Weight is up from yesterday. sigh... It seems if I weigh myself daily, I'm more prone to the ups and downs the scale brings. Yet, if I don't weigh myself daily, or at least every couple of days, then I let things get too far out of hand. I even bought the Zero Scale. Cool concept - you only have to see how much you are up or down from your previous weigh in, and the total weight lost from the first time you weighed yourself on the scale. Of course, there's a feature for just seeing your actual weight and because I'm a masochist, I generally weigh myself both ways.
I did an actual workout today. :D I think Sarah was a nice kick in the ass for me last night. Thanks, Sarah! And then just checking in on Bren and Stef, seeing how THEY seem to be able to keep plugging away in spite of the multitude of ups and downs of LIFE - that helped motivate me some more.
Looks like I'm reinstating my love affair with Shaun T! lol... This time, however, we merely dance together. The days of Insanity are over for this boob self-loving woman! He's much too hard on fake boobs - do not want to risk ending up all wall-eyed from his insistence on push-ups! He also does a lot of high-impact (aka boob sacrificing) moves on his Insanity workout. Not for this woman - I'm loving having my boobs all perky and hope to see them stay that way for a long time to come. But the dude can dance and I'm a-dancing with him! And you know? He's a lot kinder than he used to be. hmmm...
So much has happened over the last few months. Things I'll skip or maybe save for PM's. But I DO want to share one fantastic thing that has happened. You remember Klannoye? That crazy, fun-spirited, lovable woman... that became a grandmother about 8 months ago... ANYWAY.. hopefully you remember her. Guess what?! WE MET!!! Yep, she and her husband came out to AZ and visited her sister-in-law and drove up here to spend a couple of (too short) days with me! We've emailed daily for over a year and a half, just love this girl, but didn't ACTUALLY believe we'd meet in person. Well, that's not exactly true - I just thought it would take years. The best part? She's exactly the way I knew she'd be. And her husband is a great guy, too! Had SO much fun with them! The day they arrived we went to Scottsdale to walk around Old Town some, shopped a little, stopped for drinks and snacks, came back here and had dinner with the family around the fire pit, and Klannoye and I ended up sitting up drinking wine and chatting until almost 5:00am! Couldn't believe it was that time! Went out for coffee the next day to a cute little neighborhood coffee place and then took a couple hour boat cruise along Canyon Lake. Perfect weather, had a blast. It was so sad when they left to go back to Tucson again, and then home to WI from there :( But damn, we had a GREAT time!
