Sweat Much?

                          
Yesterday I went to the gym and the class that I normally go to was beyond full so I decided to do the spinning class.  I had done this class once before and vowed never to return.  It's just not fun for me.  Granted, it's an excellent workout but I need to be entertained while I workout or I have no motivation to return.   Although this class was a little better than last time I still don't understand people's love of cycling.  BUT, and this is a big but, even though I don't find spinning as entertaining as other classes, it is a GREAT workout.  I am not a sweater. Never have been.  However, as you can see in the pictures, I sweat like there was no tomorrow.  And my face was as red as a tomato.  I'm sure walking out of the gym I had several stares but I didn't stick around long enough to find out.  I looked like a man child.  I walked in the door and Phil was shocked.  Although I looked like a piece of work I felt great and I slept like a baby :-)

I just have to say how sweet Phil has been about this working out thing.  I used to go in the morning and just drop Livi off in the day care.  But she kept getting sick, not to mention she bawled everytime I left.  So I was debating whether or not to keep going to the gym. Phil always goes and workouts after work, from 5:30 to 6:30. So he had the bright idea of me meeting him at the gym at 6:30, I hand him Livi, he takes her home and feeds her dinner, and then I can workout from 6:30 to 7:30.  I get home and give her a bath and put her to bed and everyone's happy!  Granted we've only been doing it for a week, but so far it's been wonderful.
