Strange, But in a Good Way ...

So last night R and I went to the new gym we're trying on. I found a bike and got right into my normal swing of things - riding it without toooo much effort, but enough. I get my cardio in the mornings is my rational of it! It was fun! I ended up burning 200 calories in 30 minutes before dinner, not too shabby! So R and I decided that we are in fact going to join. Me? Join a gym? Who knew.

We also have decided that we are done smoking. We haven't had one since Sunday night and I don't plan on restarting this weekend like we normally do. To avoid that we aren't going to go out. Guess what we're gonna do? We're going to go to the gym on Friday night and hang out in the pool then the jacuzzi. That's the plan anyways, we shall see, but can you believe it??? I can't. Then on Saturday we were thinking about going to the Spy Museum (important to get there before tourist season begins) then maybe have a nice meal before or after. :0) Sounds like a good weekend, without going out to the bars!!! We shall see if we can actually do it, but I am hoping that we stick to not going out. It would be good for us!

Last night I slept much better. Might have to do with the fact that I passed out before 10! I was up at 6 but I figured I had my 8 hours so my body was ok. I layed in bed (KRAYMERLESS! He loves his new bed too much!) til my alarm went off at 7 so that was decent.

Anywho. I might hit the gym tonight as well. Why? Because I can! The plan was to go tomorrow though so we'll see. :0)

Happy Wednesday everyone!

It is so wonderful that you are making the big push to stop smoking. Just stay away from smokers for a little while. It is great not to smell like smoke or burn holes in your clothes... I smoked for twenty years and the exercise you are doing will help with the weight gain think.

Wow, NO smoking and JOINING a gym! This is a big week for you! I'm so proud! And if you do decide to attempt a spin class... just remember one thing: all you have to do is peddle. That's it. The rest comes in time.

Yeah Kristy is quitting! I'm so proud of you. I chewed a lot of gum by the way. It kept my mouth busy. The hardest part was when I went to a party and had a drink, I didn't know what to do with my smoking hand, but I learned. Yeah!!!!

verah cool, Kris. the activities at the gym will help take yer mind off the cancer sticks. avoiding bars will also help. kinda dull but once you kick the nicotine monkey, you can risk bars again. I have every confidence in you, pal

Look into some of the classes offered at the gym....like I dunno...a spin class perhaps....!

I am done with smoking also! I was tempted the other day at work as all the smokers gathered under the smoking tree. It was hard but I just went about my business and felt superior for the rest of the day.

Great news there.

I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOO PROUD OF YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quitting smoking is the GREATEST thing you can do for yourself and for those who love you! Between the gym and the non-smoking, it sounds like you are really on track to a long, healthy life! (Unless, you get hit by a train or something!)
THIS IS GREAT NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OH girl, your plan to avoid smoking and going to the bars sounds HEAVENLY to me. Really. But then again, I hate the bar scene.

that is great! and a jacuzzi! it is fun to workout if you have a partner to go with you. that way they can laugh when you do something stupid, as I am known to do!
