Went Back to the Gym. Yay!
So, I went back to the gym this morning. I want to do at least thirty minutes a day. Today I did the elliptical but I will probably start working out in the pool most of the time. I think the smartest thing I did was wear my ankle brace. I did not have a lot of problems after my workout.
So, we shall see if I keep it up. But, it felt really good being back. I know I just have to start slowly. But, I know how I am so I'm going to have to keep signs posted that say "Slow Down Ticia".

yay. high five.
baby steps.. listen to your body. pace yourself. don\'t over do it. I know how it is. If I am having a good day I tend to go gung ho but then pay for it later. I like that idea to have signs that say \'slow down\'
That\'s great about the ankle brace. good idea.
Pool exercise is so nice. I want to get into water but it costs money during the winter months.
i have to push myself to keep active as I have fibromyalgia as well as arthritis. but exercise is important. I walk my dog. she is my incentive.
Great journal entry.
Thanks so much. I understand having to push yourself. That\'s what I did today. I pretty much kicked myself out of my apartment this morning. I\'m trying to solve my insomnia problem and I promised my doctor I would get back into a regular routine. Working out usually helps resolve the sleep issue so hopefully it will do the trick again.
Pets are a great and they do help keep you active. When I move to a place that allows pets I will probably get a dog. They make great companions.
Have an awesome night.
