My Guilty Pleasure – Big Brother on CBS Updates (Quick View)
Well, so much for my big speach about being accountable and taking control of my life. After spending a week buried in a haze after my small battle with pneumonia I continued to spend another week lying to myself that I was still in that haze I shouldn’t do to much out of the ordinary. This of course was nothign but an incredible lie to cover up the fact that I’ve avoided 1) taking miserable pictures of my fat self and 2) actually going to the gym.
I know that there are people that love going to the gym, those that go to the gym in supposed protest but still like it, those that go and don’t like it, and those that hate it and don’t go. My current shape would make you think I was definitely one of the latter, but in truth I like excercising. I enjoy the rush you get from getting the blood pumping, I enjoy the sore feeling you get from actually making your muscles work to push weight that they normally won’t have to in a day. The only thing I don’t like about going to work out is doing it alone. There’s something about the comptetion when working out with someone else, as well as the buddy buddy-ness of going with a friend that helps motivate me to keep on a schedule of excercise.
Unfortunately I’m now at a point where it doesn’t matter and I need to get back into the swing of things. Doesn’t matter if I just walk on a treadmill for 20 minutes a day or actually use some machines or free weights… I gotta go. I know from experience that nutrition + regular excercise is the only way to conquer this beast. I know I can do one part, I relaly just need to do the other.
That sure was a nice speach about accountability though wasn’t it? Got me charged up for two days before I nearly dropped dead.
