Exercising is like Paying Bills

I was having lunch with my friend Audrey on Monday and we were chatting about my blog and the progress of my goals (see prior posting), specifically weight loss and exercise.  I made an analogy about exercise, "Exercising is like paying bills.  I hate doing it, but it must be done and I feel better once it's compete".  As soon as I said it I knew it would be the topic for my next posting.
It's true.  I never look forward to exercising....I procrastinate as long as I can.  Why is that?  I like the results, I like to sweat (because its an indication that my workout was effective)....I don't like being out of breath, and I absolutely hate running.  I suspect that part of this issue is that I don't think of exercising being a necessary routine...it's not a habit.  Also, I get bored easily.  Doing the same DVD, treadmill, walking path everyday would not appeal to me, so I need to switch it up.
So, starting Friday I am going to do a different activity everyday and blog about my thoughts on it.  Maybe this way I will find something I really like and it will become routine.  Hopefully I will insipre my readers to try something different in their workout routine.  Just to clarify....I will not do the same activity on consecutinve days, but I might to the same activities more than once during the week.  I have some Biggest Loser DVDs that I'm intimidated by, so this would be a good way to get my butt moving and conquer my fear of Jillian Michaels.

Let me know if you have any thoughts or suggestions...I would love to hear them!

Thanks for reading.
