Made It through the Week

I'm tired and I'm sore. Yesterday, I could barely move. Boot camp is tough. I never knew I could exercise through wishing I could puke. My hamstrings are still tight. That's something I've really got to work on. My knees are killing me. No more running. I can't. I've been using the inversion table, and it helps. But it ain't making the knee pain go away completely.

I've been eating too much. Exercise makes me hungry.

I'm the oldest person in this boot camp. Did I tell you that already? I have 20 years on everyone else. However, I feel obligation to keep up with my younger boot campers. They can run, jump, or whatever they want. I will do what I can do.

Well, more later

Getting It Together

Today I feel better than I've felt in a while. No cramps, twinges, or bloating.


I didn't post anything yesterday because I was sick and I didn't have anything to say. I haven't had anything to say in a long time. Why? Because I haven't done anything. I haven't gone anywhere. I've just been sick for more than a week. I'm trying to get myself back together. Slowly but surely.

OK. I finally seem to be getting my eating under control. I've been drinking a lot more water—and that's helped. I'm still exercising. I can't wait for warm weather so I get outside.

This morning I actually ran one lap—I mean actually ran. Not that fat woman run—a real run. It left me breathless, but I could do it. My next goal is to start running. I don't know about racing, but I want to run.

I feel much healthier than I did last year. And that's a good feeling. The winter blahs are getting to me, but they'll be over soon. I noticed that the trees are budding here. And that's a good sign. Right?
