I’m Getting Fit!
I think weight and body image is something that most people struggle with in their lives unless you’re one of those lucky b!tches that were just born skinny (I am not one of those people).
I have spent most of my life overweight. I have tried the fad diets and started to exercise more times than I care to remember, only to give up when the muscle aches start.
Each time, I promise myself that things will be different and that I will lose the weight, but the truth is that I was going about it all the wrong way. I read a blog post recently, and it was written that if you exercise and diet simply to lose weight, then you are almost certainly destined to fail.
PAMPERING YOUR BODY
This blogger then talked about how they began to exercise because they wanted to do something nice for their body. They talked of exercise as a way of pampering themselves; of building up their body.
I was talking to one of my best friends about exercise last week, and they were saying that they usually exercise every morning, and they find that when they don’t, they end up feeling worse because of it; almost as if their body is protesting the lack of care that not exercising causes.
