Still working on myself, but making progress!

Mar 01, 2010

Well, I just had to buy a new pair of jeans today.  The jeans that I purchased for my trip in October fell off of me today while buttoned and zipped!  Yep, it's official--I've lost 10 sizes since last year!!  I'm still going to the gym 6 days a week, in addition to Pilates (2x's per week) and Advanced Zumba once a week.  I can't believe the changes in my body, mind, and spirit that I have brought about since changing my diet and exercise routine.

I've really taken to running as a main form of exercise, and am up to 25 minutes on the treadmill at 6.0 MPH.  I'm going to run a 5K later this year, as well as do something else I've never done before.  I'm going to attend my class reunion!  It's been 25 years since I've seen many of these women, and I want to blow their minds when they see me.  I've already picked out a RED dress that will look divine once I've gotten my body to look the way I want it to look.  I'm still a work in progress.

Oh, and I've changed my haircolor; I'm a brunette again.  I was really tired of the blonde with highlights--the upkeep was horrid and expensive, so my stylist took me down slowly.  My hair is now light brown with some blonde and red highlights in it.  It really makes my eyes pop and adds some dimension to my face.  I've also decided to let it grow longer, having some bangs cut in and layers that angle in toward my face.  I look 10 years younger, according to my friends.  My son is still calling me, "Pretty Mommy!" so he must approve of the changes!

I will continue to update as I make progress and hit more milestones.
