My Enemy Exercise?

Exercise I've viewed as my enemy but know that it's something I have to do to reach my goal and to maintain a healthy lifestyle and weight. So I've started walking. I live near the lake front so walking is a pleasant experience. The beach is near by, there are boats, and the wild life is every where. I love my neighborhood and I love to walk in it. This is an exercise I don't mind doing. I'm also going to encorporate some toning exercises with weights and resistance bands. I have a few dvd's with some resistance workouts that I'll be doing.

Monday is my next weigh in. Last week I lost 3 lbs. I almost didn't go to my WW (weight watchers) meeting because I thought that I hadn't lost any weight and I didn't want to be disappointed. So when the leader told me what I'd lost I was pleasantly surprised. I told him that I almost didn't come and why. He said to me wasn't I glad I did come. I really was glad and the weight loss really inspired me to push forward with my "Battle".

This morning I went for my walk and I walked 2 miles. I thought that I wasn't going to finish the walk because my back was bothering me. It was really tight and in pain. Halfway through the walk I had to stop and stretch my back muscles. This help and I was able to complete the walk. I realized that I should have stretched before I started the walk, next time I will do that. I'm preparing for a 5K walk that WW is participating in. I'll keep everyone updated on my training for the walk.

See ya later
