Enjoying Exercise????!!!!????

Yeah, I just have to say that I'm shocking myself lately with how much I'm actually enjoying the exercise. SO WEIRD!! I have HATED exercise all my life. Hated it. But, I have done my walk/jogs daily for the past 11 days and have for the past 4 days added a sculpting weight work-out thing that I really like as well. And I actually love it.

I can't believe I just said that.

And - Trev and I each get monthly allowances of money to spend on whatever we want - mine is usually clothes or maybe a book, or something fun for the house or something. But yesterday, I spent my allowance on work-out pants (I already had the top), some 5 pound weights and a tension band thingy (see the pic below). I spent my free money on work-out stuff!

Seriously, I'm just having a hard time understanding myself lately.

But, I'm loving it, and so I will continue to do it. Its become MY thing each day - my time for me... and the kids are starting to get used to it. Today William was exercising with me. Too cute. I'm glad - one of my reasons for wanting to lose weight and get in shape is so that I can be a good role model for my kids. I'm glad its already kicking in.

Colleen, you are amazing. I am so proud of all the work you are doing. You looked so amazing at church this morning and I feel bad cause I never said anything. Forgive me.

Those Elastic thingy's are so hard. I prefer the weights.

I'd love to see all those stickers on your calendar again!!!
