The Y and Me

So I went to the Y last night to swim. And on my way home I found myself thinking what the hell happened to me? In the last four months I have quit smoking and joined a gym. A gym I have actually voluntarily gone to on my own. Seriously folks this is me we are talking about.

Me the smoker who smoked for nearly 14 years and not to mention the last time I went to a gym was something like 6 or 7 years ago and it was only mostly because my best bud wanted someone to keep her company. Not because I had the ambition to do so on my own at the time. Not that I regret having tried it out back then but it wasnt my thing.

But now somehow in the last four months I went from a smoker who didnt want to stop smoking and who was totally not into the whole gym idea to someone who has quit smoking and put serious thought into the whole gym thing and has actually gone once already on her own.

I am hoping that with the positive experience I had last night swimming lengths by myself and the new go healthy attitude I have recently adopted I might actually make a decent go at this and get my body into shape again. Only time will tell but I am hoping to get in a couple of half hour swim sessions during the week after the kids go to bed. And then some time in on the weekends when the kids are in their programs too.

Heres hoping it works out that perfectly 🙂

Until tomorrow…
