Just about everywhere aches, but it's good. I'm happy about it. It makes me feel alive and in control. Not that I'm a control freak...uh..ok...yes I am. It's hard for me to let go and listen to Otto at times. I'm not used to a man telling me what to do. I don't mean that in a bad way....I've been through a lot that has made me the person I am today. I work with men all day, for the most part, I call the shots, but then of course I have bosses that like to tell me what to do, as they should. I divorced when my sons were 10 months old and 2 1/2 years old ...they are now 16 and 17. I just remarried in January, so again, I have been in control all that time of my family and everything that I did. So...there is some trust there that I give to Otto. Trust to let my guard down and let him lead me, instead of me being the leader. I think he understand this as he's been hard on me but not overbearing. I appreciate that he sees that and responds to it. The amazing part is that I look in the mirror and I like what I see. I can see the differences in my body and the CHANGE that is happening. All because I let go and let myself trust someone else, and listen, even when I didn't want to.
I started my day with my husband and I hitting the gym at 5 am. I love going with him, it makes him feel better for the rest of the day. He's 9 years older than me, so he's gotta stay in shape to keep up with me. lol I did 30 min of cardio in the morning.
At lunch, I took the opportunity to workout at the gym at work. 40 min on the recumbent bike, I went 16 miles! If you would have asked me to bike 16 miles, I would laugh at you...it was a good challenge for me, I really set the goal at 14 miles, but I had some time left over so I went for it.
Met Otto at 1830 tonight

Then we were done. I pulled the inside of my leg or something. Tomorrow will be just a cardio day...then a weight day on Thursday, arms I think. Friday is Legs...which I am just now able to walk.
