Make a Pact to Fight the Frump
I love my husband. He is the most handsome man on this planet. We have known each other for a long time – since I was 12 years old. Still to this day I catch him looking at me like he wants to pounce and I love it. There is something very powerful in knowing your partner wants to do unspeakable things with you. It fuels a passion in our relationship and helps us maintain a healthy sex life – and I can’t stress the importance of a healthy married sex life enough.
We have made a pact to each other to keep fit and never let our bodies go physically due to laziness or not taking care of ourselves. Of course, we will always love each other blindly and know that one day we will both be wrinkly and sag in places we didn’t know we had. But the journey there will be so pact with passion and romance that by the time we get to that point we will still be so deeply in love that sags and wrinkles won’t matter.
Loving my husband is the only motivation I need to take care of myself. He is seriously a gift from God. I want to be healthy for him. I want to be fit for him. I want to look crazy hot in a bathing suite for him.
Not My Husband...LOL
When I lose inspiration, I think back to the years I was dating him or anyone else for that matter. Every time I saw him I made sure I was done up – mascara, hair, the whole nine yards. Honestly, if I put that much effort in for someone that I wasn’t committed to spending my life with – then I sure as hell should put at least that much effort in for my husband!
Sure, there are days when it is really hard. I forget, I get busy, my daughter is having a meltdown, and there are deadlines for work. But I step back to look at the bigger picture. My kids will grow up and leave the house. There is life after children or work, and that life I will share with my husband. So ladies! Exercise and eat healthy! Let’s be presentable when they get home from work. Wear that shirt he says he loves to see you in. Fight the Frump. Bring out your inner sexy (I know it is there) and take care of yourself! Trust me, your husband will LOVE this.

I love to write, learn, and share what I know - all while taking lots of pictures. I live in Los Angeles and am married to a very handsome man named Stan. We have a 5 year old Vizsla, a 3 year old daughter, and one on the way (due Aug, 2011). Thanks for stopping by!
