Ranting, read at your own risk…
Just feel like ranting today, so if you’re not one for listening to bitching, prolly should look away.
Anyhow… naturally I know the *correct* way is the long way… but that in itself tends to be the biggest challenge of all for me. Honestly, the diet/exercise all that, is really not so bad. Especially once you get in the habbit, it all kinda falls into place. It’s nice to have routines and structure…
But it’s the waiting that kills me. It’s like everyday you do them same thing (ok you switch it up a little but still) and everyday… I look the same. Of course, no one see’s their results over night, it takes a LOT of time, especially when you do things the right way.
It just REALLY makes me actually wish I was in a place with NO mirrors at all. Even though, the mirror tends to be my biggest motivation, it’s equally my biggest let down too. Cuz I look in there every day and every day I see the SAME. If I could look in the mirror ONCE A MONTH… now THAT would be great! I know then i would totally SEE a difference.
You know those stupid shows where they do make overs on people, and they have that big "BEFORE" shot, and the person see’s that pic of them and it turns around into the mirror and it shows the NEW and improved them? Yeah, how COOL would it be to have THAT? I need one of THOSE.
Just put me in a gym, with lots of eliptical equitment, some rowers, tread mills, stationary bikes, lots of weights and weight machine stuff, and yoga mats, and medicine balls, but NO mirrors! Gimme a ballenced diet for ME and take that "Before" shot, have it pinned to the wall for me to look at every day… and then at the end of the month, turn that pic around and show me my PROGRESS!!! God I would LOVE that soooo much!
They need to have a show like THAT. All these stupid "Celebrity Fit Club" and "Biggest Loser"… though there was one show I thought was Okay, I only saw it ONCE though. They had a group of people who walked across the country, and THAT was pretty cool. And they were all fatties (like ME)… I would LOVE to be on something like THAT. It would be such a nice way to get access to everything i NEED.
…Oh well, sitting around hoping for things never got anyone anywhere. So, off to work I go.
