consistency is my worst enemy and i hate the gym
Quote from RaincurtaIN on December 14, 2019, 6:25 pmi tried going to planet fitness last thursday at 6pm because i thought i could squeeze it in before the kids went to bed. i spent twenty minutes changing because the locker room was full and my toddler threw a Fitbit strap in the trash so i had to go back to the car to get the other one. by the time i got on the treadmill i was just mad. i walked for twelve minutes and left. i paid my monthly fee and mostly just sit on the couch eating plain yogurt while scrolling through amazon for new running shoes i never buy. it is so exhausting to feel like a failure every time i try to exercise. i want to feel better but the routine feels impossible. does anyone else just want to sit still all day?

Quote from Patty1985 on March 3, 2019, 5:46 amSame thing happens here. We just gave her a specific corner with a small table and told her that’s the only spot. She put up a little shrine and now it’s her sacred space. I actually don’t mind it that much as long as the incense smell doesn’t drift into the kitchen while I’m cooking dinner. Just set boundaries early.

Quote from Hummingbird on January 1, 2019, 7:42 pmomg yeah. week 3 is the worst. i keep staring at the ceiling wondering why my life is on pause. i finally started watching that new detective show so i have something to look forward to besides the clock. also realized ive gained like 5 lbs. just try to survive the boredom. my cousin had the same knee op last year and said week 4 gets slightly better. hang in there.

Quote from chimelodge on June 3, 2019, 1:46 pmI get it. My husband was pushing hard too. I stopped overthinking the performance part and just told him we need low pressure. We switched to just touching without expecting penetration. Took the edge off for both of us. Now we actually want to be closer. Don’t force it if your body says no. Communication works better than ghosting through it. Just be honest.

Quote from Crystal1975 on November 20, 2020, 12:41 pmbro same. im always wiped after the gym. i finally started bringing a banana and eating it right after. also just realized i drink like 50oz of water before going. if i dont drink enough beforehand im dehydrated and crashing hard afterward. feels like junk after a run even if its light. just started napping for 20 mins immediately after changing out. helps a lot. dont overthink it too much honestly.

Quote from martha1980 on October 17, 2020, 11:33 amhonestly yeah. I swear, im just hitting the gym hard rn. nothing fixes my spiraling like lifting heavy weights til i cant breathe. then i go home, eat some good food from abuela, and watch trash tv. simple routine. not trying to be spiritual or anything just need to shut my brain off for a bit. its kinda loud in here sometimes.

Quote from claystamp on April 6, 2020, 5:17 amgirl dont even sweat it. honestly its just biology doing its job. i used to feel weird about it too but now i just laugh it off. like hey thanks for being excited. it means he wants me. dont let it make you feel pressured or anything, just roll with it. sometimes i tease him about it being too fast lol. just keep it chill.

Quote from Rachel1992 on December 31, 2020, 11:44 amit is definitely worse. Omg, i stopped swiping last month because every guy under 40 wants a baby mama who cooks kabsa and cleans his house. i just want someone who pays half the rent and doesnt talk about crypto. honestly its better hanging out with my uncles at the weekend mall than dealing with these weird men. tired of explaining basic respect.

Quote from seafeather on December 30, 2020, 6:28 pmi used to pay for one of those apps but stopped after a year. honestly the ads were more stressful than the calm sounds. now i just sit in my garden or listen to birds from the porch. doesnt cost a dime and feels just as peaceful. maybe we just need quiet time without the fancy tech telling us how to breathe.
