Let's see if I can keep it up!!

((I am ill with a cold currently so my diet is kinda rocky, but I'm gonna give working out with mucus coating my lungs a try....or maybe rest for a couple days?? I'm not sure.))

I'm so excited!

We plan to have a big reveal of our results this coming Monday before workouts and I'm so stoked to see the evidence of the changes I've been feeling so much lately. Diet, regular workouts and constant water consumption combined should make a huge difference all together. I've decided to make this whole thing public, at least to those who are approved.

(from top of skull to under chin) Head: 25 in

Bust: 49 in

Under bust (ribs): 44 in

Weight and measurements will be recorded and posted every two weeks or every ten exercise days. I'll see if I can talk my workout buddies into letting me show their progress on this blog as well. Anyway--much love and affection.

Let's Start at the Beginning

From the last time I posted (in March of 2010) a lot has happened...obviously. So I'd like to start where I left off. After school ended I moved out of my stinking shared apartment. And to Provo for the summer. I moved about three blocks away from Thayne and lived with three roommates: Stephanie, Sarah and Natalia. The latter two.....well....The first mentioned, Stephanie is one of my closest friends, even now. I adore her!

She is a senior at BYU and recently finished her first (and last) volleyball season with them. She transfered from U of A though so she was a total volleyball pro. She made my summer great fun!

Also Jake, a guy I friended real quick on Craigslist helped me enjoy my time in Provo.

I worked the summer away at APX Alarm headquarters in Provo and loved the times I had there as well.

Over the summer I painted:

I partied:

and I played games...lots of games:

what this picture is portraying, it is Michael Meyers

and Friday the 13th.

Duh"))

And after my last day of work at APX I had surgery. I just went into the 24 hour clinic to have my armpit cyst looked at because it hurt, and they offered to take it out. I said, "uh....OK!" and they did it. I was only in the clinic for 2 hours and it only cost me about $25 since I was unemployed without insurance. So, score. (but no pics, sorry...kind of.)

more to come, shortly.

Chris Brown said it best

I'M BACK!!! Sorry I was gone for so long, folks but I'm back with a vengeance! I have a ton of news but not a lot of pictures but I'll do what I can.

First item of news: I'm taking a semester off of college.

When I first considered doing so I felt it would be the end of the world. But then I considered going back for the second semester and then THAT felt like the end of ME. I officially withdrew Sunday morning after MUCH personal deliberation and prayer. I have vowed not to waste my time. I'm hoping to get more work, get fit, and learn some awesome stuff (guitar, crocheting, quilting, brail, moris code, etc).

Already I've got not only a workout plan but three amazing workout buddies. And yes, they are my family members.

This was not my new years resolution, however. No, this is something I hope to do the rest of my life, not just during 2011. I started Monday (and have already lost 4 lbs!!)

My new year's resolution is to use a talent each day. Whether it's sewing, singing, writing, listening to someone's troubles, giving advice or crafting IT DOESN'T MATTER!! I will not hide my God given talents for another day!

SO! That's it for now. I'll work on the picture thing today or tomorrow. Thanks all! Love ya!
