THANK YOU!

I like to go to the gym and do a bit of weight lifting (very little), some treadmill, elliptical, and biking too.

When I go on the treadmill or the elliptical my feet go numb after about 15 minutes. I have grown used to this, but today wasn't normal. I almost pulled a "biggest loser". By this I mean falling flat on my face and rolling off of the treadmill onto the floor because I couldn't pick up my feet. I tripped and stumbled, but luckily I didn't fall flat on my face.  I want to send a big thank you out to everyone who saw me do this and didn't burst out laughing. I don't know if I could have not laughed if I saw this happen. I don't' know why my feet go numb, but that might have been enough embarrassment to get me to the Dr. to see why.

Today was different in that my feet didn't just go numb, but they got to the point where they really started to hurt. I think it is time to invest in a new pair of shoes. The question is do I wait for them to go on sale? I tend to put this off for a while, but my feet have been reminding me all day that my shoes suck!

I also want to put a BIG thank you out to The Biggest Loser for making it OK for fat people to go to the gym. No one ever looks and me with the "your too fat to be doing this" look. I love that I am not the only fat person there trying to get healthier. I appreciate that people at our rec. center are friendly and kind. I have been places that are not like that. So, THANK YOU.

But my BIGGEST THANK YOU goes to the BUFF FIREFIGHTERS. There is nothing better then watching them as they lift weights. Not only are they amazing in all that they can do, but they are HOT! Thank you to all you wives, girlfriend, mother, etc. for sharing them with me, even if only for a short while.
