Keep it Going

Week 4.

Here I am.

I can't believe that I've made it this far.

I always give up around week 2 of an exercise program or diet.

I keep asking myself what changed? Why can I do this now, but I couldn't before?

I always feel a difference--exercise makes me happier, but why don't I stick with programs?

I have a team this time. They need me. And I need them.

We had a new addition this week. Now our group consists of Lori, Lori K (no joke), LK (me), Shannon, and Liesel. We miss Fish, but screaming was definitely going on today. Lori was gone, but Lori K joined us and she needed a little encouragement. I was amazed because she's very thin for having had four children. She is completely out of shape. It makes me wonder about a lot of people. Being thin doesn't make you healthy. I admire her for joining us.

I found out that I can do sit-ups using only my ab muscles today. If you've known me a long time, I might have told you that in elementary school I used to cry or try to skip gym on the days we did fitness tests because I could not do a sit up. (Or a push up for that matter, but I can pull myself up to a bar now.) I did nearly fifty today.
