Be Proud Of It!!!



Katschi loves to show off her 'schvitz' and I think we all should! Be proud of how hard you work and look at yourself with new eyes! Come on, lets see ya!


This was today's 5K ! It was a hard one. I forgot just how hard I worked my legs yesterday, so by my 2nd mile my legs wanted to give out on me, but I kept them moving and finished in a new record time! 45:52... that averages to a 15 minute/mile pace! Yahoo!!
Looking at my picture I see one huge difference. I no longer look like a tomato after my workouts. Now I just have a healthy pink tint!




<--- Proof of my new record! (notice the magazine, lots of pictures of the body I want! Great motivation!)

I'm going to smuggle a camera into the locker room at the gym and ask someone to take a picture of me after my workout. I still look like a tomato!

I have posted a recipe for ratatouille on my blog... In the "From my kitchen" section - the name of the post is something like "There's a rat in my kitchen". I would have given you the link, but I'm somehow unable to do much on my own blog this afternoon... very, very frustrating!

I love my sweat spots and all that! Again, posted something similar (without a pic) about sweat on my elbows. When I feel the sweat there, I know I'm rocking it because it's pouring off me.

I think, errr rather I know, I'm going to enjoy your blog!
