A rare situation

Oh my god I am out of shape

without comments

After the bed and a dining room table, I purchased one last thing* for my apartment before I fall back into savings mode – an elliptical machine, for to lose those extra pounds and inches.

I picked it up from a Dick’s Sporting Goods on Wednesday (christ those things are heavy) and assembled it last night, which only took a couple hours. Before I went to bed, I started a half-hour weight loss program. Now, I haven’t gone running in about a year and a half, due to not living anywhere near a good running area since I moved from Des Moines, but I didn’t think I was doing that badly. I take the stairs at work, I walk to the grocery store in good weather…but fifteen minutes into this workout and I had to quit. Who’s a fatty fat-fat? Me. I am :’(

I don’t have any specific weight loss goals, other than that I’d like to be able to see the muscle tone in my abs and not resemble an S when I look at myself in profile. I believe this is reasonable and possible.

* and also a dryer, next week I think.
