Dedication to Exercise

I’ve always loved to exercise, in particular running or walking. Since my miscarriages it hasn’t been a big part of my life for a number of reasons. The biggest reason is I just haven’t had the energy physically or emotionally. My body has been through a lot and the last thing I have felt like doing was exerting myself. Walking my dog around the block has been about all my body could handle.

I have realized that I need exercise back in my life. I’m not happy with my body right now. And I know that exercise is not only good for you physically but emotionally. I must say I’m in need of help in both areas. So I’ve made a commitment to myself to make exercise a priority again. I need to do it for myself and as well as a future baby that I might have. I want to be in the best shape possible.

I am going to try to mix walking, running, Taebo and Pilates to get as best a variety as I can. My husband and I are planning to get the Wii too which will be more added variety.

I walked about 2 ½ hours on Saturday and 2 hours on Sunday. It was beautiful out so I needed to take advantage. I have committed to continue this to better myself. I have realized I haven’t taken care of myself the way I should be.

On a side note, AF came on Saturday; right on time at exactly 28 days. I just made an appointment for Thursday, March 18th for a 3-D ultrasound to hopefully finally get some answers as to what is going on. I’m scared but I’m to the point where I just need to know so we can move forward. The unknown is driving me crazy.
