I took a leap today and joined the new YMCA in Ponca City. It's an awesome facility and I am excited to begin a routine of exercise. After joining today, we decided to try out the indoor track for a walk and it's very nice! Walking around looking at all the equipment, WOW. I had to wonder if I'll ever be comfortable walking around all the people that obviously know what they are doing, in their cute little workout outfits. It also occurred to me.......geez, what I am gonna wear? I talked to myself though alot before making this decision and have decided I know I need to be there, and I need to not care what anyone else thinks and do my own routine that I am comfortable with and then maybe someday, I can have my cute little gym clothes and be able to hop on those machines and make it look effortless........! I purchased the family membership and look forward to making this a family evening event. My husband is not totally sold out yet on coming with us, but trust me........he will be! :)
After a very productive day all around, we made a quick family trip to Stillwater to get Clay his birthday present..(he turns 17 on Monday). He also needed some special "Top feed" for his show sheep. I have no clue about this, but we ended up having to drive to Perkins to get it, and of course, everyone is starving by 7:30, and we are in Stillwater. I announce that I won't be eating, i brought my protein bar, but they could drop me off and let me shop and go eat. They opted for "Whataburger" and ate in the car on the way home. Let me tell you, on day 7 of nothing but Protein shakes and bars, WOW, did that smell good. I was able though, to take my mind somewhere else, and actually was surprised how strong I felt about it.
This is it for me, I can tell, my mind has finally gotten in line with where I need to be, and It's exciting to feel a sense of control and little steps of accomplishment.!! Now praying I can get my family on board to a lifestyle change of much healthier habits.
