All out of excuses - well, I could think of a billion excuses, but the reality is I like food. I eat when I'm bored, or when I don't want to do what I know I should be doing - very rarely do I simply eat because I am hungry. And lets not talk about the choices I've been making.... carrot cake for dinner, sure, why not? Well - I've now gained back 58 pounds of the 130 pounds I had lost. BUT - instead of going all the way back to where I was - I signed up for a Coach at Macro's Inc and I'm giving it 100%. I may not be working out like I used to - although the shoulder doesn't hurt much, it's probably because I'm not using it!!
So I made a deal with this young man when I dropped him off at school. I would do whatever workout he does at college - if they do 20 sprints - I'll do 20 sprints. No where near as fast as they are of course, but I'll put the same number of meters in each week that he does (except the running part, my knees are too freaking old to start running). So I'll row, and I'll get my butt to the nearest Planet Fitness an I'll lift. I still miss boxing - but I doubt if I'll ever trust someone to throw hands with like I trusted my old trainer - so for now boxing is on the back burner. But come next spring - I WILL learn to row OTW with the single that's been housed in my garage since my shoulder surgery - because it's time! Maybe I'll even learn how to surf !!
