Those people that walk around saying, "I LOVE to work out, it feels so good!", they are flipping crackheads! It doesn't feel good, it hurts and it is hard to breathe and you get all nasty sweaty. What feels good is being able to SAY "I love to work out. It feels so good!" not the actual workout, but the finish.
I met another woman from church at the gym this morning. She finished her workout before I did and came over to say hi. It was just a sweet hello and then she told me that her workout was more for her sanity. In my short, shallow heaves of air I replied, "yea, me too". She then waved bye and left. All I could think was, I am such a moron! Me, with my abundance of fat, just working out for my SANITY?? Ok, my workout is for my brain, it has nothing to do with my large hiney or winged arms or that set of tires around my waist!
But there is some truth to it because I am able to be in my own head while I am working out. It is me time, and as any parent can tell you, me time is a very rare and special treasure. So maybe it wasn't a lie, or just a quick reply. Even if I am doing it mainly for my juicy booty and other fabulously fatty parts, I really do get more sanity. Because the world knows any sanity in my life at all is a start!
Well, now I get to sleep for two days to recoup and go back to it on Monday! I love to workout, it feels great! Nah, I'm not there yet.....
