My First Day At The Gym

I have never liked gyms. I never know what I'm doing and I always feel so self conscious that I never go back.

So I was a little nervous about how I would react last night. I was going all by myself, with no buddy. I walked in like I owned the place. I had to keep telling myself that I am already beautiful, that helped.

I worked out for an hour and a half and I still didn't want to leave. It was eight o'clock, I had to get home and put the kids to bed. Plus, I felt a little guilty that I left Big D home with nine hungry kids.

Maybe that's why I had such a good time at the gym and didn't want to leave.

It's been fun, Big D and I are getting in to the competition part of the wager. That really helps because I am so competitive but I never feel like I can let that side of me out - it's not pretty.

Today I made a huge banner that said, "I am going to Disneyland" and put it right where Big D can see it when he comes home. He's going to get a good laugh out of that one.

Big D was telling me yesterday that he started his diet off with a fast to get the Lord on his side. He said he had a hard time all day at work yesterday but then he'd look up some snow machines on the internet and feel so much better.

I told him that was cheating getting the Lord on his side, so today I'm fasting to even things up again. Ha Ha!

Man am I hungry!
