I Joined a Gym Today

It's expected to hit 112° on Wednesday. I go out when the sun goes down. It's still hot but tolerable without the sun beating sown on you like an ex-wife.

112! Whew! We Seattleites begin to melt whenever the thermometer exceeds 75 :surrender

Damn. I pay good money to do yoga in a room heated to what feels like 112...

I joined a gym today and worked out for the first time in almost 2 years. I'm going to start out slow with low-impact cardio and lighter weights so I don't fall off the wagon again.

I'm feeling pretty optimistic I'm going to stick with it!

I hope you insisted on an annual cash membership. I have seen people sign gym contracts that were forgotten about and they get a surprise contact from a collection agency.

I'm actually a member of two gyms now. The one my trainer works out of is a small, private one about 20 min north of me (I just returned from that one about an hour ago) and the other is a chain gym called Planet Fitness 10 min away from my house, and it's only $10/month. Both are open-ended contracts where I can quit anytime.

Good advice though, thanks!

I also need to gain some weight, too. I weigh 89 pounds right now. I went down a few pounds.

If it's not affecting your health, why? Don't let yourself look sick, but do you know how many five foot tall women would kill to maintain 90 lbs?

Here's my favorite meal now, both on the road and at home:

Steak salad, high fiber, high protein, low carbs and sugar. Filling and yummy!
 
P.S., I'm down 10lbs and down 2 inches in my waist.

Also I've gained 2 inches... <I think you know where I'm going with this> :2razz:
