Feeling Good!

I am happy to say that I am in my second week of 6:30 a.m. workouts at the gym Monday-Friday and I'm feeling good and a whole lot less tired. I also decided to fast fast food. That means no more vanilla flavored iced coffee from McDonald's. Of coarse my head has been screaming for caffeine because my coffee from home isn't near as loaded!!! I have to say though that starting my morning at 6:00 a.m going full blast is a HUGE change. At that time I was normally getting ready to drive home from work or ironing Jeff's work clothes and heading back to bed until 7:30. The first few days of my workout were absolutely terrible. I mean I hurt everywhere and even in places I didn't know existed. I also had to watch a woman much older than me go faster and longer on the elliptical and she smiled while she did it as though it was such a joyful thing. Not only that, the gym is wall to wall with mirrors so every morning I get to look at myself and see everything jiggle (how pretty!-NOT). At first I was thinking that there is nothing about this that feels good emotionally or physically, but then I realized that if I want to be healthier I should let the older and probably wiser one be my motivator. So, now I'm really enjoying my workouts and the ME time.
