New Highs Despite A Few Lows

Day 70

My new Wii Fit age is.... wait for it... 25! A month ago my Wii fit age was 49 and I'm only 42. I've come a long way baby! I'm also happy to report that I've graduated to Wii Fit Boxing - EXPERT!

I've managed to accomplish these things this week despite a battle with allergy and sinus trouble. Every morning I wake up and feel like crap. I sleep in and then say "I'll work out tonight." Every night I come home with the intention of just going to bed. But, I see my gear in the corner and remember that I've got goals. So, I throw on my exercise clothes, make my way downstairs, and wait for the familiar "oh" when I step on my Wii balance board.

At the beginning of every workout, the same "Woe is me" refrain runs through my brain. But, by the end, when I'm sweating, out of breath and secretly praying for a power outtage, I feel proud. Sometimes, I have to take it minute by minute in order to stick it out. There are days when I don't feel a hundred percent, but I exercise anyway because a bad workout is still better than no workout at all.

I'm all stocked up on Claritin and hoping that does the trick. Spring hasn't quite sprung yet. But, my nose knows it's on the way.

Cheers!
Margaret
