Is it worth it?
I am on a mission to make a life change and it is kicking my ass! My whole body aches and I feel older than when I started. I am back at the gym on a regular basis. So many people seemed surprised to see me there, hhmmm, I wonder why that is? Anyway, I think I set my goal a little high and over did it. Every muscle in my body aches. Now I can’t stop or my hard work will be for nothing. I think I figured I could just walk in and work-out like I had kept in shape the last few years. Boy was I wrong! 15 minutes on the elliptical and I needed a beach towel to dry off. Yes, I know that is a sexy thought, but seriously it’s crazy. I swam a few laps in the pool on Sunday and I was totally winded. When did swimming become hard work? As long as I have lost at least half my ass by mid-summer, I will keep working hard, but if it does not pay off soon, I am going back to being a couch potato….much easier!

I wish I was motivated to work out.
I took a year off from the gym. When I went back I couldn't lift half of what I used to. It pissed me off.
Sonya: You can do it!!
Anna: Thanks babe!!
Awe: I hear ya, if you stop for even a week you can feel it!
No pain No gain :)
We bought an eliptical machine last year and when I first started using it I thought I was going to DIE!!! (of course smoking doesn't help)
I've just come to the conclusion that I'm not as young as I used to be and that REALLY SUCKS!!!

he told me yesterday that i need to "take annabella back to the zoo where i found her".
I hate the eliptical! It kills my thighs! You did 15 minutes on that torture machine? YOU DA WOMAN!
I agree. exercizing sucks.
You inspire me. As I light up a cigarette.
I am right there with you Tumble. I joined Gold's at the beginning of the month and the trainer kicked my butt hard. I have been working away everyday...and I do hurt all over too.
Keep it up...it will pay off (at least that is what I keep telling myself).
Use the payoff as inspiration, a carrot in front of you if you will.
You'll live longer and get twice the looks you're already getting.
simply reading about you working out so hard has winded me.
where did i set my beer...
I find that slipping red wine in my water bottle helps tremendously...
db: Aging sucks, but your are fighting a damn good battle!
scum: I am on my way. Nobody gets to talk about anna like that...well, okay not most people anyway.
Thanks crabby, I think they were made to be torture machines!
Jiggs: We can't all be skinny like you!
DM: Shut up loser, I was in a hurry. I do have a job, no really I do!
Brooke: You are awesome!
LeeAnn: Damn, I want a trainer! If he is hot, buff and single!
KC: Such a sweet talker!
mgc: Way to go, can you get me one while your at the fridge?
Mac: I will have to wait a few pounds before I get this ass on wheels, we have enough pot holes in town!
Larry: Your as smooth as a babies butt!
Jane: Shit, that's a great idea....really!
Anna: Sorry, I took yesterday off work and now I am way behind! I will catch up.
I am getting old and into my future, seen and heard it all, still work out, am fairly fit, do it now and then when I have a Pop Up, I think you are a nice normal person, and thanks for being nice to me, BTW nice lips.
waistcoat: How dare you call me normal!
lucky: Now I know why they call you lucky.
