Yes, I am 33 years of age and I just quoted Hot Chelle Rae.
It HAS been a wacky couple of weeks--really, the whole month thus far has proven to be a bit of a challange. Personally. Professionally. You name it.
And when balls are dropping, I'm generally accustomed to catching them in a glass of wine or on a plate of (insert delectable, rich ethnic food here).
But not this time. This time I managed to stay the course. Keep my ass in gear. And in a week I dropped 5.6 lbs.
Unfortuately, it's missing a zero. Dropping 50.6 lbs--now THAT would have been a week worth blogging about.
In all seriousness, I actually kinda surprised myself by keeping it together. Perhaps I pulled motivation from the fact that I tried on my blatantly too small wedding dress and it's like 4 inches short of closing. Or from being able to lay off Prilosec b/c I'm not eating crap. Or from a dear friend who decided to get off the couch a mere few months ago and is now not able to make it to my Vegas bachelorette soiree b/c she is running in her first half marathon. Or maybe due to my fiance shouting after me as I was lapping him while doing my first day of Couch Potato to 5K Runner, "How are you so fit for being so fat." Or realizing the money that we are saving by eating out much less (like only once in the last seven days) is better used for things like dog cancer surgery.
Whatever it is, I plan to continue to harness it.
