Give me a break!!

I feel like I just cannot catch a freaking break!!

I get ready for the gym and I jump in the car to leave and...the car won't start.

*Sigh* What a freaking pain in my butt. We just dumped a bunch of money in the car a couple weeks ago for a new water pump and radiator. Luckily hubby and father in law are pretty handy with automobiles but it's still really frustrating since we aren't exactly made of money these days.

I didn't let that stop me from my work out though. I did my workout at home. I did 30 minutes of weights and then hit the treadmill for 30 minutes.

I was really looking forward to going to the gym tonight though. Boo!!

Also my cat is snoring very loudly right now. Could be sleep apnea. Ha ha.

I will be THAT person

No I don’t usually blog at work but today is a must.

I am wearing a shirt today that I haven’t worn in over 2 years. I have gotten several compliments about how good I look. 2 of my coworkers told me I looks skinny. They are my new BFF’s today.

I am also wearing my wedding ring for the first time in 2 years as well.

It’s the little things that keep me going.
Baby steps!

Hubby told me this morning he hoped I didn’t get too skinny when I got to goal. He does prefer me on the heavier side but only wants me to be happy. I don’t want to be skinny, I want to be healthy and I was healthy at 150 pounds. I prefer myself with some muscles.

I told him next year I plan to run some 5k’s. That, THAT is the person I want to be.

Also no gym last night so I’ll be going tonight and taping “The Biggest Loser”. I had to watch “Dexter” last night and that was an awesome episode. I hear that show. I forgot how good it was. It’s still my favorite show. I am still one episode behind on “Grey’s” right now.

And to prove I am a totally Twerd (“Twilight” nerd) one month from today, “New Moon” opens. My sister and I are going to see it. I am buying the tickets this week. Yep. I am 33 going on 14. Why do you ask?

The weekend is almost over!!

Great workout today!! I'm happy with the exercise mojo being back!! I'm going to try and go tomorrow night so I can catch "The Biggest Loser" tomorrow on Tuesday night. I didn't like missing most of it last night.

30 minutes of weights and 30 minutes of cardio today.

Now I have a yummy dinner cooking and looking forward to spending the evening with my hubby.

Too bad the weekend flies by so fast. Next Saturday we are going to Salem, Mass. I cannot wait!!

And it's snowing again.

Team Edward

Do you smell that? Can you taste it? Those would be the 230's. I'm so close right now I can SEE them. I am going to push myself hard this week and hopefully (fingers crossed) I will be there by Halloween!! I have 2.2 pounds to get there! I can do it! I can!!

I lost 0.8 (again) this week which is good considering I had Chinese food last Saturday. I told you I had a rough week last week and that was part of it. But getting back on the horse must have helped and that included 3 days at the gym.

My friend who ran the 5K came to visit me at work yesterday. We used to work together actually (she was per diem) but she left a couple years ago because it was too much for her working 3 jobs. She looks fantastic. And as always inspires me whenever I see her.

I just finished "Breaking Dawn" last night. It's the second time around for me reading the "Twilight" series. I just love those books and I'm surprised I didn't read the series again sooner. I can't wait for the "New Moon" movie next month. My sister and I have plans to go see it on opening night. Like we did with "Twilight". Personally, "Breaking Dawn" is my favorite and I can't wait to see what they do with that when they make it into a movie. I'm just saying. Ha.

Hubby and I may go see "Paranormal Activity" tonight. We'll see.

New cool blog

I haven't decided if I want to commit to this or not but I think it's a great idea. I actually have 18's and 16's. It's 14's that I will need when I get there. Check it out.

More snow talk

I totally rocked it at the gym tonight!! 30 minutes of weights and cardio.

Also PT took my measurements (I do keep tabs on them myself) and I am down with him, too. And my body fat is down, too. Rock on!!! He seemed pretty impressed with my push ups tonight. Guess I must be doing something right.

Of course with the snow, comes the horrible driving. The snow is not sticking to the ground and people are driving like there is a blizzard outside. Oh the fun has just started. Next week it's supposed to be in the 60's again.

My cats are loving one another. It's super cute.

Tomorrow is Friday!! Weeeee!!! I must get a pumpkin this weekend.
