"I have to say it took me a little while before I actually enjoyed exercise. What really makes it fun for me is the socializing that comes along with it. I have a friend who exercises with me most of the time. We chitchat while walking on the treadmill or using the elliptical trainer. Time passes quickly. I started exercising because I had a number of health issues that required me to take a lot of medications. I didn't like it and wanted a change! I am happy to say that after nine months I am off all medications. There are times when I find it difficult to get to the gym and exercise. Sometimes I don't feel like getting up in the morning or it's too cold outside and don't feel like getting in my car to drive to the gym. In times like this I'm thankful I have somebody to exercise with like my trainer or my friend. When I know they are at the gym waiting for me, I don't want to let them down."
