Fantastic & Revolutionary New Fitness Machine !

Hi all, I just wanted to share with you my fantastic and revolutionary new exercise machine.
I am sure that many of you can relate to my previous purchases for my ‘Get in to Shape Fads’ over the last few years. The dumb bells I find, having only used them once make fabulous door stops around the house. The bench press is at its most useful when we are decorating to reach those extra high bits and of course the beloved treadmill makes for extra hanging space for clothes in the bedroom.
What was wrong with the above apparatus I hear you ask? Well nothing really, it was all down to my motivation, and as I mentioned these were all fads I was going though. Something needed to change, me, the apparatus, or both?
My teenage daughter first introduced me to the new fitness machine back in August of last year. She bought a second hand one (3years old) for € 100.00. It didn’t take me long to see how much see was exercising, it didn’t matter what day of the week it was, she was up early every morning for her routine, again after school and again in the evening. I would have a go with it now and again, and found that it gave me lots of enjoyment.
After about 2 months, I discussed it with my partner. My daughter monopolised the apparatus and obviously we didn’t want to over use it. We decided that we had enough room and may aswell buy another.
It didn’t take me long to find the model I was looking for, it was brand new, all black and shiny. Being the new type, it did cost a little extra, € 150.00, but this did include a maintenance fee for the first year. What a bargin I thought.
And so, that was it really, there was my change, my motivation. The first night I couldn’t sleep properly, wondering if I should exercise or wait until the morning. I told you that this was revolutionary. The new model has a built in alarm system that means you cannot just ignore it. I find that most mornings I barely managed to wash and clean my teeth before I am forced into my routine. I have even been known to do it in my PJ’s on cold mornings. I have tried ignoring its alarm, even for just 15 minutes, but believe me, the consequences are pretty dire! I have to admit it has changed my life and I never thought I would say it, but it gives me so much joy and happiness.
So for those of you who do not have one of these revolutionary machines, or for those of you that haven’t figured out what this wonderful life changing apparatus is, I am referring to my adopted rescue puppy Bailey and her 3 year old adopted rescue sister Martha............... Advertised models, not for resale

You are too funny, and I am soo happy for you. I have three SPCA animals. One cat I got when she was 5 (cause no one wants and older cat). I have 2 dogs. One I got when he was 8.5 (same reason). One I got cause I had a brain fart. But all three keep me moving (alarm system *snicker*).0
