Confessions of an adult-onset athlete
Wednesday, November 26, 2003
Jean McGuire's article in this week's Kansas City Infozine tells how she went from fat to fitness addict in 3 easy steps:
It all began so innocently. I can vividly remember the day I knew I had to start working out. I was overweight and inactive and as a result, quite self-conscious about my body. However, that day, I was already undressed and getting into the shower when I remembered I'd forgotten something in the bedroom. I dashed into the bedroom, grabbed what I needed and returned to the bathroom. I will never forget the feeling as I walked down the hall. I was walking in an East- West direction, but my rear-end was going North-South. I decided then and there that while I might never get back to my pre-pregnancy days, I could at least control the amount of jiggle I was afflicted with.
