Hey everyone! I know it’s been quite some time. I’ve been so busy – I finally got to go home for Christmas for the first time in two years to see my parents. The video is hilarious. But I’ve been busy every weekday from 7:00 am to 3:00pm because…
I got a full-time job, with benefits, at one of the top gyms in my region!
I am so pumped and psyched out about it. It’s a great environment, with great supervisors and a freaking great customer base. The place really feels like a community. Everyone is so supportive of me and my aspirations to grow. I can’t ask for a better place to work, learn, and grow, and I hope that I’m able to do my best to contribute back to the company and to prove to them what they already know – that I’m the best choice for the job. I’m learning that I need to mature some more, to match my abilities, and that I need to stop quitting.
I’m going to classes in the evening full-time nearby, so pray that I don’t explode into a bunch of Tearyne confetti. The big bonus about this job is that, of course, I get a free membership to the gym (and some discounts to go with it), and since I’m at the gym every day, I have no excuse not to get into the gym.
BALLER!
So, my goal is to lose at least 4 pounds a week every week until April 19, 2011 (13 weeks from now). I ate really poorly over the holidays, and I’m now 194.4 lbs. If I follow this plan, I’ll lose 52 pounds — putting me down to 142 pounds. That’s a pretty steep decline, but I’m also hoping to put on muscle. My plan is to incorporate at least 30 minutes of cardio 4 times a week and maybe, maybe some weights, if I’m lucky (I’ve got classes that start at 5:30 on my burner…).
I’m redoing the about section and refining what this blog is about in a bit here. Thanks for reading and catching up with my fit life; hope to be writing for you guys again soon here.
