Recently I got caught at a class without a sports bra
it's something that VERY RARELY happens, but since I workout 5-6 days a week, it had to happen some time!!!! I was thinking last night about what other stuff has changed now that I'm a fitness freak!!!
1) You don't buy tops "just because they fit" you buy them because you can't see your sports bra underneath them!
2) You have more "workout clothes" than regular clothes
3) You do a "workout wash" every other day and your other half is complaining that you never wash HIS clothes
4) People don't find it strange when you tell them you're running a half marathon - even though you think you've finally flipped!
5) You can discuss the merits of each particular brand of protein powder in GNC along with the "big boys"
6) The receptionist at the gym misses you if you're sick!
7) You go on holiday with your kickboxing club/workout group and find it hard to think of "other friends...."
8) People look at you funny when you reply to their question of, "What are you thinking about?" with, "Kickboxing!"
9) You have more than one pair of "running socks" - heck, you even HAVE running socks!
10) You have more pairs of trainers/running shoes than dress shoes
11) People don't recognise you when you're wearing "normal clothes"
12) You start to wonder if you could get away with wearing sweat pants to work...
13) A two hour commute by pedal bike is starting to look exciting!
14) You need to sort your workout clothes into separate drawers for "tops" "pedal pushers" "bike shorts" "martial arts uniform" "winter running leggings" "warm-up/cooldown tracksuits"
15) You have a whole drawer of sports bras!
16) All your meals MUST be portable since you are either travelling to or from the gym at mealtimes!
17) You've forgotten what colour your couch is
18) You can't name the whole cast of your favourite soap
19) Your two hobbies are "exercise" and "sleep"
20) No-one can ever reach you on the phone, since you're always "in the gym" - plus it takes 2 days to realise there's a message on the phone!
Maybe this is just me...
Feel free to add your own!
