Fitness

I'm not a sporty person, so going to the gym is particularly hard for me. The only motivation that I have is that if I keep going, I will finally fit into my summer outfits again. This isn't a worry yet, cause its winter now, but if I carry on like this, then I'm going to have a problem in summer time. LOL. I'm not obsessed about being thin or anything, but I find it important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, and going to gym is part of that.

At this moment almost every muscle in my body is screaming in agony... I can't even cough properly! For the first time in ages, I went to gym again yesterday and today. I went to gym regularly just before the wedding, but then I slacked a bit. I guess I needed either time to get into a new routine, or just an excuse for not going to gym. Either way, I'm going to do my best to keep going now.

Then I've been struggling with bladder infection.  I've been off sick due to it actually; twice in one month.  I'm doing much better at the moment, but they're suspecting kidney stones or a bladder stone... I honestly don't think it can be that.  I've seen people with kidney stones, and it HURTS.  I don't think its possible to have those and NOT know it, so I'm just finishing my antibiotics, drinking lots of water, and cutting out sugar...  Or trying to at least.

Aparantly the bacteria that causes bladder infections grow on sugar - see, now I never knew that, but I'm definitely giving it a try.

Well, I thought I'd share that incase someone else is struggling with it too.  I'm also going to try the kidney & bladder tea from anniquea - A friend of mine told me that it worked wonders for her.

Hope you all have a great evening - I'm off....

1 - I'm not terribly athletic either, but mine is due to laziness. I'm lazy. I want to try something low impact though, like yoga, I think it could be good for me.

I hope you feel better soon!! Bladder infection is no fun at all. I hear cranberry juice is good for caring for that. (Comment this)

2 - Cranberry juice works great; I had a kidney infection last fall and it was painful. Take care. Beth (Comment this)
