So I hate that I have to get up at 5 in the am to get to the gym, but I do have to say after I am done I feel sooo much better.
I am more awake for the rest of the day.
My energy level (while not up to the place I want it to be) is higher.
I have A LOT more patience.
I'm nicer.
I feel like I've done something for me and no one else.
I've become pretty reliant on exercises...you could almost say addicted. I still don't' see the results I wish I could have, but I don't' plan on giving up now so maybe someday!
By the way. Exercise doesn't have to be just at the gym. If you go for a 15-20 minute walk or take the stairs instead of the elevator, park farther out at the grocery store, do calf exercises (stand flat for 5 seconds then stand on tip-toe for 5 seconds..repeat) while doing the dishes, do crunches while watching your favorite show. Any kind of exercises is better then no exercise and it will make you feel better!.
Great ideas! Exercise seemes like such a daunting task, but you're right. It doesn't have to be hard.
