Sweaty, smelly, and feeling fine

I am very proud of myself tonight. I finally got my butt back to the gym. I haven’t been in quite some time. Getting sick, the holidays, being promoted, injuring myself while playing softball (Achilles bursitis – the limp was almost comical), all conspired to keep my away from the gym. But of the course, the biggest reason for staying away was pure laziness. But now that I have reminded myself about how good it feels to be wiped and exhausted after a good work out I will try my hardest to resume my 5 night a week work out habit.

The hardest part is always forcing your self to go. But once I am there – it is heaven. I hop on the treadmill at a good pace and a nice incline and just go. Throw a good CD into my CD player and rock out. (I don't have an MP3 player yet - hint hint Christmas is coming... I really like the 40Gb Dell in case anyone was at a loss for what to get me.) Then I do mild weight training. Hopefully I will get the same results that I did last year at this time when I lost 30 pounds over 2 ½ months with a good work out.

The best part is that I am tired and I know that I will sleep well.
