I DID IT - I WENT TO THE GYM TODAY

I put my swimsuit on and got in the pool and did my laps. I haven't been there since my November 13th surgery, it sure felt good. It's a love/hate thing with exercise, I always feel so good when I'm done, but it's so hard to get going. I wonder if I will ever love it like some folks do. I do enjoy the pool once I get there, I wish I had an exercise buddy.....see ya! Mary

That sounds like great exercise! I can't swim but it sounds like so much fun...

Good, for you, Mary! I would go to the Y, pool, for my arthritis, but NO ONE, will ever see me in a bathing suit! EVER!~Did I say NEVER? ha I bet it did feel so good!~

I applaud you for going to the pool - I don't think I am ready for that one! I have a love/hate relationship with running. I hate it when I am getting ready but I love it when I am done.

Thanks, Sharon. Yup, putting the suit on was very hard, but when I got there, there were 2 people older and bigger than I was. I chose this health club for that very reason, it caters to seniors and not cutesy skinny people in hot pink suits... at 6 a.m. I swim with a couple in their 80s and if that isn't motivation, I don't know what is. Take care. Mary

YAY for you!!! I did too for the 2nd day in a row, I was absent since October and the guilt was killing me! Now we can feel and look great with our athletic glow (aka sweat lol)
