Falling off the Wagon Hurts!!

I'm back and soooo very sore!!  I fell off the wagon for SEVERAL MONTHS...more than I care to share...but I am getting back on.  I have the type of persoanlity that I am all or nothing.  So when I fall off the diet/exercise wagon...I fall hard!!  I am doing a 60 mile walk in September and the training has begun.  I walked with two friends on Sunday morning....10 miles.  It was much nicer to walk and train with friends.  We talked and laughed...and also did a little huffing and puffing along the way.  After the walk I was fine then the afternoon came.  Geez was I sooo sore!!  I declared that my legs hated me!! I slept with a heating pad under them that night and everything.  Lesson learned--STRETCH BEFORE AND AFTER A WALK!!  This walk jump started my workout craziness!!  I am a member of a great gym in Southaven.  I recently joined the team training classes.  Lets just say the first class KICKED MY BUTT!! I told my husband last night that as sore as my legs have been the past few days I better have some good looking legs come September!! :)  I am excited to get myseld back into the swing of things.  I have felt kinda down lately, very tired, and moody.  Yesterday I felt myself relax and release some stress while I was sweating my butt off!! It was nice to have my get away at the gym and it felt good to know that I was doing something good for myself.  I am trying a new team training class tonight...lets hope that I will still be able to walk tomorrow!! :)
