You know how January comes along and everyone is in a frenzy to set New Year's goals - most likely without the intention of EVER doing them? Well I did that. I made a goal back in January to be more consistent in my exercising. I am not fat or overweight. I did well for a while. Then life got in the way. Then I wanted to go walking. The sun was sunny and the rains were gone. But alas....I am just a girl and walking by myself along country roads is not my idea of a good time. Maybe I'm just paranoid. I keep looking over my shoulder to see if a car is trailing me. One did stop one time while Russell was running and I was...ahem...trying to. Russell was long gone by then so I had to run. This brings me to my dilemma.
I want to be able to walk. I need to be able to walk. I have noticed little body changes here and there and need to be able to exercise. The Wii isn't my idea of exercise. Walking in place doing steps isn't taking me anywhere. I would like to get a treadmill or stationary bike. I could really go places on either of those.
My goals revisited....somehow find a treadmill or stationary bike so I can exercise indoors while the rains come down outdoors. It does that A LOT where I am.

Look on craigslist! We bought our treadmill on craigslist for $100! Good luck!!
I am struggling with finding an exercise I like too. I completely understand about the paranoia during walking outside.
I have an elliptical that I love because it feels it a little like I am 'flying' up and down, not just walking on the treadmill, which for some reason I don't keep up with as well (I seem to be treadmill-challenged! lol).
In my search to find an 'exercise' I like, I weeded today (it was a beautiful day) and enjoyed that immensely. Now I'm thinking about planting flowers and of course, more weeding, and looking forward to it.:)
