Well. This week's questions are about exercising. Good grief.
I was feeling all guilty, and then I read Chelsea's answers and realized I'm not alone in my hatred of the whole "working out" thing.
But. She just had a baby. She has a good excuse.
I had a baby. 11.5 years ago. I have no excuse.
I just HATE exercise.
So... here's my best attempt at answering questions I am not qualified to answer.
1. What does your work out schedule look like?
It is invisible.
2. What is your favorite machine to use at the gym?
The Coke machine.
3. What is your favorite class to take at the gym?
The scrapbooking one that meets down the hall.
4. Where do you shop for work out gear and clothing?
Now I do love some Yoga pants. Target and Old Navy.
5. If you can’t go to the gym, do you have a favorite outdoor activity?
Walking.
6. What about a favorite work out DVD? If so, please share!
I used to do Bob's workout (from the Biggest Loser), but I really like him better on the show. Not yelling at me to "push myself."
7. Are you more active now or when you were in high school?
Oh heavens. In high school for sure. I know my husband's side of the family will not believe this, but I used to be scrawny. Like a rail. A skinny minny.
8. How has your dieting/working out philosophy changed since high school?
I used to eat what I wanted and be skinny. Now when I just think about eating, I get fatter. I used to be more active, but I have always disliked exercise.
9. What do you do while working out– (i.e., day dream, read, listen to music, gab with a friend)?
Nothing. Cause I don't work out. If and when I go walking, I listen to music.
10. What working out resolution would you like to make for yourself this year?
To continue not working out and lose 45 pounds. I would like to look like one of those skinny runner chicks I see in the neighborhood. All cute and thin and running. Running. When did that become the "thing" to do? These days, if you aren't on your third marathon, you are a loser.
Maybe my resolution should be to get a better attitude about exercise.
And to stop comparing myself to the neighborhood skinnies.

haha you are so funny and right on with the running fad. I wish.
I echo ALL of your answers except the video one... the last workout tape I bought was Richard Simmons and I did it ONCE.
Even right now when I am attempting to lose a little (OK a lot of) weight, I only walk occasionally. Walking - that's it.
We'll just have bad attitudes toward exercise together. Some have workout buddies, we'll be each other's anti-workout buddy.
