On exercise: While I was at the track this morning

thatgirlang

Fifteen or so bubbly, skinny, high school cheerleaders showed up for a run. It did wonders for my self esteem having them stare at the old pregnant lady. And they DID stare.

I did my best to ignore them while I continued walking. I cut my walk a mile short because I was tired of watching them all pick their wedgies out a thousand times. Those short short shorts were not meant to run in.

LOL.  Walk proud, mama.

UGH!

Hey, I've been meaning to ask you...I used to do 3 mile walks with DH. However, now, I can't make it a whole 45 minutes because I can't go that long without a pitstop. I even stop drinking thirty minutes prior to walking and have very few sips along the way. What is your secret, Ang?

They were staring cause you look good

There is nothing worse than seeing a hot, skinny girl right now. I feel your pain! And boo on those wedgies....and them for staring. Don't they know that there is a very good chance that at least one of them will be in your shoes before they know it?

LOL! OMG- I'm dying. I wondered if one of them was secretly scared, wondering if she might be me in a few months. LMBO.

Wow, Kudos for working out!

You know that all those wedgies were giving them serious rub marks too.

I go first thing in the morning and honestly drink very little water (if any) before I leave. I take water with me but only sip here and there, enough to stay hydrated. I've been lucky so far. When I get in the car, I gulp the water like crazy and proceed to do so for the rest of the day.

It's funny though- JUST this morning, (before the cheerleaders showed up) I was considering cutting my time down to 30 minutes before something bad happens!

I'm going to need to switch to first thing in the morning walks, too. I'm in TX and it's already so hot and humid here- I know you know the feeling Perhaps if I went earlier, without water, I'd last longer. I will try it. Thanks!

Jennifer- Yeah, if I want to walk outside I HAVE to go early in the a.m.- the heat and humidity come fast! GL!

You're so good, Ang, with exercising! I think the last time I was at the gym was two weeks ago today. I've been so busy after work, plus not motivated, tired, etc.  I hope to get in some morning walks at the gym when I have a week off at the end of the month. I am just not comfortable taking a walk in the neighborhood due to fatigue and bathroom issues.

ha- that's too funny. i know what you mean about the shorts, it boggles my mind what i see some girls working out in at the gym. hello- you're there to work out, it's not a meat market/fashion show.

keep up the walking though- that's awesome. i've been getting lots of crazy looks at the gym too- i find it amusing!
