Snow today, just after the last bout cleared up. Nothing stopped me from getting to the gym today. I was on the recumbent bike listening to the Editors and Massive Attack on my mp3 player when I realised I was almost enjoying myself. If the mp3 player hadn't have been with me I would have be bored by the whole experience. Instead I pumped my legs to the beats, in the way that one danced in the early 90s. I had bags of energy and plenty of water on board and my legs and arms no longer ache.
The pool was empty so I did a series of deep squats in the water and then settled into the jacuzzi as a reward for actually getting to the gym. I feel vital and I truly deserve a great lunch.
I bought a new yoga dvd the other day with my Christmas money. I was slightly exhausting to watch but I'll give it a go this afternoon possibly. I'm hoping it will stop the cravings for the box of Cadbury's heros that's sitting near the fireplace but thankfully there are a hundred tons of clementines in the fruit bowl.

I <3 the Editors! Haven't met anyone yet who even knew who they are.
I like yoga, but so much of it is too advanced for me. I've been doing Namaste Yoga, which is from FitTV. I just got the DVDs so I can do it anytime.
Clementines are just like candy. I took them as my pseudonym - that's how much I like them. :)
I love the statement "I feel vital"
Just lovely.
Keep up the good work! Sounds like you are off on the right foot in 2010. Me too!
Glad to hear the enjoyment for exercise is coming. It took me well over a year before I felt that feeling, so it is awesome that you have it early.

Great committment to get your exercise done. Lots of people would have flagged it. Shows you are going to succeed.
