Taking it for Granted

I feel that I have taken my good health for granted. In the last year I have been in and out of doctor's offices and it made me realize that I'm not 20 anymore and the little things I do to my body really affect it. I recently had some moles removed. It was more painful (and a pain in the rear to deal with) than I would have expected. Before that happened, I fully committed to putting exercise into my life. I was "working out" about 5 days per week and I was feeling pretty good. Then I had these sore wounds to deal with so the working out stopped. Then I found out that one of the moles had to be completely dug out. That has set me back another 2 weeks. When I went in for the follow-up and to remove the stitches he told me only leg exercises for another month at least. What a wake-up call this was for me. The healing is taking a lot longer than I expected. Is it because it's my body, my age, my stress level ??? Maybe a combo. I do know that I feel better when I exercise but the thought of getting on the treadmill for the next four weeks makes me seriously want to stop for fear of complete and utter boredom. I actually watched Judging Amy at the gym yesterday when I was on the treadmill....I'm in trouble.. I will continue to do it because my body needs but I will yearn for the amazing exercise classes that I was dragging myself to before all of this happened....
