Starting over...sort of.
I have just been in a horrible funk since I got sick. I haven't been able to get back into exercising like I want. Everytime I tried to do what I did before getting sick, I would get discouraged and disgusted with myself for not being able to do it. I got to where I would dread even writing out my exercise plan for the day because I knew I would fail. I had one of those "aha" moments last night. My body can't function they way I've come to expect it to function. So I decided to just start back over like I did with my exercise in January—playing the Wii, walking, and some WATP. Once I can get my endurance back up then I can start adding back the things that I have come to love doing and before long it will be an integral part of my life.
FYI—I did 30 minutes last night and I felt so accomplished and not like I was failing myself by only doing that amount of time. (I was doing between 1-3 hours a day).
