Some NSV's
Mar 17, 2011
Haven't been blogging like I should. So here are some updates on my progress.- Broke down and bought new jeans 2 weeks ago. Size 22 ( a little snug). Down from a very tight 24. Now the new jeans are a little lose in the waist.
- Attended my 1st class at Bally's. Straight Up STEP. I was a little afraid that I would make it thru the whole class. I did though. I kept up pretty well. Turns out it was more of an advanced step class. Still don't know what the hell a "U step" was. My feet were so confused. LOL. Hoping to make this a part of my workout schedule every week. Was told that Mondays were a little easier. SO I will give mondays a shot.
- Sleeping a little better. Still coming in spurts though due to this post nasal drip crap. Woke up coughing today, but I think I slept 5 hours. Slept almost 8 hours once this week.
- Haven't been having to take naps everyday. Not even on the days that I wake up at 5am, like today.
- Started drinking protein shakes again, atleast one a day. Still getting most of my protein from food though.
- My trainer up'd my workout a bit yesterday. She said that I did great. Boy, was I sweating a helluva lot more that I normally do with her. Beads of sweat dripping off my face. Felt so good though. Getting in 2 sessions a week with her and doing one on my own. This coming week though I will only have one with her. So I will have to get motivated and do another one on my own. I CAN DO IT!
Here goes my biggest NSV!!!!!!
- I was confident enough to buy a dress for my sisters wedding (which she doesn't know I am attending). It was even a little out of my comfort zone too. Sleeveless dress with White with hot pink flowers and some black accents and with a hot pink mini jacket. I have not been in a dress since my grandmothers funeral about 6 years ago. Didn't even have one in my closest for special occasions. This dress is brighter colors than I would normally wear (thanks to my sister saying "get something with color"). Is HOT PINK enough color AMY? Also got these cute little shoes with a heel that is a little higher than I would normally wear. Will post a picture from the wedding next weekend.
I have so much energy! I feel great in spirits and physically (even the sore abdominal muscles from yesterdays workout session). I am feeling so much more confident. Loving life so much!
