I let my gym membership go about a month after I started the new job - so 2 months ago now. I loved the gym but it was $100. a month, about 12 miles the opposite direction from my job and in heavy commute traffic. I know that the only time I would have gone was on the weekends.
Of course I had high hopes for going on walks and using my little hand weights to keep my fitness level up. I thought I would just put music on and dance like Kirsty Ally said she did. I researched the possibility of buying my favorite aerobic machine to have at home - at $5000. Tom put the kibosh on that idea. So nothing has happened. A few bike rides, that's about it.
And oh do I feel it. I am all soft and jiggly and I have put in inch on around my hips and waist. I get out of breath just walking. It is bad.
My employer has a bunch of exercise equipment in his garage that he keeps saying he is going to bring into our warehouse for all of us to use. We have made some preparations - but I don't know when it might really happen - so I joined a gym. It is a month to month thing so I can cancel easily. Lots of equipment, pretty good parking, it's kind of smelly but it's right on the way to or from work. And cheap.
I joined 5 days ago - I haven't gone yet.
