Found Time to Exercise ... fInally

For a while now, with my busy schedule I really couldn't find the time or energy to exercise, today it finally came to me. I was laying in bed at 6:30am like I do every morning "waking up" to go to work when I realized that I waste 45 Minutes on average just laying around in bed. So I thought about it and got up pulled up a 10 minute exercise video on On Demand and went at it. So now, instead of laying around in bed until sometime after 7am, I plan to get up around 7, crack out a 10 minute workout, then get ready to start my day. seems like a solid plan, and maybe do some of the longer, more involved programs on the weekend. but I could be wrong... this could be a bad idea, what does everyone think?

Sounds like a good idea. I'd have trouble getting this old girl up, but you should go for it.

That is an awesome plan! Even just a little bit every day helps, and you never know you may start to really like it and do more every day! Good for you hon! :D

Hugs,

I've been thinking about doing that video that was posted on another thread every morning, but I've bumped into a couple technical hurdles.

Now, one of the exercises uses a bar across the shoulders, but that really restricts my coffee access at a critical time in my morning schedule.

Does anyone know if there is a bar I could use that would be able to hold a coffee cup without spilling, and at the same time allow me to take sips of it at appropriate times during the workout routine.

      Did you ask her if there was anything particular you need to learn from the BIble?  Any particular book you should read? Result she wants you to have? Did you ask her if she is reading her Bible, and what she is getting out of it lately?  What is the Lord speaking to her?   It shouldn't be a one way thing.

      I would like to, but I don't obsess over it.

      I apologize for my part in side tracking the discussion.

      Comparison can be deadly.  If the 23 year old beauty queen is the standard for women, all others are not real women.  If Jocko Willink is the standard for men, all other men are not real men.   I read an essay about the mermaid and transgender people. There is a statue of a mermaid in a Danish harbor.  She looks wistfully back at the sea, where she cannot go because she is human above, but neither can she walk on the land, because of her lower half.  Psychologists have noted a fascination with mermaids by trans kids.  TG folk, using the mermaid analogy,  can feel like we can neither mountain climb nor explore the depths because of our condition, but there is plenty we CAN do.  As humans we can both climb mountains and explore the depths.   Not all women give birth. Not all men become fathers.  Not all men can pull cable wire all day long, walk iron safely, or heft 600 pounds in a dead lift.  That does not mean they are not men.

      Sally, thank you for deciding to post your life experiences. They have certainly struck some chords with me, and have caused me to look again at my life and where I am going.  I will not take up your thread with my thoughts, but suffice to say that I was commissioned into the military (RAF) as an aviator in 1963. Fortunately my cross-gender feelings were mild and easily suppressed. It is only in later life that they have come to the fore.   I look forward to reading more.   Karen

      I tried the superglue and it didn’t stick to the plastic bag. So I am using some chicken cutlet forms until I find a cheap replacement or go more permanently and get top surgery. I just need to get a therapist note for insurance to cover the surgery. I’ll use Tegaderm repair on the ripped on special occasions like my cousins wedding.

      The bridal shower went very well. My wife, mother and I went. We bowled (I sucked at it) and went to a bar afterwards. I was totally accepted by my family and the brides friends. That is what I had been expecting from this side of my family. My one cousin who got married last year told me that she wished I had went as myself instead of listening to my mother telling me to go in boy mode.

      It doesn't just seem that it is, it actually is. aging trans people are left out of nearly 90% of all the help said to be available to transgender people.   Here in Texas, there are not many, if any actually created for aging transgender people. Planned Parenthood pretty much has only been active for trans youth, primarily, as of late. I can't even find legal help for discrimination cases that would help by allowing me to show that it is trans care related. By the way, I don't qualify for medicare as I am turning 55 this year. I also can't get Medicaid either.    Trans youths are not the only ones needing help. Aging trans need just as much help, BUT, are pushed aside as though we as older transgender people, do not matter. I agree the youth are our future, but until the youth decides to listen to what is being taught to them instead of thinking they know everything, the youth of the nation will be our demise.
