Oh No She Didn't!

Apr 15, 2010

Yesterday....and I'll be marking my calendar.....I did one mile (and some change, but I'm not bragging) on the ELLIPTICAL machine.....now I don't know about anyone else, but that is a huge WOW moment for me.

This time last year I got my butt on that thing, and approximately 38 seconds into it, I thought I was going to die. I seriously thought that some evil creature had made this torture device to kill me. I hated that thing....hate is even a word that is way to light for this thing. My friends would get on and do like 40, 50 minutes...sweating rockets too, and I would just look at them like they were crazy.

I don't know what my problem was last night, but when I walked into the gym, I was like...."here goes nothing", heck I go to this gym called Planet Fitness, and its a "judge free zone", so I figured, nobody's ass better judge me if I can only do 2 minutes on this contraption!  I closed my eyes and got busy....after 5 minutes when I realized not only was I still breathing, but not sweating blood, I knew I could do the 20 minutes I typed in. I was sooo proud of myself. After that I was like "Ok...peace!". No need to act like I'm an instructor....I rolled right out. I felt awesome too. I mentioned that last part about leaving because one early morning....somewhere around 0'dark 30, I was at that freaking gym on the treadmill,  and after my mile I decided I was going to leave. One of the guys was like "but you just got here".....Hello? Who asked him, and was he talking to me or my legs, because my legs said they needed to leave. I'm sure I could have stayed there all damn day, but with the lower half of my body detached, that wasn't going to look good to anyone coming to work out!

'Nother "wow moment" this morning.....I had to adjust my seat in the car....go figure! There seemed to be a huge gap between me and the steering wheel. I wonder if my husband will notice next time he drives :0)

Oh, and I put on these size 20 skinny jeans like a week and a half ago, and I was beyond "muffin top"....more like "fluffin top". I could barely button them and when I did, I think I chipped my rib.... Last night, I put those suckers on, and not only did they fit, I didn't have to suck my tummy in....this is beyond incredible.

Its like I'm the star of this weird weight loss show, except there is no Jillian Michaels... and every week I'm losing just a little bit more, but have no idea how I'm doing it. I can technically eat really, anything I want, which is kinda scary, since my sweet little pouch doesn't have many restrictions. Because of this I just have to make smart decisions but seriously, this is crazy.
I mean, I still can't eat more than maybe a half cup to a cup, but all meats taste the same to me, sometimes depending on how they are cooked they are denser and fill my pouch after like 2 or 3 spoonfuls, but I was under the impression that all food would either taste like poison or make me violently ill...none of that has happened really.  Everyone is like your looking better and better, and I'm like really? Coz i don't see it...in my body anyway.

I know I'm losing weight in my face....I spent all of 40 minutes trying to make a double chin in the mirror, lol.

Until next time pretty people
