Hello to all!
Well, I've decided to create a new blog-- this one is really just for me to track my exercise. I've been exercising for about a month and a half (I've begun Feb. 4th, 2008),and pretty much stuck to it; I am extremely proud of myself!!!
Throughout medical school it has been way too easy for me to avoid exercising-- (They weren't kidding... it really is a busy time :o) ) But, making excuses is too easy. I wanted to do things right: I want to set an example for my young patients... and do as I preach.
So I don't make excuses for myself anymore.
I exercise.
You should too!
So about 2 months ago when I decided I had to make this life changing habit a... well... a habit, I had a mission. My mission was to find an exercising program I could do, and have fun while doing so. I get bored too easily and don't stick to things if they are boring. I also HATE running... I suspect it has to do with the fact that I was very out of shape... So, it couldn't be boring or running! It had to be something that would aid me to return to exercising.
After a lot of thought I bought Richard Simmon's Sweatin' to the oldies DVD for 10 bucks at Amazon. This was my catalyst. It has been a fun ride, and I am not at all bored!!!
So for now, I mainly 'dance with Richard', do several days of weights and stretch.
Yes, this isn't hard core exercising, but this is definitely a beginning. I am planning to stick to this through residency and then through the rest of my life.
From this point on I will just talk about what I have done every time I exercise. I will make it as short as I can... otherwise this log of exercise will get too annoying to write.
Ta!
