Yesterday i started working out at the gym my company has downstairs for free. It was honestly the first time ever i have worked out as an adult. I used to be in band, track and feild, dance, and swim team and was in pretty good shape (even though i was still over weight) as a teenager, but as an adult i just have gotten lazy - not to mention addicted to food!
so yesterday my friend Lauren and I got to work at 6AM and hit the gym. After 5 minutes we exhusted and since we had gotten a late start anyway we hit the showers (not together, perv.) before coming upstairs to start work.
Today i worked out alone (yay me! something i never thought i would do!) and managed to do 10 minutes. Tomorrow's goal is 15 minutes and by next week i want to do 30 each day. I know 10 mintues isn't much, but at least its something. Not to mention i work on the 3rd floor of this building and i have started taking the stairs more offten.
I would have already been down to my goal weight already, and have had a nice toned body if i had just been working out all along, but i get so sick so easily that working out hasn't really been an option untill now. I still get sick, but i am fighting through it. I have only thrown up ONCE in 2009! This is a huge improvment from throwing up several times a day like i did before. It seems as though i have kicked my problems in the butt, although i still fight the neausea everday. My doctors have said that i shouldn't be sick at all about a year post-op. Its been about 5 months since my surgery and i can definatly see/feel a major improvment. Casey and I plan on trying for another baby later this year (September-ish is the plan, but we'll see if we are ready by then! Sam is closing in on his terrable two's and i might not want another baby till he starts school!) so i am hopeing that the weightloss and surgery will make the next pregnancy alot easier. I had hyperemisis graviterium (sp?) with samuel and it was horrable, but totally worth it.
anywho, the whole point of this blog is that i started working out. please send prayers and positive thoughts my way each morning around 5am when i am stumbling out of bed trying to gather enough strength to make it into the gym before work. ok? thanks!
