I need a life turnaround!

I seriously need a eating-living-lifestyle makeover. It really is nooot okay the way things are going! I've been wearing a pedometer at work (actually its my phone..which is pretty cool, thank you Samsung) and this last week each day I worked I walked between 12000-19000 steps which equals out to 7-9 miles!! Thats insane, no wonder my feet and legs have been killing me. I went from working 4-6 hours a day, not walking as far during the day to........12 hours 3 days a week and running pretty much alll of those hours! Anyway, so that is one change-- but it seems that my brain says Hey you've been working hard, you deserve a cookie :).. That is totally not helping me fit into my clothes. And I have to say retail therapy is not as enjoyable when I don't fit into the super cute clothes I'm trying on. So today after failing at retail therapy (which is probably a better thing for my wallet..) I went to the gym and did a couple miles on the elliptical and a Zumba class. I forgot how much I like Zumba. I've definitely gotten rusty and I look ridiculous trying to do all the steps but its a good workout and since I now have a gym I'm excited to get back into it. Here's to healthier eating (Asparagus & tilapia for dinner tonight), and getting active. Wish me luck!

  1. Omg, I forgot until this very moment that you'd updated the blog!! A fun surprise=)

    LOL at, "hey you've been working hard, have a cookie!" Hahaha, isn't that the truth, and really it should be, "hey you've been working hard, have some awesome nutritional fuel in the form of something not as tasty as a cookie." Ha!

    I'm so proud of you for being brave enough to look foolish in Zumba. I'm just not there yet. Til then i'll admire you=) xo
