Get Real Monday!!!!

Ok so I am trying to do the right thing and work out. My husband and I are doing P90X. It is sooo hard but it feels good though to be working out. I am not gonna lie and tell you I do it 6 days a week (which is what you are supposed to do). I only do it 3-4 days a week but I am trying to add more workouts through the week when I can. I can already see muscles in my arms and I am amazed that they are coming up even though I do the workouts like they say. This experience is drawing my husband and I together. During the little water breaks we get through the workouts we have started to tell each other how much we love each other, how thankful we are of one another, what a great journey we are on spiritually, etc. This is really helping taking our minds off of the pain of working out this intense and also lifts each other up during the workouts. I have a habit of beating myself down while doing this intense workout because I can't do it exactly like them and I am learning that it is ok just as long as I push myself. So that is why I love telling each other those kind words. (we even sneak a kiss in here and there)

Also, as we have begun this journey of working out I have learned that I love smoothies. I try and drink them daily and it feels good to drink something that is so good for you. I used to drink a lot of soda but I gave it for Lent and I don't have the desire to drink soda anymore. I will admit I had one tonight but it wasn't very good. I guess you have drink it alot to get used to the taste again. That's ok I don't miss soda because I love my smoothies. The smoothies also help with things to flow easier when you go #2. I know TMI but I am happy that I found a solution to this problem and I know other people have this problem so I am just keeping it REAL!!!
