8 Weeks

I can't believe 8 weeks have passed since I started going to Fit Energy.  WOW!  I had my final measurements done on Saturday.  I am officially down NINE INCHES!  Holy smokes!  I can't believe it.  What is even harder for me to wrap my head around is the fact that I am down 3 sizes in pants.  I went through my closet today and got rid of stuff I didn't wear/or didn't fit.  I also took the tags off of many clothes that I wouldn't wear before because I didn't like the way they fit.  Next week will be full of new outfits because I AM DOWN NINE INCHES!  OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Someone pinch me!  Okay, don't really pinch me....

Life has been a little hectic lately.  I just got a 2nd job.  I made sure to find something that still allowed me to work full time, go to school full time and STILL be able to go to Fit Energy.  SCORE!  I am super excited. 

I am also taking a boxing class on Tuesday.  I don't expect that I will be able to keep up with everyone in the class, and I may not be able to do everything that everyone else does... but guess what?  I AM GOING TO TRY ANYWAYS!  It's been something that has been on my "bucket list" for a while... and I feel ready to do it.  I am thankful that a bunch of people from work are going also.  It should be a fun thing!  I will keep you guys posted.

In other news, I had a doctor appointment for October 18th, but the doctor's office called to cancel.  I have been unable to reschedule, but I need to get in soon.  I have some stuff I need/want to talk to the doctor about... so I may be switching primary doctors next week. 

I booked my NKOTB Cruise 2014 and am super excited (hence the reason for the 2nd job).  I find myself even more excited because of my weight loss journey.  Danny (one of the members of the band) is a health nut.  He is also very happy/supportive of people who get healthy.  So I am eager to show him the results of #livinghealthy (his hashtag he uses quite often on Twitter).

Kyle and I have completed a few 5K run/walks over the past few weeks.  I am so happy that he has been running in the 5K's and improving his times.  I don't run (one day I will), but I do enjoy doing them.  We have done the Color Me Rad, Light the Night, Walk/Run for the Cure and have the MS walk coming up.  Kyle also wants to do the Zombie run.  Busy busy busy :)  But I love it.

Well, I have to go.  Taking an extra Fit Energy class tomorrow since I don't have class or work tomorrow.  WOOHOO! 

Thank you again to EACH of you who read this, text me, call me etc etc.... Being very open and public with my journey has kept me 100% honest with myself through this journey.  Thank you for being part of it :)
