Day 36 - Made it to the Gym

Yes. I made it to the gym after work, but I didn't stay long.

I felt really strong and excited as I pulled into the parking lot of the gym. I went to the locker room and changed clothes. I walked up the stairs to the treadmills with the TV's. I started the thing up and realized that I forgot my Exercise Log Book, that I made. Oh well. Then, I realized that I forgot to enter in my weight so that the machine would calculate my calories burned and my heart-rate. UGH!! Oh well. I continued to walk. I walked at a speed of 3.2 at an incline of 2.5. I walked for 15 mins.

Then, I moved to the eliptical machine. My plan was to do 15 mins on it. I remembered to enter my weight this time, but after only 5 mins.... I began to get really hot and tired. So, I got off. I "thought" about going downstairs to do some of the weight machines, but I was too pooped! So, I went to the locker room and gathered my things and decided that I was going to go and BUY that Jillian Michael's DVD!

I didn't go Walmart, tho. I had to go to CVS to pick up my RLS medication, so I went to Target instead. The DVD was on sale for $9.00, which made me happy! Then... as I was looking around at some of the other exercise equipment that they had... I heard a voice say... "Look, who it is!"  It was a child from my preschool class and her mom! The little girl saw what I had in my hand and said... "Mommy has that! That's her work out." I then, asked the mom if she thought it was good. She said that she really liked it. I was glad to hear this because now... TWO people have told me that they liked it! So, I got it and headed home.

So far, my pedometer says that I have walked... 6012!! YAY!! I made it past 6000 steps!! Wahoo!

I doubt that I will use the DVD today, but I will try my best to use it in the morning, before work. I am going to see my mom after work tomorrow. So no gym time.
