Not feeling overly inspired lately.

Though this morning the willpower it took to put a small bag of M&M's on someone else's desk was enormous. I'm proud of myself for that. I have grapes, yummy red seedless grapes. Never ate them as a kid, so grew up thinking I didn't like them. Amazing how they can have a completely different taste.

I had forgotten how good working out with the Nautilus equipment feels. Not sore but a good "I've used these muscles" feeling. I am fortunate to have had the advice of a personal trainer type person at the Y when I first started. I think if I had been sore or unable to move the next day, I might have given up long ago. Now when I skip the weight training, it's because I want to get out of there go home.

Adding exercise to a sedentary life is hard. Every day I go there, though, I win. And I've been winning for 3 years now!


That is something to be inspired about. I'm sticking with it, even though the weight is still inching back, I'm not giving up. I'm too stubborn for that.
