I went to the gym again today, this time for 45 minutes of 5-minutes on, 5-minutes off running/walking. That was kind of fun. Coworker Amanda was there, so now we can both say that we went to the gym. Heh. It was kind of weird knowing she was there on the elliptical trainer behind me on the treadmill. I feel kind of bizarre going to an all-woman gym. On one hand, I like only having women there because it feels nicer and because there are no meathead boys. On the other hand, I've never been surrounded by so many women at one time except for, say, an Ani DiFranco concert or the March for Women's Lives.

My Jennifer made a positively delicious dinner but I am still feeling snacky. DAMN THAT SNACKY FEELING!

I felt snacky, then I ate an entire bag of potato chips. Now I feel gluttonous.

I'm more of a sweet snacker than a salty snacker.

I get cravings either way. Some days I'll be wanting salty so bad that I can't even stomach the thought of eating something sweet...

All-womens gyms are sooo great. The dynamic is completely different from regular gyms. It's kinda like a giant slumber party, but with sweating.

I like the sound of your gym. If it were on my side of the city, I think I might look into it. Perhaps I'll try to find a womens' gym there.

I looked at the Planet Fitness near North Quincy, which is moving to right beside the Sozio's furniture store very shortly, but with the move they are getting rid of the women's only room. That was the only thing I liked about it, so I don't think I'll be looking into that any further. Plus I'd rather it be closer to home--less trafficy early in the morning, and more likely that I'll make it there on a weekend morning.

Wow, i didnt' realise they were shutting down the North Quincy one. I was a member there for almost 2 years. The women's room was great - the equipment was decent and not beaten up (and people actually cleaned their sweat off it), and it was a lot quieter than the rest of the gym. Sounds like a bad move on their part to get rid of that room.

I think it's more of a relocation than a closure, even if the new facility is over the bridge. I think their new facility is only one room, and that doesn't excite me very much.

Yeah, it stinks that it's not close to your home. Because it stinks that your home isn't closer to mine. :)

But if you ever want to check out my gym, I have a guest pass for you.

I would love to check it out! Let's meet up for that. I'd have to go in the morning, though, since I've changed my schedule.

Hrm. I can't go in the morning because of my schedule, unless we went at like 7:45AM (which I'm not the biggest fan of). Unless you wanted to do a weekend?

Yes, let's do it on a weekend, then.

Excellent. :)

Also, I don't know what time you get out of work (I think 7?) but many days I don't get out of my last home visit until 6:30, so I often don't get to the gym until 6:45 or so.

I don't get out until 7, every day!

Well see? 7's not so late when I'm getting to the gym at 6:45!

hurrah for the gym! Do you have anything specifically you're working towards?

Date: 2005-02-04 08:14 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] judecorp.livejournal.com
No, nothing specific outside of a return to my state of better health that I've had in previous years. I really want to just get back into having a stronger, healthier body. I'm not really a scale-watcher, a size person, or a fitness goal setter. I just want to know I'm doing my part to live a healthier lifestyle. I was bummed when I'd heard that my cholesterol had gone up, even though it wasn't "too high." So it's time.

Don't fight the "snacky." Have lots of little meals. It will up your metabolism. Also, don't worry so much about the snacky thing. Snack, just make sure it's healthy. Food is not the devil. I know you've probably heard all this before, but take it from someone who lost over 40 lbs. in one year (when I was in college). Eat small, frequent meals and don't be scared of carbs. Granted, I gained a little back (about 20), but 105 lbs. is too thin when you're 5'6" - I keep saying that, but my 130 lbs. don't feel it. . .

Or you can take my latest approach, which is to only keep food that you hate around the house. I pretty much limit it to pet food ;)

I'm the opposite, though, I don't ever want to eat at night, but daytime is hard to not constantly nibble in this stupid grey cubicle. Nighttime nibbling. . .that's different.

With my job, I'm really lucky if I get to eat one meal, let alone several small meals. There just isn't enough time or opportunity! And I don't think "food is the devil." When I say I'm feeling snacky, it's not because I'm hungry or even peckish, it's because I want some yummy junk food. Must fight the snacky! (Even though I just came back from a work party where I had a brownie. SO GOOD.)

I'm not out to lose weight or go on a diet or anything. I'm trying to cut certain unhealthy foods entirely out of my diet (like partially hydrogenated oils), and I'm trying to cut down on my intake of junk and take-out. Nothing major.
