I have to admit that today I really didn't want to go into the gym to workout when the hubby came home I just wanted to hang out with him and little Maddux but it is these days that are the hardest to go that I really need to push myself so I did and I felt sooooo good after! I am so glad I went my arms are already super sore and my abs are feeling great! I really hope I start to see some results soon. I need this to all be worth it!

Keep on Keeping on....Happy exercising! Oh and today is biggest Loser! I love working out on biggest loser days it gives me extra motivation. I wish they had this show for people who are just a little over weight people that want those trainers to kick their butts into being toned. I would sooooo apply.Sometimes I really want a personal trainer but I totally couldn't afford it so for now I am just going to see how working out on my own will work out. It has worked before. Positive attitude!
