Life lessons from the elliptical machine

1. The day you work out is NOT, I repeat, NOT the day to eat light
- I ended up with a blood sugar of 60

2. Manual 1 setting and Weight Loss 1 setting are NOT, I repeat, NOT the same thing at all!
- I thought my lungs were going to burst, my legs burst into flame, and my ass explode!

3. Wearing an Ipod while doing yoga isn't very soothing. Or relaxing.
- the earbuds kept falling out. Very distracting! The upside of the Ipod was that I didn't have to listen to the chatter of those around me as I did yoga in a rather public-ish place.

And so, the saga of my working out begins. Today was day two at the gym at work. I went Monday, and today, and I plan to go Friday. I think that 3 days a week is a rather solid start. I used to think that if I didn't go every day that it wasn't worth the effort. I've revised that opinion. Mainly b/c if I tried to do this every day, I'd probably fall asleep at my desk in the afternoon, or not be able to walk enough to come into work by the 4th morning!
