I'm really proud of you guys. I've had some medical stuff going on (med change that is causing bad fatigue), but I hope to get back on track very soon. I think my body just needs some adjustment time. Look for me next week. I'm keeping my sister's three children all weeekend so she and her DH can have a getaway to West Virginia and I doubt I get hopping before then. Maybe by next week it will be warmer, too!

2/8 -- 75 minutes Spinning This was the toughest class I think I've ever done -- 60 minutes of interval sprints, some standing but mostly sitting. My arms are quivering a bit as I type this and my head is a little light. I haven't taken a shower yet because I'm waiting for my core temp to drop a bit first (or else I have a tendency to feel nauseous -- I have relatively low blood pressure). TF07 - 1005 minutes (16 hours 45 minutes) GTTD - 100,713 minutes

I have had an insane past 10 days or so. Insane. Literally, really. But I am posting today to commit to a walk after work. I have my gym bag packed and I have no excuses. I think I will walk instead of doing a walk/run because I have been having some pain in the arch of my right foot (Plantar Fasciitis?). Yeah for everyone who kept the thread going!

You can do it, Hermie! Hope your foot's OK. I had signed up for Spinning on Sat at 10AM, but since I was out until 2:30 the night before (and had a few glasses of wine), I didn't go. But I'm planning to go tonight. There's a family function at my in-laws and I normally would not go to the gym, but given everything they can wait for my *ss this time.

You know what part of my problem is? When I am really fatigued, or have a lot going on, as happened this past 10 days, I don't do anything instead of doing something in moderation. I have had a problem with moderation all of my life. I need to work on changing my mindset. I need to recognize that taking a half-hour walk is okay and better than not doing anything at all just because I don't have the time or energy for a 90 minutes run-walk. I'm really terrible about that, in almost all areas of my life, not just sexercise. HAHA! That was real typo and I am so amused by it, I have to leave it. It's been a constant theme for me for decades, coloring everything from drinking to food to exercise to housework to finances. I wonder why?

Thanks anyway, Scooter! Hey, how about we compromise and I do a 35 minute "Fat-Burning Yoga" workout in the safety of my home? And thanks, Mak! I'm really fighting a buzzkill right now. This is 5 days in a row that I haven't had a break. Phft! <sulk> <mope> <pout>

Hermione, here's the thing. If you can't do it tonight, you will do it tomorrow. Or when you can. Because exercise makes you feel better, and it's a positive thing in your life. It's not a chore. And every 30 minutes adds up, as that TF07 number shows every time you log in.
