blue day

i feel blue today.

why?

i weighed myself on a scale today.

i had no idea how much weight i've gained because i didn't seem to think i gained anymore. i've been running lots lately - more than usual. eating habits are the same.

i feel blue.

wiiiii!!!

my good friend loulou had a wii party at her place last saturday and we were all pumped. people told me that you get a good workout playing wii, but i didn't believe them. tennis - all you do is wave your arm around. same with golf. and baseball. bowling is like bowling. BOXING, on the other hand, was a different story.

you get so into it that you don't realize you're punching like you're actually hitting your opponent.

now my back is really sore. but it's worth it.

:o)

off they go!

we sent off the first batch of invites, mostly people we work with and family in Canada.
we're still waiting for addresses for familiy outside of Canada, so that may a few more days. i also found a box to put jackie's bridesmaid dress so it's on its way to california. as funny as this sounds, it now feels like we're getting married with our invitiations being sent. the point of no return.

on a sad note, i just heard this morning that one of my uncles had a stroke and he's in the hospital trying to recover. he has to go through speech therapy as he can't complete a sentence anymore. sigh. praying for his speedy recovery.

get what and when??

so anthony left a voice message on my cell phone yesterday and of course, i didn't hear it till this morning because i never hear or check my cell phone. anyway, he said we can have our first workout tonight at 7pm.

what and when??

tonight? the hockey game is on tonight at 7:30! WTF
do I eat before or after our workout?
how long are we going to workout?
no wonder he's so fit - he doesn't care about NHL playoffs! he works out all the time regardless! we'll be the only two people at the gym tonight. WTF.

i think i'm regretting this already.

get fit!

friday night, jason and i went to his cousin's place to watch the hockey game and play poker. one of the "regulars" for poker night was there and she looked fantab. absolutely! she said she lost 20 pounds because of anthony (jason's cousin). she hired him to be her personal trainer and she lost 20 pounds since Jan. 7th. that's amazing!

so of course, i started reflecting on my own weight. the last 4 years i've put on some considerable extra poundage. 15 lbs to be exact. so instead of drowning my sorrows in a tub of ice cream and bag of cheetos, i decided to do something about it! i called anthony up yesterday and he's giving me a "family discount" - $100 for the whole shebang. he'll train me till i reach my goal, workout with me 2 times a week and set up a program and diet for me. that's not bad! :o)

Bye bye, fatty!

Hello, hottie!
