There was a day when I could run circles around most people. A workout? Ha, I laughed in the face of workouts. I'd play 3 hours of soccer then head off to climb or something.
Even in college I was playing soccer at least 4 or 5 days a week.
I was in shape. Good shape. I didn't get winded climbing stairs, to say the least.
Then I met Shaun. And we got married.
Shaun and I like food. We REALLY like food. And after we got married, we ate a lot of it. And spent a good amount of time sitting on the couch watching movies while we did it.
But we started soccer-ing again... and life was again ok on the fitness front.
And then I had 3 kids.
Now, I thought that chasing them around and hauling the MEATBALL everywhere was an amazing workout.
Then I met Jillian Michaels.
Heh.
She scares me.
My body feels like I've been flogged.
I'm choosing to believe that it's because the workout is hard and not because I was such a fledgling weakling that 2 days of a 30 minute workout has practically crippled me.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to waddle to the kitchen to eat some

Hope the M&M's won out, just this once. :o)
ReplyDeleteI think I know the workout you're talking about. Of course that was from before I was pregnant (again). It does kick your butt. I'm sure I'll get desperate and try it again someday after baby is born.

Good for you!
ReplyDeleteI did Day 1 of the 30 day shred this morning and it was HARD! They have them on Fios on demand but only the first day. I guess I'll just get a one day shred.
I am so with you. I worked out for the first time in over a year the other day and thought i was going to die when i woke up the next. I am really going to start trying to do it everyday but man o man is it killin me.
