catch up!

I've been way too lazy to post anything new. It is probably because I posted like 6 posts (that were pretty lengthy) in 2 days. I am glad that I got all the Belize posts checked off my list. The sad part is that I was not even able to show you a dent of all 3,000 pictures, so maybe when I get bored and get my external hard drive which has all the pictures working then I can post some more occasionally when I have nothing exciting going on in my life :)

Anyway, the real reason I have not been posting is because I am so busy losing weight. Okay, not really, but my mom, jessica, and I have started weight watchers! We started exactly a week ago, so our second weigh in was today. So we all got to see exactly how much weight we lost! It makes me think of The Biggest Loser, my favorite show! Anyway, I lost 5 pounds this first week, my mom lost 3, and jessica (who really has nothing to lose) lost 2 pounds! So we were pretty excited about that. I am hoping to lose another 5 pounds this week! I have never been on a diet ever before, so it was definitely a change to being able to eat whatever and now being limited. It definitely has not been bad at all! I do not feel deprived of food at all. Also, I already feel like working out is easier! Today i ran/walked for 70 minutes and did 5 miles! I kind of felt sick, like almost throwing up while running which was odd, so i feel like I probably could have done it faster if I wasn't feeling sick. My knees felt great until the last mile, so even that is a HUGE accomplishment. AND my knees didn't really swell up. so YAY! I have been taking glucosamine every day for a month so I think it is really working!

Update on my taxes! So 2 days before the deadline, everything got worked out, I ended up having to file on paper instead of electronically, so it is going to take longer to get my money back. I'm just glad that it all worked out. But now the second my money is in my account I am ordering my new IMAC and IPOD touch!! I am soo excited! It seems unreal.

Oh I know I said that I was going to go dress shopping in may, but i think im going to move that even further back since I'm going to be losing weight...is that cutting it too close?!?! I know they can alter and stuff, but that makes me nervous. So i dunno!

My road bike is awesome and I love it. It was making weird sounds so i took into a bike shop and it is now fixed. Andrew had put it together and we (okay probably just me) were not sure it was done 100% percent! But i guess a pedal was loose and it is all fixed, but the bad news is is that it is suppose to rain the whole weekend! ugh!

Sorry no pictures...i haven't had time to take any...and my computer is CRAP!

Oh I hiked the Y this week for the first time ever! It was steep, but I think I did a good job for not being in the best shape. I did it with Chris, Steve, Andrew, and Jessica! It was Jessica's first time too! It was fun and a great exercise, so I'm glad that Chris came up with the idea!
