Thinking my way to an exercise program?

By katiebird | Published: May 30, 2006

I’m not going to eat between meals and I’m not going to take seconds. Just today.l And I’m going to try this for a year to see what happens.

I spent part of the holiday weekend playing with my camera trying to record my progress as I did some of the exercises I got from my brother-in-law (the physical trainer.) You can see the only successful shot of the set in the post below.e It was a fun project. I learned how to use both the timer and the remote control on the camera./ So, you’ll probably be seeing more photos of me as I work my way through the documents he gave me.

The weekend before last, I spent almost an hour with Chris first talking about the mission of Eat4Today and my history with obesity and my old fear that I’d never be able to control my tendency to weight gain. But it seems that a lot of his clients are people like me.. He’s used to working with exercise newbies. He’s worked with other cubicle/office dwellers and when I asked about exercises that could be done during a 10 or 15 minute break, he knew just what I meant.m And the packet he gave me has a couple dozen little routines that are perfect.

So, I’m not making any promises, at least not yet. I tend to take baby steps when I start something new.w And so I’ve been thinking about this. I’ve been picturing myself doing leg-lifts and stretches and lifting those weights in my new office at work.

Maybe as a test, I’ll take a photo of me trying one of the routines there?o It wouldn’t hurt to think about it.
