Ok, so I tried my new workout video for the first time on Sunday morning....I almost died! This video was supposed to be a 57 minute challenge to start me on the road to fitness. Instead it was about 20 minutes of me using every curse word I know to describe how I felt, what I thought of the video (and the skinny bitches smiling back at me), and what was being asked of me. I really don't (or at least didn't) think I was that out of shape but this video showed me how far I have to go! I like to think that part of the problem was a lack of motivation because of a) the holiday weekend, b) the intoxicating prospect of the evening to come, or c) a combination of exhaustion from the nights prior and the lack of proper nutrition needed to sustain THAT kind of workout. Whatever combination of....ahem...excuses...ahem...you chose just know that even on my most motivated and determined day, I'm going to have dig deep and pull from god knows where to get through all 57 minutes of that workout without collapsing.
I do intend to give it the old college try. And if it doesn't work for me, I have 30 days to return it and I've only paid for shipping. I'm going to give it two weeks. I owe it to myself. Just because something is difficult in the beginning does not mean that it won't end up being worth while. This could end up changing my life, so I have to at least give it the opportunity to! Wish me luck!
