Some Awesome Thangs

Whoa today was a pretty great day, some exciting things going on right now. First awesome thing is that my younger brother Corey (one of the twins) just got home from his 2-year church mission today. He's currently in Florida with my Dad. I just talked to him for an hour, we have so much catching up to do. Corey and I are of the same mind, we have similar personalites. I can't wait for him to visit. It is going to be soon.

Another awesome thing is that I met a super cool guy and we've been hanging out. He's oozing with personality, hot, hilarious, brilliant, and really fun to be around. So I'm excited about that (although I try to play it cool...). It is so funny how things come along when you have the lowest expectations. I just love interesting, fun people and if I also happen to have chemistry with and am attracted to an interesting fun person AND its somewhat mutual... then hot damn! Let's do things.

Third awesome thing: I just weighed, and I've lost 2.5 lbs since my last post. That brings the total to 16.5lbs. According to my amazing tracking and planning spreadsheet, I am 4 days ahead of schedule. WOO HOO. lol 4 days. I am planning to be super clean the next few days because I would like to live it up a bit (read: drank) over Thanksgiving next week. That means ramp up the cardio whilst continuing to lift lift lift, and my eating must be on point. Getting super excited as the progress continues. It is too soon for me to start looking at specific figure events, but I am getting closer every day.

This week I made good choices so the proof is in the numbers that I must be doing something right. Went to the gym tonight for chest, triceps, core, and 30 minutes of cardio. Another great Friday night where the gym is empty. Had salmon/yams/veggies for dinner and am drinking water and tea this evening getting so hydrated. Totally enjoying some "me-time" for the next few days. Getting my hair and nails did tomorrow yay.

I love this time of year. Ok, I mean I really bitch about the snow and things but I do like cold weather to a point. I like the clothes and jackets and scarves and bundling up, the smell of fireplaces in the air, glamming up for holiday parties and New Year's eve. It is especially cool for me with the Project because I feel like the layer of warm clothing is my chrysalis to be shed come spring. It is hard not to by new clothes right now. I just don't want to buy items that won't fit in 4 weeks, so I am trying to be smart about any purchases.

hmmm I think there was one more awesome thing but I just can't remember. Some other time perhaps.
