The getting back in shape thread

[Becks]

I don't run, because of my bad ankles. I'm not tearing ligments again. Not for YOU, not for ANYONE.

I wish I could swim. I can't. I can't even FLOAT. How sad is that?

I'm still determined to get an exercise bike.

And when it gets warmer around here, I'm going to walk.

[HorrorFrogPrincess]

I twist my left ankle a lot, mostly just by hitting the pavement wrong. I typically just walk it off.

You can still learn to swim. Get a friend who's least likely to torment you about it to teach you. Never know when you'll be caught in a flash flood and need to swim to the nearest roof.

[Becks]

You can still learn to swim.

Nope.

Tried. Many times. Ain't. Gonna. Happen.

Besides, I nearly drowned as a young child. I think it's my destiny.

I totally remember that.

[HorrorFrogPrincess]

Ah, that's different then. Bike it is!

[Becks]

Bike it is!

It has to be an exercise bike, too.

Can't use a real one. I still have scars from falling off the last one.

Man, I really suck.

Just try not to tip THAT over.

LOL HFP that's why I'm getting back in shape too - new pants time and I REFUSE!!

I say to Becks - learn to swim. Girl, really. Get over it. Do what it takes. Take formal lessons. Do it. Not for health. Not for exercise. But because you never know when it will safe your life, or someone else's.

I just bought a bunch of new pants and shirts for work. I don't want a new wardrobe!

Nevermind the T-shirts I've been hording since high school. You'll have my Grumpy shirt when you pry it off my cold, dead bosom.

And even then I may reanimate.

I have to admit that I don't want a Grumpy T-shirt, but could I practice while things are still warm in case I change my mind?

Rapscallion

[HorrorFrogPrincess]

Of course not! You'll stretch it.

[Rapscallion]

We don't even have to practice with that shirt. I could provide one that I wouldn't mind having roughed up a bit. Gently.

I'll tru, but then I *am* oddly talented.

No promises, but maybe.

Ummm...NO. NO NO NO NO NO NO NO.

I have tried. Many times.

Hit the hill three times, 57 minutes, 703 calories. Was considering four time, but I need my feet tomorrow at work and it's time to cook some food. So far this week, roughly 2500 calories.
