Fat Girls Don't Lunge

Got up early and went to BodyPump today. I haven't been in over a week. I could really feel the burn even though I think I need to add more weights. I feel the burn at the time but I haven't been getting sore the next day for a while now. I guess I'm ready to step up to 14lbs. I've been doing 10lbs. I really enjoy BodyPump except for the lunges. I can not do a lunge. I don't know why it is so hard for me. It hurts in all the wrong places when I do one. Like my feet. A lunge should not hurt your feet. Guess it's time to go shopping for shoes............again. Seems like I'm always buying shoes for someone.

Anyway, so my class consists of man and women. There are about 15 women and your token man, usually old and gray. I am by far the largest one in the group. It's kinda embarrassing. I know they are thinking that I really need that class and I agree though I'm not really using that class specifically to lose weight. It's really more about the toning and strength training. So all the women have on cute little workout clothes with the spandex pants and the tight racer back spandex tops with their cute little athletic shoes on their size 7 feet. Gag me. They either have no boobs or big boobs, cute perky ponytails, and hardly sweat at all. Then there is me. I wear sweat capri's, sports bra because I have in between boobs, and a maternity tank top. I wear a size 10 shoe so sneakers look like boats on my feet. My hair is really short and at 8:30 in the morning it's lucky it gets brushed. And then I sweat like crazy. So people probably think I'm fat and weak and just can't take it but actually it's really kinda easy (again I think I need to step up the weights). Except for the lunges of course. I really enjoy lifting weights and some of the steps that others hate I really enjoy and think I'm quite good at.

Oh well. At least I'm trying. And at least I know that way back in the day, I did look good.
