I just have to write a post about myprogress where exercise is concerned. For those of you who know me well, you know that I have never been...well, let's say, "athletically inclined"....hence, I simply never learned to like exercise. In times past I have tried to exercise but usually wound up hurting myself or I didn't do it long enough to see any benefits only the soreness. But since working with my friend, Jeanette, who sort of acts as my personal trainer, I am loving it. I have been exercising regularly for over 6 months now and I can't believe the wonderful changes in my body. Now lest you think that I am this skinny svelt thing now, well, forget that! The great changes I am talking about are: no terrible achiness when I wake up in the morning, no tailbone pain at all anymore, no low back pain, increased arm strength so holding grandkids and hefting groceries are so much easier, greater balance and flexibility, less shoulder and neck pain...I am telling you, that if someone had told me that the majority of my little pains that sometimes wake me up at night would go away if I exercised, I would not have believed it. But that is exactly what has happened. Unbelievable! Even though I haven't lost a lot of weight yet, even my clothes fit better especially through my stomach area. I highly recommend it! Who knew it was SOOOOOOO good?
