Just thought I would write a quick update on how things are
going so far. Three great things have happened this week:
1.
I finished all of my teacher certification
courses and all my tests are passed!
2.
I am officially in the 170s (14 pounds down!)
3.
Bought plane tickets to go see my bestie in
Boston on spring break!
Last week I only worked out once and we went out on Valentine’s
Day, not a good week fitness-wise however an awesome week because I LOVE Valentine's Day. Definitely had some wine, chocolate & ate a "real" dinner (no shake). We went to the dog races in Houston, which was a ton of fun a. because I love dogs b. because I love gambling. It was difficult to limit
myself to just one drink, but I’m glad I did. I am proud of myself for making
good choices the day of valentine parties here at school also. I knew having one cookie
was nothing to feel guilty about. Didn’t lose weight last week, but hey didn’t
gain any either!
This week I have gotten back on track. Yesterday’s spin
class was really hard and I did not want to go, but I am so glad I did. Weighed
in after class at 179, which was really exciting. Bought some new workout pants which are compression and much more comfortable to wear on a bike rather than my typical Nike shorts. Most of my work pants are way
too big and I only have two pairs of jeans that fit. These jeans haven’t fit
for about a year so I’m glad I didn’t actually take them to goodwill. I am
waiting till June to get more (smaller =) ) clothes because I want to be
another size down before the end of the school year. So looks like this spring
I will be wearing mostly dresses to work. What a great problem to have!
Jacob and I are still shopping for bikes and have decided to
wait until May to purchase. Definitely decided to go with mountain bikes with a
switch suspension rather than getting a road bike for several reasons. I feel like we are buying a car we have
shopped around so much! We cannot wait to get them with future plans of
going to different state parks and riding around in Galveston during the
summer. I think our big summer camping trip will to either be to Garner State Park or Big Bend National Park.
