Across the street from the dance school my kids attend is a Lady Fitness. When we first moved up here to the north of Ogden a few of the ladies in the ward (neighborhood) told me they went to LF to do classes together and encouraged me to join. I looked into it online but decided with Jared's job situation being a little shaky and having just moved I didn't want to add a fitness membership to the budget.
Here I am, two years later, and I'm still coming up with excuses not to go join. Sadly, the excuses have devolved to pathetic and pitiful things and the occasional "maybe after I finish this piece of cake".
Also, in the two years since we moved up here I've put on more than ten pounds. Lots of factors to this, mostly eating my feelings type factors. I am working on my eating habits and need to get more serious and scheduled about my exercise goals.
40 is only a couple of years away now and it's been 10 years since my hip/pelvis reconstruction. I'm slowing down metabolically and physically and it's not making me feel good about myself.
I'm driving at least one of my kids down to the dance studio and back every single day and sometimes sitting in the car or the lobby for up to 45 minutes with a book while waiting for classes to finish. I drive past that Lady Fitness over and over and have even been in the parking lot a few times (the train stop is next door). Finances are okay, schedule is okay, I need to exercise, my husband thinks it's a good idea....
Now to quit sitting in the car staring at the gym across the street and actually get up the willpower to walk in.
