Progress Update – 12 weeks out!!!

February 28, 2010 competition February 28, 2010

February 27, 2010 Well, it’s been quite a month of soul searching to decide what I wanted to do and I’ve decided! I have such a sense of peace about my decision! Here’s a brief synopsis of my dilemma. My trainer and I didn’t really click from the start but I trusted his philosophy so I went with it. Turns out we really didn’t mesh well. Also, turns out he was not willing to get me to my goals in time for my upcoming show. He wanted me to continue to cut slowly, however long it took, and not set a date. I needed a date to get psyched about this and dedicate to it. I was feeling hopeless with no end in sight and ...

Photography

February 23, 2010 photography February 23, 2010

I’ve found a new hobby, my friends!!! I know, in all my free time, I’ve discovered a new hobby that I LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! I’ve fallen in love with photography but having a hard time finding time to learn and play with it! My dear hubby got me my first dSLR camera for Christmas this year as a HUGE surprise and I am just loving it. He took some fun pictures of me with my new hobby while I was taking pictures of Renee and Andy on their visit. He’s the best husband! Here are a few he took of me, in action…. Having a great time…can you tell??….

Shin splints & New Shoes!

February 23, 2010 fitness gear February 23, 2010

Shin splints….boo. That’s what I get for upping my cardio drastically (not gradually) and wearing old shoes. I won’t even tell you how old my shoes are. They were still comfortable, but appears they were not doing the job. So, I got new shoes today (see pic below) and even though I think they’re ugly, BOY ARE THEY COMFY!!! They have a wide base so they help to stabilize my supination (maybe?) from my extremely high arch. They are the Brooks Glycerin 8. I usually wear Lynco L400 arch supports (and have some still) but decided (at the recommendation from the guy at Sports Spectrum) to wait and see if I like the shoes without rather than preemptivley buying $52 inserts if I don’t need ...
