Quote from Megan1965 on October 8, 2019, 8:15 pmyo i am so done with the gym. like seriously. i spend like 45 mins driving to planet fitness and then just stare at the ceiling while the treadmill beeps. last night i got home from work at 6pm fed the dog and tried to do yoga on the living room rug but my back hurt. i just want to be fit but the process is so dry. i bought those 10$ leggings from target n them smell weird after one wash. ugh. im just sitting here eating cereal wondering if i should just walk around the block. but its cold outside tbh. does anyone else feel like they are just enduring it for no reason?? is there a fun way to move or am i just lazy??

Quote from Wild2002 on October 21, 2020, 7:59 amsame thing happens to me every time i pick up my toddler. my lower back just locks up. i usually just lie down on the floor with a hot water bottle on it for like 15 mins. also try not to bend from the waist, squat down instead. it helps a bit but honestly just need rest. sending love mama.

Quote from Sunnysoul1983 on September 24, 2020, 11:35 amI just say no and stop explaining myself. My body, my rules. If he cant handle that we done. I used to feel bad but now I see it as lazy communication on my part. You dont owe anyone access to yourself. Just be clear and consistent. If guilt creeps in remind yourself that you are allowed to rest too.

Quote from cedargarnet on August 8, 2020, 7:30 pmmy knees feel like lead too after driving all day. Honestly, i just pop up every hour to stretch my legs and do some squats if i can. sometimes i put ice on them when i get home. its crazy how much sitting hurts older bodies. try not to stay in one spot for too long if you can help it. take care of yourself.

Quote from Trueparade on October 1, 2020, 2:07 amhonestly i think it’s just stress from moving every two years. my cortisol is probably through the roof. i tried cutting carbs like everyone says but it just made me crazy. now i just eat yogurt and fruit after PT bc its easier when you’re tired. also never skip breakfast. my body would literally shut down if i waited too long to eat. weird right but it works for me

Quote from reefgold on February 22, 2021, 12:18 amBabe take the nap. Seriously. My husband wants round two daily and I’m over it. I just tell him I’m dead to the world. We compromise on weekends. Rest is sacred at my age. If he’s mad he can sleep on the couch. Your energy is limited so spend it on yourself. Don’t feel guilty.

Quote from calmocean on February 6, 2021, 4:51 pmYeah honey I been there. My knees dont stop hurting and I catch myself staring at the neighbors house wondering who is inside. So I started walking the track at my church twice a day. Just walking yall. No talking. It helps clear my head. Also tried those little pickle snacks at the drugstore weirdly they hit the spot. Be kind to yourself mama.

Quote from Dellparting on November 28, 2021, 12:49 pmYeah it ain’t just you. I swear, My knees sound like crunchy cereal every morning. I started wearing compression sleeves and cutting back on high impact stuff. Yoga helps too but omg the stairs are painful. Just keep moving so they don’t lock up completely. Drink plenty of water and stretch. We’ll be spry forever or at least pretend to be.

Quote from Moortooth on September 9, 2021, 8:20 pmi stopped drinking homemade aguas too. thought it was healthy but the sugar load is crazy. my doctor said natural sugars count just the same. now i stick to water with lime or sparkling water. annoying at first but my labs look better. just wish someone told me earlier.
