Darnit!

I have to figure something out with my gym workouts. I am consistantly getting kicked out of the gym now by the security guard. Plus, if I ever start increasing my workout times, I will never get it all in by 6:15 or so. I'm not a morning person, so I can't go before work, and I would feel weird getting hot and sweaty during my lunch hour. I also wouldn't like driving out of my way to another gym on the way home from work. What to do?

I'm suffering from exercise ADD lately. Tonight I did 6 minutes on the elliptical, did some weight training, 2 more minutes on the elliptical, then 5 minutes on the bike (where I got kicked out of the gym). It's not that I'm too tired to keep going longer on the elliptical, I just get to the point where I don't feel like going any longer. It's the weirdest thing. It was nice when one of the girls was with me, I wish I had a regular workout partner sometimes to keep my mind occupied. I think that's it, I just get bored.

I exchanged my New Balance shoes for a different pair (still New Balance). I ended up with the store manager helping me since they were swamped when I came in. Turns out that the other shoes were actually a half-size too big, that's why my feet kept sliding forward in my shoes. The new ones are also a little smaller width, which I can tell they are a little tighter, but that might be a good thing. The new ones were more comfortable right away in the store, but I can't really tell how they'll hold up in the gym since I was just all over the place tonight. I got $20 back since these were cheaper (which I didn't know, it didn't affect my choice). On the way to the checkout, I just happened to mention my lap-band and turns out the manager has it too! We talked for a little bit and he gave me his card and said to call him if I ever need support with that or about shoes or whatever. It was very cool!

No workout tomorrow unless I happen to wake up early. I have my support group meeting again and hopefully it won't be arts and crafts time again. I sent an email to the program coordinator today telling her it's been 4 weeks and I want a fill! We'll see what happens next.
