Sands of Time

Okay, the header might be a little cheezy. But, time really is a fickle thing. Misty and I have been doing this for 3 weeks last Wednesday and the days are long but the weeks are flying by. Misty and I have lost a significant amount of inches in those 3 weeks and I am proud to say that as of this morning I am officially down 1 size!! Yippee!! I can still wear my old size but there is a lot of wiggle room. And my new size is a tinnee winnee tight. But in a few days they will fit great!

I've also noticed that my face is a little thinner and my waist is less pudgy.

Now that I am starting to see some results I am more eager to do the workouts with Doriana at the gym and also to take additional classes like spinning or Fred's torture class on Saturday mornings. But Ive also noticed that although in the long run, fickle Father time is my friend, he is my enemy day to day. There is NEVER enough time to do everything that I need and want to do each day. For instance, everything revolves around my exercise and eating. I have to be 100% committed to doing it right to get the results that I want. So, that means I have to compromise on literally everything else. Yesterday, my family had decided to go to the fair. My kids were especially excited about this because they were meeting friends there. However, I had a client issue and was afraid if I made my family wait for me then I would miss my work out with Doriana and Misty at 430p. So, they had to go have summer fun without me. Although it worked out for me to stay home and work/workout I still missed my family.

Also, Misty and Steve have really good friends coming into town this weekend and asked if we wanted to see a movie Friday night. To Mistys and my dismay we realized that if we went to a late movie on Friday we would kill ourselves Saturday morning in Fred's class. So, in order to keep with our exercise schedule we had to rearrange every ones schedule to accommodate ours and see it Saturday early evening. What a bummer. No more spontaneous.

I keep reminding myself that this hectic schedule is only until the middle of January. But in the dog days of summer that seems really far off.

But, I guess I'll just keep taking it one day at a time.

  1. Sacrifices now may mean more days to spend with your family in the long run. It's totally worth it.

    Love you! You're doing great!!!
