It's funny, when the journey's as long as mine has been, and probably will be, you make lots of non-weight discoveries along the way. One thing I've discovered is that I want physical fitness in order to enjoy my life more. Weird, huh, that I haven't really figured that out until now. It's literally easier to make myself exercise when I'm training FOR something fun--like vacation. Right now, I know we'll be in San Francisco in July. Lots of hills, and we would probably want to visit Alcatraz, which has a fair amount of hiking. Recently, it was wanting to enjoy walking on the beach and in the rainforest. I just don't want to be on the sidelines telling my family "you go on ahead, I'll wait here." I want to enjoy it with them. I'd even like to get to the point where I don't dodge vacation photos--that might be a ways off, though! To this end, I started doing my walk/jog interval dvd again last night. My goal is to get back into doing it (or the treadmill) regularly to get my strength and endurance back up for the summer.
That's great that you're exercising and working toward a goal. Go for it! Could you mail me some of that motivation? :)
