BUSTED!!!

I was BUSTED last night when I walked into the gym. I was met by the gym owner. "So how have you been doing on working out since you aren't working out with Mike anymore?" Tears in my eyes "Uh...not so good." I haven't been going to the gym as regularly. To be honest, I haven't even been doing really good work outs while I'm there. I realize I've come too far to slip now and I told her that. The problem is I used to make sure I was getting the workouts in because if I didn't when it was time for my session with Mike I wouldn't be ready. Work has been CRAZY! I come home and I'm tired and so it's easier to skip the workout. Bottom Line: Sonya is now going to be my accountability partner. I'm going to be getting text messages to make sure I get to the gym.

Oral comps are this coming Saturday. Nervewracking to say the least. It's a pass or fail. I've been studying and studying and studying some more. When this is over there will be a huge sense of relief and I had already promised myself that working out would move into the number one priority spot.

I ran into my two friends at the gym last night who follow my blog. We've set somethings up to workout together. I can't wait!!! This will be great for me. We have a plan for next Monday. Stadium stairs and lunging!!!

I really think I should not have brought left over cake truffles and cupcakes home from Mom's birthday party. It's pretty easy to grab one when you are studying. I'm taking those truffles to work today.

So here's the really funny story of my gym experience in the past week. I walked in last Thursday and a friend decided to give me his own advice. He told me if I put the treadmill at a 45 degree angle at 4.0 mph I would burn close to 300 calories in 30 minutes. I said, "That's a great idea! I'm going to try it right now!" Have you ever watched someone fall off the back of a treadmill because they couldn't keep up with it? Almost...that was almost me! I guess that is another goal to work toward.

I really appreciate those who have reached out to me during this time of transition. I feel so loved and blessed to have you in my life. After my last blog, I received emails, texts, and phone calls. It was AMAZING! You all are the best and I will make it through this journey because of all of you!
