Inspiration

I am really trying to be inspiring to other people with my fitness journey.  I wanted to take time to thank the people in my life that have been inspiring to me in my fitness journey.  The first person I would like to thank is my dad!  He ran my 1^st 5k with me.  He could have done it in faster time but he stay with me & finished with me!  Since my 1^st 5k we have done 2 other 5k’s together!!  The second is my sister Bethany.  She is awesome with all the training & runs she does.  She has inspired me to train for a Half Marathon.  The third person that inspires me is my Best Friend Holly.  I got her started running & we have done several Runs together.  I always look forward to running with her.  OK I look forward to seeing her in general.  We keep each other motivated.  Every time we are together we laugh!!!

With that said I hope I am an inspiration to someone out there!!!

             

Until next time!!

Tinkerbell Half Marathon

I am trying to decide if I want to do the Tinkerbell Half Marathon in Disneyland?!?!  Well maybe I am not trying to decide, I want to do it but I need to convince my husband yes I should do it.  It is a little expensive, I would have to get to California & then I would have to stay somewhere.  The most I would have to pay for the race is $225!  But I would a highlight of me running!!  Not only do I love running but I LOVE Tinkerbell.  As far as getting there I could wait & not get my plane tickets for a while. And where to stay, I would stay at the Disneyland Hotel right there in Disneyland.  But I am also trying to get my best friend Holly to either do the 5k or the 10k.  She is not ready to do a Half yet.  And maybe, just maybe I get talk my sister Bethany to doing it to, then we can make it a girls trip.  I think it would be fun.  The race isn’t until May of 2015 so we all have time to train!!                    

Until next time!!

My Change

After I did my last post I started looking at older pictures of myself.  I did a side by side photo grid.  All I can say is WOW!!  Even if other people can’t see it I know I can.  I have gotten a few compliments on how I look.  I do know I want to look better though.  I just have to keep pushing myself.  My husband is a great motivator.  I go to the gym in the evenings & he cooks dinner.  So when I get home dinner is ready!!  He also know how much I like working out & he encourages me to get to the gym! 

On that note, I am rethinking my gym schedule.  I got a new class schedule from the gym, they don’t have step class anymore, which I am kinda bummed about!  The class changed to Step Pump Fusion.  I don’t know if I am going to try it.  They still have my bootcamp on Thursday, YAY!!!!  So I think I will run and/or ride the bike on Tuesday & Wednesday & do bootcamp on Thursday!! But in order to get to where I want to be I have to stick to my plan!!!!  Wish me luck!!!!              

Until next time!!

Hard Work

I am taking this post to vent a little.  I have been made aware that some people around me (people I work with) are jealous of how I have changed my body image & that I am dressing to show that off.  They are not talking to me & treating me differently.  I have worked really hard to get my body to this point & I still have work to do.  I want to say to them watch out there’s more to come.  Yes I am showing off a little more legs, more butt & yes more boobage.  So what!!  Last year at this time I was very self-conscious about I looked but I have worked my ass off to look as good as a can, so guess what I am going to show it off!!!  To all the haters out there SCREW YOU!!            

Until next time!!

Vacation Recap

I am back from vacation!!  Boo!!  We had a great time! I got to spend some quality time with family, which was amazing.  I go to see my Uncle Jim (my mom’s youngest brother), his wife my Aunt Angie, my cousin Erin & my cousin BJ.  I spent most days either at the adult pool & by the beach, drinking pina coldada’s.  I got up early most mornings and walked along the beach, it was beautiful.  There were a few days we got away from the resort & explored the island.  One day Cole went & learned how to surf & he will be surfing so much here in Oklahoma! LOL! I went with him & got a lot of sun!  Another day My dad, Cole, Erin, BJ & I all went to Pearl Harbor!!  That was amazing & very emotional.  Our big outing was going to the North Shore.  We left our hotel at 8 am, all 8 of us in a big SUV.  We made the 30 minute trip to the North Shore.  Our 1^st stop was a Coffee Farm.  We got a tour the coffee farm & learned how they get the coffee bean.  This was very interesting.  Our 2^nd stop was the Dole Plantation.  I was looking forward to this the most because I love pineapple.  We took a train around to plantation & got to see all the pineapples.  After the train ride we got the famous Pineapple Whip, which was amazing.  Our the 3^rd stop was a state park to walk to a water fall.  It was a beautiful walk & the waterfall was cool.  Our next stop was a Shrimp Farm where we had lunch.  The shrimp was so good!!  I wish I could have gotten more!  After the shrimp farm we made our way back to the resort.  Our last 2 days of our trip we spent in Waikiki.  Waikiki has some awesome shopping.  Ok well I really didn’t buy anything but I did a lot of looking.  I had amazing trip, however I am glad to be home.  But I will go back again!!!  FYI I took more pictures than what are included!       

Until next time!!

On Vacation

This will be a short & sweet post! 

Aloha! I am in Hawaii!  Having a wonderful time with my family!  My workout schedule is not the same as at home but I walk by the beach every morning!  It is beautiful!  The food here is wonderful!  I am hoping to be able to do Yoga on the beach sometime while I am here! Now for the pictures!

Aloha!
