It's so hard to work out.  I absolutely loathe it.  I found a rockin "Slim in 7 Days" work out in fitness magazine last week and decided to try it yesterday.  That was the first and last time I will ever do it.  

I don't know how I did it, 5 days a week, when I competed.  I get so cranky and end up leaving in a horrible mood after a work out.  I wish I could find a routine that I really love.  I love yoga and pilates but studio prices are outrageous.  I am not paying $55.00 per session.  I might as well go back to personal training.   

All this was brought about after seeing my old swimsuit self from competition videos.  I'm not tooting my own horn, but I looked good and I miss that.  I also miss the strength and agility I used to have.  I couldn't even do a regular push up the other day.  I almost tore my arm off.  How sad is that?! 

So now I am on the search for a good work out regimen.  Here's to hoping I find what I'm looking for.

  1. I understand completely. Everytime they show gorgeous Carrie Prejean on the news in her bikini, I cringe inside, because I too once had a victoria secret body. Minus the 8' legs. I think it takes a long time to find a work out that is effect, doable, and doesn't leave you exhausted. Let me know what you discover. P.S. I look forward to every post of yours!

  2. Thanks Kate!! I look forward to your posts too!!

    It disgusts me to think I haven't worked out consistently in over a year. If I got on stage now....I would get the hook.
