Inertia Creeps…
[/gratuitous Massive Attack lyric, because it kinda fits]
So. Here it is, two weeks before we head off for the beach, and I am feeling bloated, tired and totally out of shape. Sigh. This always happens to me, vacation sneaks up on me while I’m busy with Life & Its Consequences and I end up going to the beach feeling blobby and unattractive. I HATE that, dammit. Therefore, I am attempting to put in some serious exercise time before we go.
Let’s face it, body image isn’t so much about what the scale says, or what the size tag on your clothes is. It’s more psychological than anything. If I stay on an exercise program, I will feel better, therefore I will look better even if it’s only in my mind. *g*
Today’s attempt: ran my usual 3.25 mile loop. Or, well, jogged/walked. Actually managed more non-walking than I thought I would, though the heat was kind of a downer. It was at least ten degrees cooler than it was this time last week, but low 80s still feels hot when you’re running in the sun :-/
Okay, I need some iced coffee now. Maybe later I’ll come back and bitch about writing blurbs O_O
