i really just love the scissor sisters

Oh my it has been awhile! I'll skip all the bad stuff thats been happening. I'm just trying not to think about it. Lets talk about good things instead.

For instance, health! I've been pretty good at tracking my meals on www.sparkpeople.com and Ii think it's really helping! I'll want to eat something bad and think to myself oh crap, I have to put it on that website, and that's embarassing. So i don't! Today I was within my 1430-1780 calorie limit too, which is hard to do! The only thing I'm struggling with is working out. I obviously work out Tuesday for spin and Wednesday for kickboxing, but not much outside of that. BUT I'm super excited cuz the Y has up their class schedule for the summer and I already planned out what I'm taking!!

Tuesday PM: Body sculpting for 30 min
Wednesday AM: Aerobics for 30 min followed by Kickboxing for 30 minutes
Thursday PM: Spin class for 45 minutes followed by an hour of Yoga

I'm thinking that will leave me pretty burned out so Fridays will end up being a rest day, unless I don't work then I will try to go in and lift. Plus throw in walking the dog, maybe a run outside once a week. I'm feeling really good about this, and when I went home this week to my mom's I felt just a TINY bit thinner, and it was exciting cuz I haven't had that feeling in a LONG time!!

Anyways, I should get going. I need to carry sleepy dog upstairs to his papa so I can give myself a pedicure. Wedding season starts tomorrow in Grand Rapids!

I run for hope

Well race for the cure was a success! We had 16 total teammates (though only 14 made it to the race) and it was awesome! The broski had a bet w/me, whoever won the race between us 2 got to go to the survivor tent w/my mom (it was a special tent for survivors and ONE guest, all sorts of nice treats and nice and cool!). We ran together the whole race, and around the last curve he started to pull away a bit and i was HURTING bad. I hung on, kept waiting, and waiting, and finally at the last possible second i could, i kicked it in. I passed him a few years before the finish, and I don't even think he realized I was there. BOO YAH i won, haha.

I'm fairly certain I have some shape or form of asthma. I've noticed it doing certain activities in the past, but i had a ROUGH time catching my breath after I finished (apparently noticed by several people, as some volunteer rushed over to give me some water, haha). Twenty minutes later and my face was still beet red.
Just checked time results at playmakers.com, and despite still not being very fast at all, I was actually a whole 2 minutes faster than last year, so that's pretty cool. My goal for next year is to be under 33 minutes. Hmm...maybe I should run a 5k before then? We'll see!

Anyways, I think I'm gonna head to bed. Tomorrow is my only day off this week, so I'm gonna relax and enjoy it I think! Supposed to be crappy and rainy, but warm...but then again, today was supposed to be the same and it was pretty great! Later!

PS a big thanks to Drew, Mom, Jeremy, Ben (wish you would have been feeling better!), Dave, Lori, Davie, Kelly, Des, Derek, Buzz, Mary, Tier, Brig, Kevin, and Michael!

welcome one and all

well guys, i decided to start a blog. i used to use livejournal for EVER throughout college, but my lj is so dated now. it was soooo long ago! so i decided to use blogspot like everyone else, haha. don't expect anything too exciting here. i'll probably just ramble on about life, the maybe new house, the bf, the dog, growing up, etc.

can't make much of a post today. have to finish up laundry, take a shower, make lunch, play w/max, get ready for work, and do it all in about an hour and a half. which reminds me, laundry is almost done.

enjoy :)
