Spinning...

I decided recently that I needed to shake up my exercise routine. My weight is plateau-ing, and I needed a change. So a friend (who, by the way, trains people in extreme exercise body camp thing-ies) recommended I try spinning. Ok, I thought, I can do that.

What made me think THAT was a good idea???

Hard? HARD??? Hard is an understatement. Let's just say I did an HOUR LONG class for my first spin- and it KICKED MY BUTT. (Excuse my french). I was drenched from head to toe. I went home and refused to eat anything for most of the day because, doggoneit, those calories were HARD to lose, I wasn't about to waste them on FOOD.

Then guess what? I went back for more. And more.

I've done two more classes, both 45 minutes. And I *think*- think- MAYbe- that it's getting a bit more do-able. Maybe.

And when I leave I feel like I've REALLY *done* something. It's hard, but I KNOW I'm getting a workout. And it makes me VERY careful about what I eat.

P.S.- I've also started running about 3 miles on alternate days. And I know I need to weight train, but I really HATE it. It's just SO not fun. I like to move my body, and my IBS-C gut really likes it when I do. Any ideas on what I could do to make weight training better?
