I read aN article about getting fit in the new year @ the gym. Most of the things I read ended up being DISCARDED from my puny little brain. A couple of things stuck, (good thing, these days!).
''KICK START YOUR HEART!'' JOG: If prescribed walking makes you feel like a senior mall paron, try a jog instead of a stroll. Running on the street or sidewalk can pulverize legs in disguse, so start on grass or gravel. When you begin wheezing, take a cab home & cry yourself to sleep.
''CLIMB!'' Too freezing to motivate for outdoor activity? Make like Rocky and jog up the stairs of your office building or apartment for 20 minutes at a strech. Going down can be tough on knees & shins, so walk (or even better, hop on the dam* elevator).
The rest of what the author wrote was way too much work, but I CAN do this! Well, except for the jogging, (I don't want to pulverize my legs or wheeze in my future), & the 20 min. jog up the stairs? (Good Lord, why the heck would I wanna get all sweaty when I'm gonna take the dang elevator anyway)?
Is anyone else freaking out? We only have 10 MORE days to eat & drink what we want! Forget the X amount of days to Christmas! 10 days, count them, 10 before we are judged by the people on ''their bandwagon of choice''! 10 more GLORIOUS DAYS TO eat, drink & be merry! I for ONE CHOOSE to ENJOY!

The only thing I'll fit into in

08 is a circus tent. My problem is I haven't met an exercise yet that I have liked.
