No it's not Angelique the witch in The Dark Shadows talking...
It's me talking to my fats? Errr...bumpy muscles I mean. :)
It was in 2010 when I started going to aerobics and gym class. Aerobics was the fun part while weights is something that makes me want to dive in bed.
After 3 months of rigorous, butt bouncing, hip shaking exercise - and oh the weights! how can I forget them, I went down from 120lbs to 110lbs. And the tight clothes seemed to fit better again. (clap!)
Then I stopped.
I got so burned out with the routine. I wasn't ready for it either. I just wanted to shed off some pounds because... because I thought that's what I should be doing.
Three months of bench press and all that stuff is HELL to me. Sometimes I'd skip gym for a week. And when I realized I've thrown my hard earned money for nothing, I get the "motivation" to get on track again.
And now, I'm faced with the same problem years ago - WEIGHT GAIN and UNWANTED CURVES. Mygawd! why all the good food stuff result in weight scales going up? why can't I just sit on my desk all day long without gaining extra pounds? why there have to be consequences????!!!
This leaves me with no choice. NOW or NEVER!
Thursday came, I found myself standing at the door of the once familiar place. I'm hearing that upbeat music pounding again. The aerobics instructor's voice coaching, counting, and demonstrating the moves. The mirrors telling me there are still plenty of hopefuls.
I'm one of them.
Two years after, and after so much talk about me going to the gym - I finally did it!
And this time, I'm meaning it.

I was about to eat when I read your post. MY GAWD this made me stop. I am having unwanted curves too and getting rid of them is the hardest part. Good luck Jan. I'll cheer for yah, the Angelique way bouncing my way from floor to ceiling. Hahaha.
I feel a little jealousy when I see people with flat tummies. But when I see food, I forget about the jealousy.
I need to focus. Haha!
