I had a good workout Sunday. . . I’m just now getting to the computer. I went to the gym and did a lower body workout - - squats, lunges, etc. It was sooooo nice outside that I didn’t want to come home. Instead, I went to the track and ran the stairs at the stadium. I had on some 1 1/2 lb leg weights. Since it was my first time, I said I would do it for :30 minutes. The workout was OK. I only took brief rests between up and down stops. I left there and went to the car wash. I am so glad that daylight lasts past 5PM!

Needless to say, MY LEGS ARE KILLING ME THIS TUESDAY NIGHT!!!! WOW! but, I think I will hit it again Thursday on my way home from work! The upper body seems to be coming along rather well. I gots to get rid of that cottage cheeze on my thighs. I think if I keep it up, it will become a regular routine.

Well, I’ve been hitting it pretty hard for two months. I’m starting to see a few changes. I’ve toned some and I have a couple of pair of pants I can now fit comfortably in. That was one reason I felt I needed to move more. I will not be buying a new wardrobe. The one I have will have to suffice. The clothes certainly aren’t going to let themselves out. I have to reel myself back in. . .

I’ve been reading a lot online how everyone is raving about The First Lady’s toned arms. They’re nice. I feel she’s naturally skinny, though. I don’t think she’s doing any major workout or lifting as the President claims he does. She does look very nice to be 45 and have had two children.  I wish I were her height, though. Anyway, I decided I would outdo Michelle Obama in the "arms race." I’m glad she’s a member of the Fit and over 40 club but my arms will  look a lot better than hers!
