Quitting the gym

About four years ago I joined the Y. This post is not about dissin the Y. Quite the contrary, I think it's a fear way to use the gym and support your community. 

However, it's pricey. It's a great value for what you get, but out of my current budget.  

  

In an effort to save a but, I've decided to quit the gym for a few months. 

I'll keep you posted with how things go. 

fat kid

Let's start out by saying I was a fat kid. I wasn't cute, I have to say that I was fat. I remember the day in gym class when the scale hit 100 lbs. I remember the names that I got called by the kids at school. I remember what it was like to have to buy clothes in the "adult" section of the store.

Kids are cruel, they just are. Back in the day, teachers just said that kids are cruel and nobody thought about punishing the bullys, we were just told to brush it off, and not get upset.

But this blog isn't about me being a fat kid. It's about what it is like to learn how to exercise. Because at age 38, I actually enjoy exercise.

In my late 30's i've learned that I will never be skinny. I WILL be healthy. I have lots of reasons to want to be healthy, and I hope to share those with you in this blog.
