Week 2

The coolest thing happened at the gym today. After I did my 30 minutes of cardio I started to work on the weight machines when one of the trainers I made a bet with when I signed up, came over and said he will show me a good workout. I thought pretty cool and now I will know exactly what I should do, well it was cool but he kicked my but. My muscles were shaking and I was sweating like a dog. I feel great though and he said I can work out with him every time I come, we are meeting again on Wednesday! I also found out he owns an Argentinian restaurant that has a tango show and I told him that my husband owns an auto shop and now he is going to take his car there to get fixed becuase we can give him a better price. Don't get any crazy ideas, the man is in his 40's and is just very serious about working out. He even said he would train David but I still cant get him to the gym so I don't think that will happen. I am totally amped and although I will be sore tomorrow at work I cant wait to get to the gym on Wednesday and work out again.

Also I am only going to post my measurements and weight once a week because I feel it is more accurate that way.

Before Picture

Here is a before picture from me. This is from last summer but I was actually heavier then weighing in at 140.

The gym

I am so proud of myself. I have gone to the gym everyday I have had off from work except for today (Went out last night and don't feel so hot). In the last 11 days I have lost 2 pounds and gone to the gym 6 times. That means only 12 more pounds to go! This is the first weekend I have had off since getting my membership and really need to go to the gym and stick to my goal of going every day I have off but it is going to be hard. These weekends are usually for David and I to spend quality time and run errands together, so in order to not take away from that, I am going to have to get up and go in the morning around 9ish. Also I am posting my waste and hip measurements, I know crazy but I think it will really motivate me if everyone knows my progress along the way. Here it goes!

Start weight - 134 Goal weight- 120
weight today- 132
Waist - 31.5 Goal waist- 28
Hips- 42 Goal hip - 39
Thigh - 21 Goal - 20
Arms- 11

Oh, how much this sucks to post the truth but I am giving myself twelve weeks. Wish me luck! I will post once a week on my progress.

Blah, Blah, Blah

So yesterday I got a new gym membership. I am very excited because it came with a few free personal training sessions. Wish me luck because tomorrow is my first session and I have a feeling it is going to be painful, haha. I made a bet with the guy who signed me up that I can lose 15 lbs in 6 weeks, he said 12, I will show him. He also said no carbs and I started to laugh becuase anyone who knows me should know that no bread, chocolate or pasta is out of the question. I guess I will just have to eat a little less of those things but just a little less!

Also I have another sinus infection, uhh, I feel like I am being followed by a black sick cloud because I cannot get well for the life of me.

Jewelry

While I was in Spokane my Dad took me to the bead place were he gets the gems and beads to make his jewelry and he bought me some beads. IF you don't know my Dad makes beautiful jewelry. He even made my pearl set for my wedding. Anyways I got to make my own necklace and bracelet with his help. It turned out so cute and I can't wait to go out so I can wear it!

Spokane

I just got home from a much needed trip to Spokane/Cheney. It was nice to just relax, kinda and spend time with my parents all by myself. I also spent some time with some friends that I hadn't seen in almost a year and my cutest little niece Haley. The weather was so nice and sunny and we even had a BBQ.

A little more updates. Daisjurr's birthday was April 5th and we didn't do anything, just cake and gifts with the 3 of us. He went to Spokane the week before to visit family and came home on his birthday exhausted and sick from staying up all night long with his cousins all week, oh well he had fun. Also we have finally began the paperwork and obtained a lawyer so we can officially buy the business now that we have all of the money. If all goes well David will be the new owner of Seattle Auto Service Center, May 1. Another exciting thing is my brother and his girlfriend are coming to visit May 7th through the 11th from the East Coast. He will be here in the middle of both our birthdays so we are going to celebrate together, which is something we haven't done since we were kids.

Here are some pics!!!
