I got a late start this morning. After getting to bed late, 6:30 was just too early. Luckily, I got to the gym by 8:45ish. I worked on the stationary bike, the elliptical, and the treadmill again today. The elliptical still enjoys being the bane of my existence! **shakes fist** I did the cardio setting on the treadmill and speed 2 (30min mile, I think . . . not really fast :P), and it kicked my ass. By the time I was done, you could have wrung me out like a soaked washcloth. It felt awesome! I'm really starting to enjoy my time there. Plus, coming up with playlists is fun! I wish working at the student radio station and playing heavy metal 2x/wk. It is so much fun playing around with iTunes and such ^_^

We went in to see our psych nurse this afternoon. She told me that I looked as though I had lost a lot of weight *squeal* She (and our marriage counselor) also commented on how happy I looked. I mentioned this to my husband and wondered whether the move from Depo the the Nuva Ring might be the cause. Depo shot my hormones out of order (not to mention 100+lbs gained!). He said that cooking/eating at home almost every meal and starting to exercise 5 days/wk really has lifted my spirits! Yay!! I feel so encouraged! *^_^*

I know I won't see a ton of changes all at once, but I keep getting my hopes up :P Crazy me!

In other news, I really, really want to be able to fit in these clothes!! That would be effing awesome! On a strange question, does it make a difference wearing high heels when you're bigger vs. when you're smaller? I've always been better in chunkier heels. As part of this process, I want to train myself to be able to wear high heels for extended time. These little beauties are my favorite!

Friday Challenge: Go to YouTube and turn on Dancing With Myself (the Billy Idol original or the cover by The Donnas -- my fav) and dance around the house! Fun!

First of all- I NEED THOSE SHOES!!!! Where oh WHERE did you snag them?

I am always clutzy in the skinny little heels. I usually end up walking on some weird floor surface that causes the teeny heel to seem like its covered in KY, causing me to slip and slide. I wear them on occasion, but prefer a thicker heel. Then again, I wonder if at 140ish pounds I might change my mind...

I walk a ton better in heels just being 35 lbs. It is amazing. Not to mention the stamina / less sore feet I have after a night in them.

Keep up the good work.
