Day Four

I have been to the gym four times now.

It's not as bad as I had feared it would be. I am conscious of the fact that I am currently using lighter weights than most of the other women in the classes and (especially today) that I am older and fatter than the majority of the women too. Oh, well. What can I do, besides keep trying? Self-loathing isn't productive. As long as I am persistent, I will gain greater stamina and be able to move up to heavier weights and more intensive classes.

It's hard to be patient when I really, really want to see a difference now.

In time. We shall see.
