Week 5: Things I didn't know

Current Weight 112.7kgs

I had a small weight loss this week so I didn't do as bad as I thought over the Easter period and my holiday away.
It is good to be back at the Coburg Leisure Centre and here are some things that I didn't know before I joined this program:
* That I would enjoy exercising in the morning. When I first began this program I though that I would be an afternoon/evening exerciser as I am definitely NOT a morning person. However I have surprised myself by sometimes being at the gym before 8am. I find that if I get to the gym early, then nothing can interrupt the time I have put aside to exercise. There is no friend who rings for a coffee date, no work call asking me to do some extra hours, no running out of time during the day. And most of the time I find that I am energized for the rest of the day.
* That I would be washing my hair every day. When at the gym, I work up such a sweat that there is no way that I can get away with the 'every second day' regime. Actually I should say 'glow' and not 'sweat' if I am true to the Men At Work song, “Down Under”. I am literally dripping with glow when I am working out!.
* That I would start to enjoy some of my workouts! The idea that I might like exercise is a foreign one. But this week I enjoyed a circuit workout, a water workout, my gym programs, CX works and Bodypump. I am enjoying them even more as I am seeing results in that my body is beginning to shape up. My board shorts are looser around my thighs and my jeans are looser around my waist. I may need to go clothes shopping soon!
