It stands in the corner. When I use it I swear. When I finish using it I feel great. I have a love/hate relationship with my treadmill.
Why is it so hard for me to feel motivated? I fight with myself to even get on the thing, and then when I'm actually working out and seeing how many calories I'm burning I get so excited. At the same time, I'm swearing to myself because I feel like I am about to die or be drowned in sweat (ewww) but as I step off I feel almost giddy. I'm so weird.
I have a new roommate moving in this week and so I have to move my dear treadmill out of the spare room and into the living room. I think this is actually a good thing because it will be out in the open, staring me in the face, challenging me to exercise.
Goal this week: do NOT be lazy. Work out. Savour the endorphins (is that what they're called?)
In mosaic news, I've decided to do a flower motif, kind of abstract. My kit comes with some basic tiles, but I really wish we had a good art supply store here. I'm pretty sure I'll end up buying second hand dishes and smashing them to bits. Fun!
Hope all is well with everyone and will hopefully post pictures soon!

Finding the motivation is hard at first. I had to force myself to the gym on every single day when I first started trying to lose weight and I didn't stop for two months. When it had snowed 8 inches one day I decided that I would stay home from the gym because of the weather. I made it two hours before I had to go- it had become habit and I felt guilty for not going. Maybe if not the motivation, just schedule it as part of your day?
