Sore all over!

So in my pursuit of being more fit this year, I've been trying to work out more often (like I used to).

Well, a few things prevent me from going all out, like the headaches that I've been getting, and a "bum" knee. :P Who knew that a person on the brink of 30 would be falling apart already! I'm not giving up obviously...

I mean if the Dr. that I went to is any indication, I can be thankful for my asian genes since he was totally surprised when I told him how old I was. I jokingly asked how old he thought I was...

His answer "20 or 21". Lordie, there are times where it's nice to be "young" looking, but other times when you're trying to be taken seriously, not so much. :P This is one of those times, I feel good about looking young. HAHA.

However, yesterday, I finally got a few friends together to play some badminton! YAY friends! So much fun even though they hadn't played before.

Now, I'm regretting playing so long...and maybe playing harder than I should, I ache in my lower extremities...(ie butt, legs, one of my calves, and forearm)...I should totally take my own advice about things hurting that you didn't know existed when playing!

You wouldn't think that badminton would be so hardcore, but if you attempt to play for real, and work it out on the court, it's actually an awesome workout. Lots of lunges, scooting back and forth...etc etc.

Now let's hope that I recover enough to play again on Wed! :)

How's everyone's weekend?

PS I'm so sad! I've lost 3 followers. :(

Good for you for getting some exercise! I hope even if it hurts, next time you will be stronger and it will hurt less! As long as you are having fun, I suppose... :)

I've been trying to work out more too - it's slow going.

Don't be sad about those followers - I'm sure plenty more are on the horizon :)

I'd love to try Badminton! The more you do it, the easier it will become. I've been trying to work out as well but can't right now because I have a cold :( (My excuse, anyway...)

As for the followers, I just started following you! :)
