I have a love/hate relationship with exercise. I’m not a fan of it, but after I’ve done it I feel a lot better. But then in the morning when I feel a little stiff, I hate it all over again. Hopefully, when this weight finally comes off I’ll feel a lot more positive about the benefits of it all.
I’m so sporadic about actually doing, I’ll go through phases. I’ll be all gung-ho about for about a month and then if I see no real change, I’ll stop and I’ll give up. Or, I’ll just get really lazy and rather sit on my butt and watch tv than do any real exercise other than the housework. I wish I could have someone come knock on my door and force me to do it every day. Sure, I’d despise that person but at least I’d be getting off my butt and actually doing something good for myself. I’ve started to really like my shoulders, they’re getting really defined and nicely toned. If I keep it up, I’m gonna look AWESOME come summer. Now, I just need to get rid of this spare time around my middle…it’s a nightmare and it’s so hard to shift. I will be eternally happy when that’s gone, and not having it flobbing around and hanging over my jeans all the time. My friend jokingly thought that I was pregnant again. I was really embarrased by that and I realised that I had to do something major to get into shape again.
So for the last year, I’ve been following this exercise program on and off. It’s called Turbo Jam and I really got into it last summer. Then around my birthday, I got lazy and I quit. Now I’m back at it again and I’m trying again for two reasons:
- It’s really, really fun.
- It really, really works.
I lost a couple of inches within a matter of days last summer and I was amazed at my progress. Even Nick thought I’d lost a little weight. So this time I’m doing it to the letter and I will not let myself quit or fail again. It’s cheaper than a gym membership and more fun than a dance class….and Chalene is one of the most energetic, yet inspiring women I have ever known. She sent me a message on MySpace last year for my birthday…and I was so happy about that because it shows that even though she’s famous…she’s still down to earth and realises who her fans are. And even though she lives in CA now, she’s a Michigan girl at heart and I like that a lot about her.
Anyway, why don’t you check her out for yourself? Watch the video below
