Day 1

I am sitting here knowing I have to go to work in a mere 4 hours, and have not slept.... but I am considering doing some Zumba.  I have to start somewhere - right?  I figure if I work out for a half hour, I get day 1 under my belt, and hopefully I can nap when we get back from picking up Teri.


How does that sound?  Ok... I am going to give this a shot!


(5 hours later)


Yes, so thankfully my post was saved because I totally forgot about this.  I was running around like a mad woman trying to find any wii remote so I could Zumba.  I checked high and low, and Coltan showed me where one was hidden under the living room couch.  Thanks, what a little turkey =).  Anyway, I am proudly say that I did complete one Zumba session.  It kicked my butt.  I looked like a spastic geek.  I loved every minute.  I felt WONDERFUL after (and still do, even though I have now only had 3 hours of sleep).


I am sure fatigue will catch up with me in a few hours, but I have a feeling tonight will fly by because the floor is packed and I am the only PCA on tonight.  Good times.


Ok, so back to the zumba.  It really is so much fun, maybe in time I will get some rhythm along with getting in shape (haha).  I ate a fiber one bar, because I am all about eating lots of fiber (not only for dietary reasons, but colon cancer really scares me).  I am about to eat a chicken/spinach/artichoke lean pocket, and later will have some broccoli and rice.  Oh!  I also brought a banana! 


My family (Dustin, Mom, Dad, and myself) resumed our biggest loser contest.  We are going to do smaller increments, like 2 week periods, and have a mini winner each week.  One of my problems is when I have a bad week, or bad day even, I feel like I have ruined all my hard work and give up.  I am hoping that by starting fresh every 2 weeks will give us all the opportunity to stay on track.  Besides, I want to look great in that wedding dress in a few months.


Speaking of ... wedding.  It is LESS THAN 4 months away!  I don't even know how time has flown by, but that is what has seriously motivated me to work out even when I am exhausted, and not to eat crappy even when I am starved and exhausted, haha. 


That is just about it from my world, I can't wait to get Cory back this weekend.  I miss him like crazy when he goes to his Dad's house, especially those sweet hugs and a little voice calling out for "Mama."  What a little doll.

I've lost 29 lbs in the last few months and one thing that I have found to help is to let myself have the things I want to have, I just have to be careful with how much of it i have. I also tend to exercise longer and harder if I do give into one of my cravings! Good luck! Finding motivation is not easy!!

I read this on the day you posted it and wanted to comment but I was reading on my phone and commenting isn't very easy that way.

Anyways. go you!! I will never get how you can get practically no sleep, work like crazy, and have a family yet you motivate yourself to work out! It's inspiring!!

However, my biggest love of this post...WEDDING!!! I'm so excited for you!!!!!!!
