Tennis

I played tennis today with an old friend from high school. I love tennis but I hasn't played much since high school. Playing tennis when you are heavy is hard on the knees. A couple of years ago I took up tennis for a few weeks with a co-worker and during that time I bought a tennis skirt that was too tight. I thought that since I was going to be playing tennis regularly I would lose weight and would need that smaller size. I stopped playing regularly and every once in a great long while I would put that skirt on to hit a few balls with a friend. The skirt was always too too tight but since my fat gut was covered with my t-shirt I still wore it.

This morning I dug that skirt out and was surprised to find that the skirt that had been perpetually tight, The one that I had given up on ever fitting was loose. Almost to the point of falling off. It was amazing. I wore that skirt this morning. I think it might be the last time. I'm happy to say goodbye to it.

Moving on. I felt so great when I played this morning. I just felt more full of energy, healthier and more capable of being active. I had more energy throughout the day, and well into the night. I think I may go play in the morning if my friend is up for it. Chasing all the bad hits is really good exercise. Plus its super fun.
