[Diabetes-talk] Recently DXED Pre-Diabetic

Bridgit:

I say again: it's boring as hell. Face it; there are athletic freaks and
there are brain freaks; I admit to being the latter.

I'm not saying exercise doesn't improve health; I'm just saying that I don't
get those who enjoy it.

But we're straying off-topic a bit here.

Mike

I find it interesting that those who shout the loudest against exercise are
those just not willing to make the adjustment, LOL! Seriously, what's the
difficulty, or tediousness in exercising? We're not talking about 5 hour
Olympic-training work-outs. Walk around the neighborhood, take a class, hop
on the treadmill while watching TV. I'm not a huge athlete. I was a dancer
for years and did do soccer and swimming in my teens, but I've never been a
big athlete; it's just something I feel good about doing, and I find
activities I enjoy.

Perhaps. But you really have to be into it. If you consider that athletes
are terminally mentally ill as I do, it's more of a chore.
