So, today is the third day, tomorrow will really be the test, because I normally give up after the 3rd day.
Today I actually did an HOUR of CARDIO! I am so proud of myself....I had no idea I could do 5 miles at one time. Im trying to lose 20lbs by Christmas...which is the holiday that ALWAYS results in family picture taking....yay. Id like to not look so puffy this year..below is a picture from my sisterinlaw's (aka babymama) shower...I look like a whale, not to mention the puffy eyes I had from not sleeping/being so sick that day,but ofcourse being the host, I could not call in sick. It also would do no good for me, Id probably be accused of just being jealous of babymama...that's another story.
So the two pictures were taken 10 months apart...you can see how the face "swelling" seems to get worse. The left one was taken in Feb. at the baby shower for my nephew and the one on the right at a friend's bachelorette party.I never think I am "that fat" until I look at myself in pictures. So this is why I have made it my goal to lose atleast 80lbs! Wish me luck. If my body is as stubborn as I am, we will have some issues. On another note...I talked to my grandma lastnight....she kinda depresses me when I ask her about when they are coming down again...she said I don't know,
grandpa is 70 something, i forget, anyways she said he doesn't drive that well anymore :0(...sad. I found the bear she gave me when I was 6, as my going away present when we moved to San Antonio, it's now in our bedroom on the dresser and still goes by the name Brownie, naming my stuffed animals after sweets should have been a HUGE sign to someone. C'mon people. Oh, I almost forgot what I was talking about, so anyways, before I let her go she said it's so good to hear your voice when you call. This made my heart happy. I wish more then anything I could have a baby so they could meet the little fella(im convinced I will have a boy, which hopefully means I will end up with a girl :o) ) but, atleast on this side, (my mom's) I am not the only one without grandchildren, my dad's either. But, EVERY cousin in Derek's family has kids. NO JOKE. So, that puts alot of pressure on us. Well I know I have rambled, so I will end this peek into my life for now. I hope everyone has a WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY!
