I'm Getting My Booty in Shape

Well believe it or not, I joined a boot camp about 6 weeks ago!  My old 50 year old body has never done this kind of working out...ever in my whole life!  It all started with a phone call from my dear friend Joy.  She proceeded to tell me about this boot camp that a young man had just started.  She thought it would good for us to go, so we could get in shape!  Well....the first week, I literally thought I was dying!  But...I kept going everyday, hoping the soreness would leave by continuing to work out.  It did eventually get easier and the soreness subsided (some):)  That was until yesterday...our trainer made us do sprints.  I felt like a very old lady when I got up this morning.  I went straight to the kitchen for ibuprofen.  I even thought about not going today...but I did.  All soreness aside, I am seeing some results and I like it.  I feel better.  I have not had hot flashes in about a month and I was having them pretty frequently!  I am sleeping at night...which is such a blessing. The past year has been really rough as far as sleep goes.  I will never take a good night's sleep for granted ever again. I am seeing some results in a few pounds of weight loss and inches.  But I really think the best part is just knowing I am doing something that I never even thought I would or could do.  It feels good to make a commitment and stick to it..to not give up when it gets too hard. So now it is 6 weeks later and I am still going. Yea ME!


Abundantly blessed and sore....Lisa
