In a moment of weakness, I signed-up to participate in sbparent.com's fitness challenge.
I had barely exited the dressing rooms at Nordstroms, empty handed, after trying on swimsuits for the upcoming swim season, when my cell phone rang. My first thought was, "Hah! Yeah right!" but then a flashback of the lumpy bumpy post-baby body wrapped in Lycra made me say, "Yes. I'll do it."
So this morning at 8:30am I reported for my 6-week tour of duty at the home of a fellow PTA mom who led me through the "Core and Beyond" DVD, in which she just happens to have a very intimidating starring role. 22-minutes of lunging, twisting, bending and pushing later, I dragged my sweaty and shaky lumpy bumpy body back home.
I'm a bit scared to wake up in the morning. My muscles aren't going to be happy about being awakened from their long hibernation. But I do think I'll hold off buying a swimsuit for a few weeks, and that thought might make this body's complaints worthwhile.
