AF Biggest Loser/Fitness Challenge-May 3 to Whenever We're Not Fat Anymore

[mlmooney89]

Lol I'm apparently going backward here. I just turned off my gym membership. Disclosure though I have a gym at my apartment complex... not that I'm using it.

Gyms were never my style.  I was always more comfortable jogging outside on a regular basis.  I think the only time a gym comes particularly in handy for some people is when they need the guidance of a personal trainer, someone personally pushing them to work out at their hardest and best on a semi-regular basis.

I love the gym myself. I like that I'm not running in the elements (usually exercising outside in the Texas heat will get you really hurt), I prefer stretching and doing my floor exercises on something soft, if I over exert myself I'm not a mile away from home, and paying money every month is my biggest motivation to get to the gym.

That being said I'm having a hard time doing -any- exercising because of my newborn. I feel awful being away from her all day so all I want to do when I get home is cuddle her and spend time with her. The other day I stayed at work for a seminar that was voluntary and I felt so guilty for being away from her for 13 hours I cried. I've tried running with the stroller once but that is a weekend thing cause I prefer daylight and my husband to be around so he can run with the dog.
