One is the Lonliest Number

 So yesterday  I actually made it to the gym. Well I was kind of badgered into going to the gym..

 I was home sick with cramps and lovely case of PMS when I decided to go online to see who was on (actually it was to see if Boy was on) when I saw Jill was online.  I decided to message her and see what she had been up to lately and we got to talking about lack of motivation fin working out.

Okay, usually I do workout and eat healthy. But lately, I've been feeling blah and frumpy. I just like to sit in my sweat pants and sleep whenever possible. . Not to mention I felt bloated from my period and my fav pair of Juicy jeans were not fitting right.

So she convinced me to work out with at the gym for a little because she needed the motivation and so did I.  I begrudgingly put on a pair of loose yoga pants, a hoodie and worked out. At first I kept yawning but eventually I felt better. We ended up talking about our guy troubles, the overly skinny hos that begrace the gym in hopes of finding a man, and why we just can't seem to loose that little bit of jiggle that we both have. What started as a 20 min romp on the tredmill turned into an hour. It actually made me realize how much I miss hanging with a girlfriend sometimes and how I get lonely every now and then. So we made an agreement that we would try and stick to our routines and rotate between LA Fitnesses.

Maybe I do spend way too much time alone..

Stay with it~

I too fall into patterns of being a "couch potato" ~ coming home from work and just watching TV show after TV show. For the past month I've been motivated to loose this tummy buldge and get in better shape and I've been working out about 4x a week but each time I have to tell myself, "Nandi, you'll feel so much better and energized after you workout, so just DO IT!" Stick with it! It's a great way to get rid of that extra energy (lol) you have when you're not in a relationship. All the best! xx

I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN...

I too, am a single woman, living alone. It's been a long time since I've even been in a relationship, so I continually work hard to maintain my ultimate relationship with Christ so that I won't go bonkers. For the most part, I enjoy being alone, probably because as an only child, I had to find ways to entertain myself growing up. Fighting the battle of the bulge is not an easy thing. Even though you know you should work out and are aware of all the benefits of doing so, at times you still have to look for the motivation to do what you know is right. I'm glad you and your girlfriend were able to hook up and motivate each other. Sometimes we just HAVE to let the couch go and stop using sleep (boy, do I know about THAT) as an escape mechanism. Take care of yourself and I look forward to hearing more from you.
