Day 21

2 work outs today! I had to make up for missing Saturday and Sunday. I went to the gym this morning and played a game of horse, rode the recumbent bike for 10 minutes, then lifted weights. After I got home I was contemplating my 12:00 Pumptime class at Kees Camp, and I decided that I didn't work out hard enough at the gym. I was really glad I went. Jen kicked it into gear today, and I was grunting all the way through the class. Very funny!
I made some progress with my confidence this weekend. My friend was throwing a house warming party, and there was a great funk band playing. They wanted me to get up and sing, and although I was hesitant to get up; I did. I have NEVER been able to sing on command, and I have always had a lot of anxiety about singing in front of small groups of friends. It's not that I am not confident in my singing ability, but it's more about the words that come out. I have always felt like if I am not prepared; I will fail. So with a couple of drinks, and some boosts from my friends; I finally conjured up enough gusto to get up there and sing with them. I overcame a lot in those 2 songs, and they weren't anything spectacular, but I still enjoyed it.
I like that I am starting to feel stronger, I still haven't lost any weight, but that's what I get for giving myself a 'free day'.
Live Strong!
