What was I thinking???

So this morning (OK barely morning but still before noon) I get a text message from Lina who wants to know if I want to go walking while she works out. When I talked to her the other day while walking I walked twice as long as I had planned on going so she suggested we do it again. I was all for it because I need as much motivation as possible. The problem is, there was a hundred percent chance of rain and I'm so not into walking in the rain! I have glasses with no built in wiper blades. So there was no walking for me but because I know I need the motivation, even though I didn't plan on working out today I told her I too would go to the gym and do the elliptical. I asked her what time. She said 5pm which sounded perfect, gave me plenty of time to mentally prepare myself. The only problem is at 5pm I'm not going to be as into going so Lina, being the professional that she is know how to motivate. She said you bring your camera and I'll bring mine and we can take pictures of ourselves talking to each other and exercising and you can blog about it! See why she's so good at her job? No way would I cancel now, LOL.

My earpiece is not working so I think I'm going to get a new blue tooth phone. That will be another post. So anyway, I had to hold my phone up to my ear the whole time we talked. It's not like I walk very fast to begin with but with the phone up to my ear I walked even slower. When I told Lina how fast I was walking (on level one) she thought I was reading her the wrong thing. But I still feel like I'm getting a good workout. All you have to do is look at how much I'm sweating.So it's ok that I'm not going very fast, I'm still getting a workout!

Whereas Lina is practically running at the highest level, not breathing hard and chatting with me. She tried to get me to go an extra 15 minutes, I made it an extra 8, so while I'm struggling to make it through, drenched in sweat, Lina barely breaks into a glisten during her run.
But I'm not jealous, she works for the body she has, she's bodilicious for a reason and I use her to help motivate me. That and we're already trying to plan our next adventure and swimsuits will be involved.

Plus, Lina has already said she had new ways to motivate me. I'm a little scared, LOL.

Here is the first picture I took with my fabulous new camera. I took it the other night, it was picture # 1 on my camera! Damn, my camera takes nice pics, well actually, I think it's the subject! In case you didn't notice it, I'm wearing my new glasses in these pictures. Two very different pair for my different personalities, LOL.
