Yeah, its raining. I get in a funk when it stays gray out for a long time. Were on our second day and I am surprised my mood hasn't changed for the worse. When its cold and wet and yucky I usually want to snuggle up with my knitting and some comfort goodies of the warm and oohey gooey variety. Not so this time. Today I don't feel bad, however I am feeling another strange feeling. For the second day in a row I'm actually missing my walk... and that bums me out.
I have never liked exercise. NEVER. Period. What is this new found love for it that I have? I have been doing my walking and belly dance faithfully and yesterday (because of my foot and the rain) I substituted walking for The Biggest Loser workout on my Wii, which I loved by the way :) I wanted more. What??? Strange, very strange indeed.
Today I am going to do the Wii again and my Bollywood Dance DVD and look like a major fool hopping about with all sorts of jiggling parts (and sooooo NOT in a sexy way jiggling) in front of my honey. I hope he doesn't eat directly before he witnesses my grand display of the massively unfit and overly large. I wouldn't want him to suffer ill digestion at my expense. The point here is I think this whole fitness thing may have actually sunk in. I mean really the only sweat Id ever let any other human see me break would be when I'm pushin out another baby, and I'm modest even then!
At any rate Im gonna ride this wave of feeling the git up and go before it passes. And hey, with today being hubby's day off its a good thing about the rain, cuz that just means Im stuck inside with the best snuggle mate on the planet :)
Hummmm... do you exercise in front of your significant other?

Last night I rode the stationary while my wife was watching the Wings game with me. I think it actually turns her on that I am trying to get in shape. Plus, I hope to inspire her to start exercising soon. As far as your weather...this weekend forecast is rain for us. I think we are getting what you got now...thanks a lot.
ReplyDeleteWay to keep moving even though Mother Nature is getting in your way. Do you need the Wii fit for the biggest loser?
If my hubby's at home, I usually drag him out with me (either walking outside or at the gym). But we don't have 7 kids at home either, so that may not be practical for you.
ReplyDeleteNah, I don't exercise in front of him but its just a time issue. IF (and that is a ginormous IF) I do exercise, I just do it while he's at work.
ReplyDeleteAl, You dont have to have the Wii fit board for the biggest loser game. You can use the board along with it, its just more accurate at measuring your score and how many cals you are burning. Like it can tell if you are really doing your planks or not and all that stuff. Very cool for me cuz I cant really see results on my body cuz Im so chubilicious but I can see my scores and such. It has so many cool features that I wouldn't know where to begin.
ReplyDeleteSharon, I have an 18, 13,11,10, 5,4 and almost 11 month old... its hard to do anything around their schedules but they are all being supportive and helping mama make time by the older ones helping watch the lil ones :)
I am truly amazed at what you are accomplishing with 7 kids. Bravo HoneyB!
ReplyDeleteAs for working out in front of the significant other, I don't have one. Just a room with a bike, a t'v, an IPOD and myself. Hopefully one day I will find that elusive special someone. For now, I couldn't imagine someone watching me ride the bike.
Keep up the good work!
