Pom poms

I am sweaty and enjoying it. For the second day in a row, I completed the aerobics dvd that I have. I am hoping I can keep this new trend going and do it again tomorrow. So, I have favors to ask all those who read this blog... be my cheerleaders and keep my ass in gear?

I want to be healthy, lose weight, and feel better about my physical being. I know I will never be a size 5, or even a size 12. I am always going to be a larger woman and that is okay with me. However, I know I can be healthier, which does mean being a little smaller. My goal weight is 200 pounds. Now, those of you who have known me a long time, I weighed 200 pounds in 6th grade and I think I looked pretty good. :) If I reach 200 and think I can lose more, I will go for 180. However, I do not beleive I will ever be less than that.

For the sake of my health, I have to take off this weight and eat better. It's a lifestyle change, for which I hope I am ready.

In other news, no more penises have appeared at my window. I consider this good news. Also, concerning the exercise, I purchased something I never thought I'd want to see on my body again, but boy am I glad I did. I bought biker shorts, black, shiny, stretchy but tight biker shorts. It's hard when fat people exercise and your clothes ride up between your legs, leaving the upper part of your thighs rubinng, but with fabric bunched in the middle. The biker shorts have solved this problem and now my thighs glide! Who would have thought?! I aim to get more if I keep up this wonderful workout regime.

Good work!

I hate exercising, but need to for good health and whatnot too. B has been going to the gym regularly this month with the goal of losing a few pounds. I'm very proud of him - seriously admiring his dedication. I think people who can stick to regular exercise are admirable. (Wouldn't it be great to be one of them!) B's dragged me along a couple of times - consequently I can barely walk yesterday and today from some weight-lifting machine. But, I do feel good after I go, like I've accomplished something truely worthwhile.

So, keep it up, and I can be jealously pround of YOU and he both!

Maybe we'll get in some walking or something when you're here next weekend!

I came across your blog from cdoc's. I hope thats okay?!?!

Way to go on your aerobics! I know I sometimes have problems with rubbing skin when I do my longer runs, like my underarms and sometimes my legs... They have what is called body glide, and I heard it works wonderfully! I haven't tried it yet, but will if I have further problems in that department!

Good for you! Maybe if you stick with, I will get back into it. I go through spurts, exercise for 6 months, not at all for 3 months. I need to be better about it. Here's to your health, and to all of ours' for that matter! A little highschool reunion in goa's comments I see:)

Yay for Glidelicous thighs!

And for the inkling to wear biker shorts!

And for penis-less views out your window!
