Things I Learned...

I learned a couple thing this past two weeks...

1. I am not a morning person. I DO NOT like waking up before 7:30pm. Therefore, waking up to exercise at 5:30am lasted all of two mornings.

2. I have 100 million things to do around the house, so when the children are napping, the LAST thing I want to do is exercise.

3. The summer clothes I need to fit into, still do not fit. And, since I am not made of money, I can't afford to go out and buy all new summer clothes.

And this leads me to #4...

4. I am a gym girl. The only way this body of mine is ever going to slightly resemble it's pre-baby size is if I get my booty out of the house and go to a gym to workout. Conveniently, I've been making a monthly donation to a local gym but have not graced it's doors in 7+ months, so actually going to a gym to exercise just required me to swallow my shame and go back.

I did that this morning. Went to the gym, kids in tow, walked to the counter, told them I had a membership but had not been in a LLLOONNNGGG time and did not remember my membership number. The girl was quite nice, giggled at my admission, took my picture (liked her a little less at this point) and welcomed me back. And back I am. I am vowing to myself to get to the gym at least 3 times this week. I don't feel this should be too difficult for me, I am used to going to a gym to exercise, just have to get back with the program.
