TX, United States
I am a 39 yr. old stay at home mom to 3 girls ages 10, 9 and 7. My goal is to be fit by 40! I want to lead a healthier lifestyle. I was banded on 4/5/2011. I tend to be a bit on the sarcastic and cynical side. I love to read, hate to excersise (but am learning to tolerate it!), love to shop and want to smack anyone who is a size 2 (not really!). I am learning to work with my band and my new self one day at a time!

Workout Wednesday

I am going to try something new tonight.  It has been years since I have taken a kickboxing class.  But, it used to be my favorite.  And since now I have skinnied up I am going to try it again.

The class is not some fun cardio class at the local gym full of cute little women that want to get their sweat on.  It is the real deal.  It is at a boxing gym.  You get to wear gloves and everything.  The instructor is a hard core boxer.

I am not going to lie.................I am scared.  Not of the physical aspect of a new workout.  It is the mental part that I find hard to cope with.  The walking into a new class.  Finding just the right place to stand.  Meeting new people. 

It is totally out of my comfort zone.

But I am going.

Because I need to prove that I really am strong.

I need to prove to myself that I can do this.  So I can feel empowered. 

So, send warm fuzzy thoughts my way today.  I need all the good vibes I can get.

  3. Sending you great vibes. You can totally do this.

    I don't deal with new situations very well, and I got dragged to a kickboxing class a few years ago. Everyone was so nice and no one cared that I was as red as a tomato and sweating like a pig. My theory is that everyone else is so concerned with what they look like they don't really pay much attention to you!
