Exercise Aversion

I gotta boast, we went out to dinner tonight and I did so well! I ate a healthy salad, light dressing. Stayed away from the cheddar cheese biscuits. I ate a lean steak with broccoli and asparagus. It was so yummy! The kids were little shits during dinner, so it didn't go as well as I'd hoped.



I also gotta boast, I went for a walk tonight. Not just any walk, a good hour of walking, 45 min of that was a breathless trial to keep up with Leigha. I did good! And thanks to Leigha for going with me!



Why did I go for a walk? Especially since the title of this post is exercise aversion. Well, let's just say it was go for a walk or sit down in front of the TV with a bucket of ice cream. Yeah, it was that kind of night. The day was good, the evening, not so good. Giving kids a bath - hell, especially when the littlest one poops in the tub, again.



I hate exercise, there is no 2 ways about it. It is not fun for me, no matter what I am doing. I avoid exercise because I feel like I am a fat lump that jiggles too much. Logically, I understand that the more I exercise, the less I will feel like a lump that jiggles too much, but I never said that my exercise aversion was a logical thing. Some people exercise to ward off stress, I usually don't. But, tonight, I made a conscious choice to get out of the house and do something good for myself.



Let's see how we feel in the morning.
