I'm not saying that I don't like to exercise becuause I do enjoy it but it seems/feels like my life revolves around exercising and food. How do you get past that feeling? Do you ever get past that feeling? I'm so tired (and bored), exercising is supposed to be fun and give you more energy isn't it. I exercise 5-7 days a week for an hour or an hour and half..... if I do anything less my husband says "that was kinda weak wasn't it?" I feel like if I don't exercise that long that I didn't really do anything. I'm finding myself dreading going out to the garage/gym.

It really seems like that is what my life conists of and thinking about food. These past few weeks I realized that I was eating it seemed like all day long (even though I wasnt hungry) so I started setting the timer on my phone to make myself wait at least 4hrs between meals. I can't stay out of the kitchen, I'm always opening the fridge or the pantry and just looking. I check the timer on my phone several times to see how much time is left until my next meal. I hate being home all day but if I stay gone my husband is always asking me "when are you gonna get your exercise in?" I almost feel like I am losing it.

I know I should be grateful that I have that much time to exercise and I probably shouldn't feel this way because alot of people simply don't have that much time in their day to exercise. there's always so many other things that I want to do during the day but by the time I get my exercise in (and get all my other chores done) I don't have time to start anything else.

I don't know Maybe I'm just having a "poor me" day. I hate feeling this way.

Does your Xbox have the kinect? I use mine to workout and they have several different Zumba games.

It did but the kids sold it to get a game . I think I'm gonna move the DVD player to the garage/gym and break out my exercise DVDs

I agree!! I am only doing 30 min 4 times a week. You should be proud of that hour.

Finding the time to exercise is the hardest for me. I have an in home gym. I set up a flat screen with DVD and dvr for my fav shows. Sooo I have to watch them on the treadmill. I do this three times a week for an hour. Makes me feel great and I always wonder why I fight it so much. I've come to the conclusion it's my fat cells trying to stop me lol. I get bored too. Now that the weather has been sooo nice I've been walking the neighborhood. Shake it up when it gets boring. In Austin we have tons of hike and bike trails I take advantage when I can. Don't give up!! Don't let the fat cells win!!
