healthy train | week 36.

 

So, to be COMPLETELY honest with you all… these past five weeks, I've been so ridiculously busy that I haven't made working out and eating SUPER healthy a priority.  That doesn't mean I've given up… it just means that I'm not going AS crazy with it.  I did manage to lose 3.6 pounds.:DTOTAL WEIGHT LOSS: -34 pounds*:DYEAHYEAHYEAH!!!!!

*since I've been doing this healthy train for so long… from now on, I'm going to go with my total weight loss since the VERY beginning of Healthy Train, version one.  K? K. Hey, it's my train… and I make the rules!;)

 

You may be wondering why I'm standing on that ottoman.:)Well… you need not wonder any longer… I'm going to tell you:DThat ottoman weighs 33 pounds, PRETTY close to the amount of weight that I've lost:)Crazy, huh!?

 

For those of you who follow me on twitter… you know that I went to go try on my wedding dress this morning… as I'm about 3.5 pounds from the same weight I was when I got married:DWELLLLL… who knew that 3.5 pounds on a 5'2" frame was THAT big of a deal… the dress zipped (victory!) but… was QUITE tight.  SO, that's my goal for the next weigh in… to FIT into THAT dress!  

Next weigh in… July 31st.  We're doing a LOT of traveling between now and then so here's hoping that I can lose it!  For my sanity, I'm not going to set my goals TOO high as being this busy and planning meals/workout times REALLY adds to my stress/anxiety levels.  SO, goal for next weigh in: -5 pounds.:DI CAN DOOOOO IT!!!!

Man oh man, I'm so proud of all of us, aren't you?! Losing weight, and sticking with it THIS long is NO easy task… so big ol' props to us!

So, tell me… how did YOU do?! What are YOUR goals for the next six weeks?! YEAHHHH!

Much love to all of you… and thank you thank you THANK YOU for standing beside me and cheering me on!  Our blog readers ROCK!:D

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Niki and Justin are such an awesome couple.  They're genuine, laid back, go-with-the-flow, up for anything and as a bonus…  laugh at all of my HILARIOUS jokes.;)

Mike and Justin are two peas in a pod!  They're both so dang nice that they make friends with everyone they meet (to include random parking lot attendants!):DOh, and they even were wearing the same shoes.:DMeanwhile, Niki, who works for a marketing firm… she and I could talk about our love for good branding all night.  Yes yes yes, come join our club… it's fun here, we swear! :D 

These two are getting married New Years Eve this year… YEAHHHH!!!!! We genuinely can't wait. :D

Much love friends!

¡28!

 

So rumor has it someone's turning 28 today…not that anyone's been counting down to today like a gleeful 9 year old about to hit 10. :) 

Last year, we celebrated by taking off the weekend and seeing Wicked in Chicago (aka "Shikaga" depending on where you're from).  

This year we did stay in town, and did photo a wedding.  Laura and Joe and all of your family, you guys were a wonderful kick off to Bobbi's birthday!  They even had a birthday cake for Bobbi yesterday evening…how freaking awesome are our couples!?

And for today, lunch with friends (Lauren and Robbie!) and then, as you can tell by the photo, it's time for a wardrobe update!  Hello 1992!  Actually, Ms. Thang here doesn't have a lot left in the closet after a year of busting her butt at the gym and trading bon bons and cheetos for carrots and humus.  I've started her off today with a few pieces from the always awesome Silver in the City on Mass Ave and we'll see where she goes from there!

Happy Birthday, girl. :?:

Meet my friend Kristen.:)…who also happens to be my personal trainer.

We laugh… a lot… sometimes too much;)

She’s also crazy hothothot.  PS… HELLO TRAPEZOIDS!

…and a VERY good jumper!  I made her do this jump again and again and again and again:)Uhm… MY turn to be in charge.;)She was even a bit sore the next day… MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!!!!

Oh, and if she ever wants to be a country music artist… this is her album cover. k? k.

ARE YOU FLIPPING KIDDING ME WITH THIS SEXINESS?! KRISTEN!!!!!!  YOU ARE ONE RIDICULOUSLY HOT TAMALE!!!!!!

 

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Kristen has been training me since October:)We work out at the National Institute of Fitness, where Kristen has been pushing pushing pushing me even when I’m being the most ridiculous drama queen you could EVER imagine (okay, maybe you can imagine it…).  She’s been an awesome support system through all of my ups and downs.  As some of you may or may not know from past blog entries… this whole “healthy train” has been much harder and much more emotional than I ever imagined it to be… and she’s been incredibly patient through it all.  She knew of my potential and hasn’t let me give up on myself.  I’m now nearly 30 pounds lighter than I was then… and that’s no easy feat.

As a HUGE thanks to her for making me feel a WHOLE let better about myself and pushing me to a whole new level…. I thought I’d repay her with some hot photos, check and MARK!

Kristen, I can’t thank you enough:)Now… I’m ready to lose this last 20 BAAAAABY!

MUCH LOVE!
