This blog has evolved from a gospel music review to all things me. I'm going to continue reviewing gospel music but I will also share other things that are part of my life including but not limited to the Word of God, natural hair, current events, product reviews, etc.

It wasn't a killer workout but the strength training was on point because as I sat at work today (Tuesday) doms (delayed onset muscle soreness) sat in. I take that as a sign that I'm on the right track.
The plan was to do water aerobics today but I cancelled that. I have to remember that I'm just starting and my muscles need to recover.
Food yesterday and today was good. Under calorie goal.
Have a good night

August 5th 2012 saturday review
On to the pool water aerobics was good. It's been a while since I've been the water basically because I don't trust pools. Especially public pools cuz people are nasty and chlorine doesn't clean or kill everything but I digress. I definitely worked muscle groups the I had long forgotten about.
So after class I was in the pool doing a lil extra cardio and was approached by a 75 year old Asian lady I swear she looks 50. Anyway she began to asks how often i come to the gym and explains to me how important exercise is to your health especially as you age. She said 'exercise comes first', when she said that I thought 'no God comes first' and before I could figure out how to saw it the politically correct way (smh) she asked if I know about God or went to church. I replied yes and we had a great conversation about being filled with the Holy Spirit and how we don't have any strength or power without God and how he made her happy. She talked of trusting God because of Romans 8:28
"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." So even though bad things happen good can come out of it.
I can't begin to really convey or share everything but I enjoyed my day of working out.
My food journal was on point until later that day. But I'm not ashamed. If you want to see the details friend me on MyFitnessPal.com I am SheeTacular.

Be blessed
