Not a real AIBU, but im posting here for traffic!
Ive just joined the gym, im seriously unfit. I have tried to lose weight but without exercise it hasnt worked, and ive recently had a kick up the backside because I have abused my body so much that my body is suffering.
I have high blood pressure and the drs recently sent me for blood tests, it appears that somehow i dont have diabetes, thyroid issues, or even cholestoral issues, but I also have PCOS... my point is, my body is showing signs of being under strain because of my weight.
I was 21 stone at the beginning of the year, im currently at 19 10.
So I have realised how unfit i am and its driven the point home more that actually I need to sort myself out.
I have cleaned up my eating and I am wanting to sort an exercise routine, and hopefully this will help my body to heal as i lose weight.
I have a small work out plan arranged. it consists of 10 minutes walking at a moderate pace on the treadmill, 5 minutes on the stair machine, a bit of high intensity stuff, and a small bit of weight training. Ive also signed up for loads of aqua classes. I have one most days, 2 on some others. I really enjoy these classes.
I would like to explore a few other options where classes are concerned, has anyone here had the same kind of experience?
I can just see myself going a bit mad if i havent got any other classes to mix it up with.
any thoughts would be really appreciated. im scared of the gym classes all being too much, and me falling about, gasping and people staring.
thanks everyone!
