and now I am a pro and smile a little smirk every time I see someone like I used to be, good for you keep it up, I found after a week of beating my body up (once all the pain was gone) that I could not get enough of going to the gym. I see comedy in your comments so I take it you are feeling a little better.

    I am inspired by your motivation. I went to the treadmill once last week after not going since last fall. I have been trying every day to go again, but now I just have to go tomorrow:) I am proud of your exercise achievements!

I'm not putting much here today because I don't want to tempt fate!

I think things are getting a little better - probably because my doctor doubled my meds!!!

I'm going to change my face and I hope that that isn't a bad omen!!

I'm not going to write much here today. I think today has been OK.

My doctor increased my tablets a couple of days ago and I'm hoping that they're starting to kick in now. I didn't feel too bad when I woke up this morning. Not as anxious and panicky as usual. I'm hoping that tomorrow is the same.

I've just spent the day with the kids which has been nice even though they've done nothing but bicker at eachother!

Here's hoping tomorrow is ok too.
