So I've been watching the Olympics, pretty regularly over the last week or so and I have to say I'm really enjoying it. I'm not watching the boring stuff like table tennis or shooting or whatever but to each their own. I'm officially a Michael Phelpsian, hehe and have a new love for the male divers. Wow are they "built". BUT it also makes me think about myself. These athletes can work out 8-12 hours a day and push themselves to these great lengths to be the best and I can't even seem to get off my tush to do my treadmill 1/2 an hour a day. Wow. I guess all I have to remember is that I'm not out trying to win an Olympic medal but I'm worth pushing myself and if they can give themselves 8-12 hours a day I can do 1/2 an hour for sure!! The doc wants me on the treadmill 3-4 times a week starting with 20 minutes a day and going up in 5 minute increments every week. So by Christmas I should be doing 1 hr and 50 minutes a day 4 times a week. Holy crap. I guess theres no harm in it. I'm just sooo lazy. I'm really going to have to push myself. But its worth it. I'll be healthy for the first time in like 6 years and maybe we can finally get pregnant!! (so i can gain a bunch of pregnancy weight and start over!!!) haha.
What About Kim?
- Kimberly
- Yelm, Washington, United States
- I'm 26, in love with my husband of almost 7 years. I'm an Army Wife and couldn't be prouder to serve my country in the background. I love my puppies but would love to have a baby too. They'll do as my babies for now. I live in Yelm Washington which is about 40 minutes from anywhere important. I love to read, have to have music going all the time and love to watch a good drama. I love my family and would do anything for any of them. I'm slightly addicted to myspace, am learning facebook, and am not ashamed! I love 7 Up and cheeseburgers. I'm a sucker for toddlers and will generally get them in trouble because I don't have that "adult" buffer that keeps me in line. I'm overweight and working on it. I'm vertically challenged, have brunette hair and blue blue eyes. I'm fabulous.

How about reading a book while walking on the treadmill, does that work? Or can you watch TV while doing the treadmill? I need to start some excercising too, now that it's cooling down at night, I think I'll try to take evening walks.
I know! I think it's funny that I'm trying to lose a bunch of weight now, before I'm even ready for kids who will wreck my body, but then again...Heidi Klum has 3 kids...
