New addiction...

I have found a new addiction! Exercise! OMG.... Yeah.. I'm a doofus. I feel so energized. I don't know why I haven't done it like this before. I woke up this morning and all day I've felt kinda tired. Well, I decided on the way home, that I was going to get on the elliptical machine again. I got on it the other day and was only able to stay on it for about 10 minutes before I was in great pain. My legs have been sore, but I didn't want to wait til the soreness went away because it would be just as hard the next time. So I pulled on my shorts, grabbed a bottle of H20 and went to it. I put in a movie (Sum of all Fears with Ben Affleck (HOT!) ). I thought to myself I would go 10 minutes and let that be it. NO! It got to 10 minutes. 'YOU CAN DO 15!' I told myself. It got to 15 minutes. 'DO 20!' So I went to 20. Then I said I'd do 1/2 mile. NO! 'GO FARTHER!' So I did. 25 mintues. 'GO!' .8 miles... 'YOU GO GIRL!' I wasn't really paying attention to the movie by this point. I kept pushing and pushing. I was almost at a mile. I was cheering myself on. "You can do it!" "GO GO!" LOL. I wasn't actually having fun. So I did 1.01 miles. Burned 278 Calories and 48 Carbs in something like 32 minutes. Yeah I know that 1.01 miles in 32 minutes is sad, but hey, don't ruin my victory. I got off and my legs were feeling a little weird so I did a little jog in place to get my legs to feeling right. Then I just went ahead and walked outside and walked around the house twice. I feel so great!! My mom has been telling my to exercise and everyone else has to. So yeah... I've found my cure for my tiredness. I think I could get addicted to this feeling. I know how some people can make exercise an unhealthy addiction, but I don't think I'll have that problem. So anyway.. have a great day!!
