Waking Up

Alright..so it seems that when i walk for 30 mins everynight..which may not sound like much but I have recently switched jobs from being a receptionist and sitting all day..to being a kitchen supervisor and now I am up moving and on my feet the whole day...but it seems when i walk for 30mins everyday that I wake up before my alarm clock even goes off and I am just ready to go..does this happen to anyone else??? Is it normal? I know for awhile i stopped walking and i never wanted to get up and get ready for work all i wanted to do was sleep!!! which of course with it being cold i hate to get out of my warm bed but i do!! My husband actually asked me today why i got up early..and i told him i just woke up and was ready to go..i couldnt sleep anymore..i hope that it doesnt go away because I actually like it this way!!!

Doesn't happen to me...I like to sleep as long as i can lol. ALWAYS! I never wake up early. But this is a good thing I wish I could wake up early and be ready to go!

I have noticed this the morning after each Karate class.  I wake up feeling refreshed. The lazy side of me still hits snooze 100 times. I know that if I got up on the first snooze I'd be more than fine but for whatever reason I think I need that extra 30 mins.  I think it's normal..and a great normal at that. I think that's the way we're supposed to wake up. Not groggy. I'd take it as a sign that you're doing the right thing!

I am very much that way! Exercise changed me into a morning person.  I am starting to change back, now that I am 50, but still, I am now addicted to exercise.  You are getting addicted! You will soon realize on days when you are not moving, you feel much differently.

 

Good for you.

I wish I could get addicted to exercise...

I can sense that you are contemplating exercise. It's calling your name! hehehe  Have you thought about anything that would be easy and fun for you to do? 

I am actually aching to exercise.  We're doing construction on the upper part of my house right now and my treadmill is folded upright in my bedroom.  As soon as we're done with the construction, the treadmill will be unfolded in my room and I intend on using the damn thing daily.  But until then, I'm a lazy son of a b*tch.   I just can NOT get myself to go to the gym.  It makes me feel the way I did when I was younger - the fat kid on the play ground.  I feel like everyones looking at me, amazed that a girl my size would even have the audacity to walk into an exercise facility, let alone USE it.  And whether that's right or wrong, I FEEL it so much that I just can't torture myself by going.

Strippercize Janina lol. I still need to buy a DVD of Fit to Strip!

Once my room is back in order (probably in a month) I'll ask you for that DVD's name and probably get it.  That sounds hilarious!

I actually seen that dvd online..on netflix i think..but never rented it..it does sound really interesting..one workout tape that i really like is by cindy crawford..the next challenge..i have had it for years and i just love it..and as weird as this sounds..when i work out to it and i am so sore the next 2 days that i cant sit..i have to fall to sit on the toilet to go pee..i like that feeling..cause i know i had a good workout..sounds twisted huh? i like that burning feeling..
