Gym? Who Needs a gym...I Danced!

So Friday was a bit Crazy...it was a bit Chaotic.....and it was 100x100x100x100 times Awesome!~ the most Amazing people hosted the most Amazing party for May the Fourth be With You! Live Dj, a dedicated chef, rocking lights, and some wicked awesome folks who came to party! I danced so much, I was coated in sweat by the time we got home after 2 am! No lie!

I never did make it to Curves on Friday, just had too much going on. But it turns out, I didn't need the gym!

Gains and Losses

Lost 5 Inches (4 at my thighs and 1 on my waist) but gained 3.75 lbs...yet I say I feel better, and I KNOW muscle mass weighs More than Fat....Goal: 3x a week attendance if not more.  Must lose at least 5 lbs this month.
I am NOT discouraged, I am Motivated! Gonna get this!

Almost time

It's almost time for my Weigh In...worried. Nervous. Excited. Will I have lost? How Much? Wish me Luck!

My Strange Addictions or Obssessions

So, I have Amy Su to thank for my addiction to RedBull. Thank you, Amy Su. However, it's my Mom who is to blame for my addiction to "everything bread" with butter. I know most folks despise WalMart, but that's where this bread is found. You can buy French or Italian style, and make sure once you open it, you seal it in a ziplock bag and place in fridge {this works best if you cut it in half}, so that it stays fresher longer. Elysia "Elly" Eddington is responsible for my newest addiction to BabyBel cheese. My newest obssession is my hair. I LOVe my hair, and I want it to be the Brightest most Vibrant RED I can get it, without looking like a clown or fat anime fan girl. I got word the Sally's is now carrying the new Ion Color BRIGHTS selections, and I'm excited to go check them out!

I'm eagerly awaiting my workout today too....I get to weigh in after my first month. I'm a little bit nervous, and a little bit scared. I know muscle weighs more than fat. I did note tow improvements - I can carry my son with one arm; i.e. when he's draped over it while extended in front or to the side of me, and, I can balance on one foot; this was discovered while showering and needing to shave my legs.

I'll have news after my workout today!

Day31

So today was good. Yesterday, well...not so much. Last Month was rough, with lots going on, but I made it through. I'm hoping to get some real sewing projects underway soon. We're about to start moving my mom down this month into her apartment. I'm a bit nervous as to how she'll handle it.....moving from the peace and quiet of the country to the noise of the city can be really difficult. ANYways, tomorrow is my "weigh in" day at Curves. I'm really loving this whole new perspective. I'm hopeful that I will see improvement. I've already noted a change in my energy levels and overall attitude. I'm so lucky to live Right next door to the Curves here, and that my boss is so cool about me taking an hour from work to go workout. I make sure the office is covered, so there's no productivity loss.Overall, I think that this is one of the best things I have done thus far. I'm looking forward to Summer Vacation in Hot Springs too! I'm thinking of extending it a day or two...we found a nice house to rent for less than a hotel, and I'm anxious for June to get here!

Side note: yesterday was not so good because there was an electrical fire at Curves during the middle of my workout....their AC Unit caught fire and then caught the insulation. the Fire Department took care of the issue, and building maintenance is making repairs/replacements. I'm glad I was able to work out today...I was somewhat worried I wouldn't because of the smoke from the fire. But all was well...
