thank God for small miracles
After six months of owning a gym membership (and not a cheap one either), I *gasp* went to the gym today. I don't know what it was, Paul has been bugging me to go because he started working out again which cuts into our after-work time together, so today I finally said, what the hey, I can take a leisurely stroll on the treadmill. Even though the old lady on the treadmill next to me burned 50% more calories in about half the time, I am still quite proud of the 200 calories I burned at the gym today. *pats self on back* I may even do it again sometime. Maybe. My mom always says about me in Chinese, "Ta bu xihuan dong." Which literally translates to "She doesn't like to move" but really it's almost stronger than that. It's like "She REALLY doesn't like to move, AT ALL." Which, yes, accurately describes me. And so now you understand why spending an hour walking on a treadmill (slower than an old lady and at the same pace as an old asian man...although I did walk longer than him, HA!) is such an accomplishment that I had to immediately come home and write a post to commemorate it. I seriously can't remember the last time I "moved" that much.
