Working out

My brother is working at LA Fitness and got me a free 30 day pass to try it out.  My mom has been so awesome about going with me.  We've averaged 4-5 times a week for the past three weeks.  Never thought I'd say this, but it's a lot of fun!  I have already lost 5 pounds, and can really tell a difference in my stamina and ability.  We usually do about 30 minutes of cardio exercises and then work on the weight machines or do floor exercises like Pilates and such.  We've even done laps in the pool a couple of times.  I've never actually used swimming as an exercise before, I usually just play in the water.  Let me tell you, it seriously got my heart rate up and worked my arms doing all that swimming!  :)  I am hoping to find a way to work a membership into my budget.  I am really hoping that if I continue, I can start to look and feel better.  I'm really hoping it will help my depression as well.  :)  I'll keep ya posted!
