Must Have Been Possessed by an Alien . . .

Totally no disrespect meant for extraterrestrials, but I did something out of this world--or at least out of my comfort zone--this morning: AEROBICS!!!

OK, so I know this may not be earth-shaking, but when you weigh 245 pounds like I do and all you've done so far over the past 3 months are some stretches, yoga, and slow walking, an hour of dancing around and sweating a lot seems major!

I've been down in the dumps a bit--a plateau, money woes, blah, blah, blah--and I decided to (literally!) shake things up after my daily stretches, and I FEEL GREAT!!

I think I found those ENDORPHINS (or whatever the heck the feel good after exercise chemicals are)!

Whoo hoo!  I actually think I could do this again . . .

. . . and to those who are having a hard time getting active, just know that if I can do it, YOU can do it!!! 

Yay! 

Way to go!   Watch out, once you start you may not be able to
stop!  Aerobics is a great habit to have!  Congrats!

Those endorphins are great aren't they.  Gives you a bit of energy as well as some self pride that "hey... I can do that and it's good for my health too!"  Way to go!

Ciosa

nymo, it would be nice to have some *good* habits!  :D

ciosa, I am kinda proud of it . . . now, let's see if my legs work tomorrow!  haha!

It sure is great finding the endorphins and your legs will work tomorrow!! Great job, keep it up! :)

if you haven't done aerobics before and you're concerned about mobility later, make a point of stopping to gently stretch your legs periodically throughout the day. I've been doing that since I took up running-otherwise I'd be stranded on the main level of my house. lol XD

Way to go! I need to get back into the habit of working out. You have motivated me. I think I am going to try my work out video tomorrow! :)
