Spin Class

In my quest to become fit I took a spin class . . . . truly by accident. I went to the gym on Saturday to get weighted and body fat measured. The detail of which I will keep quiet until I am where I want to be physically. After whispering my weight to the trainer, and the body fat machine which if you have never had your body fat done is an experience. Nothing like someone squeezing your fat and pinching it and writing down the numbers.
The trainer then said I want you to run a mile and half. I figured for some reason this was part of the assessment  I was going for. But I did it, walk some and ran some. Felt very proud of myself since that morning I had taken Ruby for a walk.
Then the young trainer said while nodding his head up and down, " You're going to stay for the spin and abs class aren't you. " So I did my first spin class.
Today Sunday, I have invested in Ben Gay!
I will get there it's my goal, to be fit!

Fitness Quest

Ok trying harder to improve myself, I believe that it's never too late to work on yourself. My new quest is working out to get fit and lose some weight. Seeing a lot of people I know lose weight, they feel better and are happier it seems. I was never a happy fat person, I feel like I have lost control and I need to get my control back.
So today I did a challenge to myself. I found a coupon to a place called Fitness MD, it's like gym class. In high school, gym was my favorite class. When I got out of high school I stopped, then had kids. Thinking just keeping up with the kids would keep you thin. It didn't, so now at age 51 it's time for me.
This will be a place to express myself while I change myself into a health, happy person again.
