just a bit of a break from the norm
just a little somethin' to break the monotony
of all that hardcore exercise that has gotten to be
a little bit out of control- I'm a fool to sweat
but what about some grooves that move and soothe- is there no chance?"
Yes, that ode to Will Smith w/ slight changes- was me talking about another killer work out with Doriana at West County Fitness in Ballwin, Missouri. Here in the St. Louis area today the temperature was about 105 when I went to the gym. Despite the dual air units, it was @82 in that bad boy. I was sweating before I lifted a finger.
I got to say the work out was great. I felt good and better equipped than last week to do the exercises she DEMANDED we do. I swear the woman is a drill sergeant- no MERCY. I asked her today if she was trying to kill me. She finally admitted it folks with a firm "Yes". So pray I come out of this alive. Just look at her (Doriana)- I think she could break me in 2 if she wanted.
People are starting to tell me they see a difference. I am glad. I still don't see it but that is okay. I'm kicking the "Scale's" butt. After a bad weigh in on Sunday (which I knew would happen since it was "that time" of the month- just one more thing we ladies must contend with in the battle to lose the weight- about 1-2 weeks out of the month your weight is not right), I got on the scale this morning. Since my "Aunt" left the scale says I am at 177. That would mean I am down almost 15 lbs in three weeks. So my goal is 20 by the end of the first 4 weeks. I would be ecstatic if that happened.
HIGH POINT: Being able to really feel like I was doing the workout better. Better form, more weight, harder abs. It felt good to do it.
LOW POINT: Seeing my hubby eat fluffy biscuits topped with some of my Nannie's homemade jelly- it was tough. I wanted a biscuit in the worst way (and there not even my fav food). Ooh, temptation how you creep in - in the most unexpected places. 
Well, I got to get ready to go work out - AGAIN!
