Kiko asked about how I felt after exercising. Pretty tired mostly! I’ve been trying to ride faster although I didn’t go very fast today. It is really tiring though. My legs hurt while I’m riding but not for very long afterwards. Shouldn’t I be enjoying exercise by now?

What do you think?

I was reading this blog before & then stopped because it bothers me. Someone in another blog referenced it today though & I went back and read more stuff. It’s this acceptance thing and why am I working so hard and maybe it is pointless and I should just accept it. I don’t know. What do other people think?

Well not really but I considered it. I didn’t sit up very far (does 2″ count?), I’m not sure how good an idea this is.

So I’m thinking you shouldn’t exercise & eat afterwards? It made my stomach hurt. It occurred to me that I had a very lousy weekend. And I didn’t do that bad on eating. I even exercised one day. I think that I really can do this. Guess it really can be about choices and not emotions. I’m proud of me!

See the rate this blog thing on the right hand side? If you all rate it then hopefully my number will go up. I’m not sure why I’m at 7 but I want to be higher.

This is interesting. I wanted to go eat something tonight. Spilling your guts for 50 minutes makes you (well at least me) want comfort food. I decided that I could go down to Taco Bell and get something for my dinner. Then I realized that I didn’t want to do that. I didn’t want to make myself feel better with food. I did have my little 55 calorie piece of chocolate when I got home but it didn’t have any impact on how I felt. I think that I’m actually beginning to change my relationship with food. So this is good I think!
