down a size :)

this workout stuff is really working!! I was down another two lbs today...making the total loss 12. The other day I went to the mall and bought a pair of jeans. I tried them on in my size, only to realize they were too big and I had to get one size down! It was fantastic. I'm pretty happy with my results...and I'm quite happy with myself for being committed and sticking to it. Good for me!! :) I really like making myself a priority (especially when it leads to me dropping sizes and fitting into clothes i haven't been comfortable wearing for a while)

Oh, and it doesn't hurt that the gym is filled with amazing eye candy....

Making progress.....5 lbs down

I'm guessing my trainer was right on when he said changing my diet to 5 small meals a day would make a big difference. Although it's more time consuming and I'm eating some weird stuff, it's clear my metabolism is up...i already feel different. i am definitely committed. i'm sure these quick results won't be the average, but it's nice for now :) I can say I am proud of myself!

It's nice to actually look forward to getting on the scale....

on my way to a new me...

so, i signed myself up at Rhino Fitness on thursday...not just the monthly membership, but personal training sessions too....and i can't wait to see results. i have worked out the past 3 days now...hey, its a start. i have decided to make myself a priority -FINALLY- and i'm gonna stop my bitching and just do it. i'm sick of looking like hell...and now that recovery from surgery is well over, its about time i got my ass in gear.

so today was my first session with Matt, my trainer, who is hilarious. it's clear we will get along. he already gets me and i think he will be very effective. i already went to the grocery store today and got yummy stuff to help change my diet. now i'm doing 5 small meals a day with the right ratio of protiens/fiber/carbs/yada yada. tomorrow i am going to get some new shoes and some arch support...apparently my right foot has a colapsing arch. who knew?

so, next week the fun starts. training with Matt on tues/thurs. 1 hour of cardio 6 days a week. (i'm hoping that the training will count at least partially on my one hour quota...haha)

wish me luck!!! think skinny thoughts :)
