That is what Lina said to me at the gym today on my last set of exercises. So I did one extra muscle straining push just for my blog. I actually thought I was developing some muscles in my chest while I was working on my triceps and looking at the mirror in front of me, then I realized what I was looking at was a sweat induced mirage. Once I wiped my eyes the muscles disappeared.
But don't worry, I am beginning to see a difference in how fast I move. Lina and I went grocery shopping this morning and Lina remembered we needed parsley while we were in line so I zipped to the produce section and you should have seen how many old people I passed! Yep, I didn't let that old guy with the walker outpace me and the guy with the limp, I smoked him! Since I grabbed the wrong parsley (there were 2 different kinds and of course I grabbed the wrong version) I had to go ALL the way back to the produce section again and I wasn't even winded. I was so proud of myself as I briskly walked thru Publix. I really felt the working out was paying off.
Did you notice how I said we went grocery shopping in the morning? Lina wanted to go first thing this morning. I don't normally leave my bed for a couple of hours after I wake up, thank goodness for my lap top, LOL and she wanted me to get up and go grocery shopping? Obviously I did. How can I resist the lure of food? Lina says she's going to start dangling food in front of me as I walk to make me walk faster, LOL. For some reason she thinks it's funny that I spend the entire time walking looking for new places to eat.
The Biggest Loser was on last night and you know what that means don't you? Yep, I had to weigh in before we went to the store. I lost 4 lbs this week, woot woot! So I have officially lost 7.2 lbs in 2 weeks. Yes, I count the point 2s when losing weight but not when gaining weight, then I round down, LOL. Talk about awesome motivation! I guess all of that talk about diet and exercise actually works but don't you worry I will still continue my love affair with food. Lina hears me wax poetic all of the time about one food item or another, much to her chagrin, LOL.
