You might not know it to look at me today, but I spent the majority of my life hating exercise. In fact, I'd been sedentary since childhood; I just never had an interest in physical activity. I didn't do active things with my friends,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I did as little as possible in gym class at school and I certainly didn't participate in any team sports. I just had no desire to move or sweat or run or jump around. I thought exercise was not only a form of torture, but also reserved for those already in shape,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which I was not.
Then, at age 35,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it dawned on me that I was tired of living the way I had been - obese and unhealthy. I rejoined Weight Watchers and, despite my lifelong opinions about activity, I made an even bigger decision: To join a gym.
That's right, me - the woman who hated sweating, the woman who didn't wear pants or sneakers in public (I didn't even own pants or sneakers!), the woman who was so self conscious about people watching her and laughing,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the woman who didn't know the first thing about any piece of gym equipment, the woman without much muscle strength, and with even less endurance,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the woman with no history of physical activity and very little coordination. Me. I joined a gym.
Since I was physically unfit when I began,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I started very slowly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], using the cardio machines for only minutes at a time because it was all my body could handle. And though I still dreaded it a little, I kept going back to the gym and did what I could.
Over months, I very gradually increased my time, intensity and activities. The thing that I am sure kept me going back is that I allowed myself to ease into it - challenging myself just enough for that sense of accomplishment but not so much that I was overwhelmed by trying to do anything unrealistic.
That plan worked.
Not only did I stick with my new active lifestyle, but within a few months I noticed something significant: I realized that I actually loved the way activity made me feel - immediately after and for the rest of the day. Not long after that, I began to look forward to going to the gym! And then I saw actual changes in my body too. I felt better and looked better! It almost seemed too good to be true. And those great feelings are what kept me going, kept me moving,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], kept me challenging myself,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], kept me active.
These days I love activity! So much in fact, I can barely sit still. And I now know my initial thoughts about it were completely untrue - It's not torture, it's not just for those already in shape, it's not for "other people" - It's for everyone, it's fun and makes you feel fantastic, inside and out!
These days, I still keep pushing and challenging myself. In addition to traditional activities, I also look for fun new events I can participate in or plan my own "activity adventures". I have an appreciation for my body I never had before - all thanks to activity.
I love my body, my new life, and the new me. And I wouldn't give up this active lifestyle for anything!
(see pic for what I look like as of July 2011, at age 39, on a recent trip to the gym for my weights class)
Hi, I'm Sheryl, a proud and devoted member of Weight Watchers. I've been on and off program since January 1989; but when I rejoined in September 2006 I made a promise to myself that I would never quit again. And I reached an amazing milestone for the first time in my life just last year: I hit goal weight and became a Lifetime member!
I've been overweight and had issues with food since I was a child,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], so I'm enormously proud of this accomplishment. Weight Watchers gave me the support,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], structure and tools I needed to change how I eat and change my relationship with food. But it did something even greater: encouraged me to start working out, something I never thought I would do.
Now I absolutely love being active and would describe myself as a fitness enthusiast. In an average week,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I work out at least 6 days, often 7. I enjoy challenging and moving my body in so many fun ways. I ride my bike, do yoga, run, lift weights, jump rope,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Zumba, spin, take Pilates, do stair workouts and recently tried rollerskating. I even took a cardio striptease class once! I'm willing to try just about anything activity related,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], given the opportunity.
If reading that makes you assume I was always active or have an athletic background,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I assure you that is far from the case. But I'll explain more about that in the next post. For now I just want to introduce myself and show you what I looked like when I started being active for the first time in my life at age 35 (see photo) and to get you thinking about being active and making it fun, even if you never have considered that a possibility before. Because being active has changed my life in so many positive ways and it can do the same for you!相关的主题文章：
