You know you are out of shape when your fat hurts. I decided to try an aerobic dance routine I found on exercise tv on demand, it was called Cheryl Burke’s Disco Abs. About 10 minutes in I found myself praying for cardiac failure. I use to do an hour and a half of cardio kickboxing and now I just got my ass handed to me by the “celebration slide.” WTF!? My fat, skin or whatever hurt so bad. But, I did the whole thing! I may have cursed and wished for a power outage and/or death, but I did it! And, I felt great after a shower and 20 minutes of groaning on my bed. I feel way less gross.
I needed to do some physical activity after being confined to my bed all weekend after a biking accident. With the help of pain killers and modified movement I was able to work up a good sweat. I followed the routine with some yoga stretching and now my shoulder feels so much better. So a word to the wise – If I can do exercise half-crippled, anyone can!!! No excuses.
Even though I was having the worst sweets craving I managed to avoid my routine trip to Baskin Robbins. Ice Cream is my kryptonite! But, I have to give the stuff up. I realized I had a problem after I returned from a recent 2 week vacation and the BR guy told me “What happened to you? I was worried!” I have to fight the urge and notify the BR staff – I don’t want them filing a missing person’s report.
What makes it even worse is that Baskin Robbins is right around the corner from where I live and the S.O.B. is open 24 Hours! Oh what a cruel world we live in!!!!
Let’s hope I make it though the night without any sleep walking episodes.
