I'm morbidly obese . I'm horribly, horribly fat . I'm dyspraxic, and terrified of exercising - to the point I've seriously deconditioned myself and get out of breath just walking 2 miles to the shops .

BUT -

I've just finished a whole hour of pilates !!

I wobbled, groaned and hyperventilated my way through . At one point I seriously thought I was going to vomit . My arms are still shaky and my legs have almost given up . I'm enormously relieved the class was done on zoom . I totally failed several exercises and had to grip onto the table leg a few times ...

But I did it !!!

Totally finished the class - huge smile on my face - and looking forward to next week !!

Well done! Pilates is BRILLIANT! You will seriously ache tomorrow haha, but it's such brilliant exercise and it's amazing how quickly you can see results from it.

Fantastic OP, keep up the good work and you’ll see results! You will be sore tomorrow but it’ll be worth it! Star

I once fell down the remaining few steps at the gym after my legs buckled from an intense spin class so your class could of gone worse, haha. They got in on camera as well, bet they had a right laugh at my expense Blush

Kudos OP Star

That's awesome OP, go you! Remember the feeling so when you start doubting you can do it/making excuses (not judging - we've all been there!) you can remind yourself how great you feel now and push yourself to do it.

Well done OP! Def going to feel the burn tomo but so worth it. Get yourself some Epsom bath salts to help relieve muscle tension Flowers
