The 30, I mean almost 31 year lazy streak!

I have NEVER been one to work out. Even in college when it was so cool to buy "workout" clothes and go to the gym, get hot body, and socialize I was never motivated-physically. Now in my head---oh yeah--I was all about trying to be skinny and wanting that oh so sleek physique, but it never literally registered into any kind of grand action. Then when my cardiologist gave me the out and said I would probably never be able to be one of "those", I was happy b/c it justified my sedentary lifestyle. But now, not so in love with my current bod, I wish something would enable me the energy and gusto to be one of "those". You see, I'm kind of an extremist when it comes to just about everything in my life. It's all or nothing. And now I'm kind of sad that my head is wanting to be a work out girl and I physically can't do it. Dang, I can hardly dig a dang hole in the yard to plant a flower without having to sit down, but yet I'm not ready to have my chest cracked open again to get the valve replacement I need to gain the stamina to do it! The advice I was given was to wait until I'm like 40 before undergoing another open heart surgery b/c there is no telling how long the valve thing would hold--so best to wait it out until I truly have NO energy at all. So I guess my next best plan is to, I don't know...not eat so much! Ha- what a novel idea!!!! So yay- I'll be the thick girl with no energy while all of my friends are working their hot bodies :0) (Not that I would actually partake in the exercise way of life if I could) If only there was a magic pill without side effects that would make me skinny while stuffing my face and sitting on my butt!!!!!
