July 2009, Losing Fast!!
Jul 19, 2009
Hard to believe we are half way through the summer already! I am great and still loving every minute of my new life. So much going on now it is great! I have taken to "The Calorie King" to start keeping track of my intake, and what a difference. Just making myself more aware of what I take in has really helped. The scale is moving to the tune of 140 lbs lost. Amazing!
So far summer has been great. I have made 2 trips to Wonderland and am happy to report that I can do everyride there! It was so amazing to ride the rides again, it had been FAR too long. I have a season pass and plan to go a couple more times for sure.
My friend is getting married in Septemeber and I went to buy a dress yesterday... I got one... in a size 18!!! Who am i??? Crazy, 3 summers ago I was going to another wedding I had to get an ugly peasant top in size 28-30 as that is all that would fit. Yesterday I had my pick of the dress store... was awesome!! Single tear moment as we say. I got a beautifal black number that I cannot waitto wear... check my photos for a sneak peek!
I am still diligent with the workouts. I do 2 miles 5 days a week on the treadmill, some crunches and weights as well so that is getting me into pretty good shape. My legs are toned and my arms are getting better. The belly fat is taking it's sweet time though. I do as many sit ups as I can to get that tighter lol.
Like I said, life is great. I am only really struggling with 1 thing. Dating. I have been out of the loop so long now that I am having a hard time getting into it. I want a boyfriend really bad but am nervous. Nervous because it has been so long and the shape and damage I have done to my body. I look awful and no amount of tanning and weights will fix it all. Ihave tried some dating sites and had offers but always chicken out when it comes to meeting someone. I see guys looking on the street now and some make comments, it is a blast but still I am nervous. I know it will all happen when it is supposed to, but am just so sick of being single!
Will report again soon.... thanks for letting me vent!!!
