Anniversary

I won my Diet Bet! I was really excited because I really busted my ass that last week. I used my winnings to buy a new pair of shoes for work this summer. I also joined another one for this month and I think Todd is going to do it too.

I finally started going to the YMCA. I actually biked for 40 minutes last night. I was super impressed with myself. The Y hardly has anyone there on a Saturday night. My plan was to watch something on Hulu Plus so I don't get bored but I could not figure how to connect to their WiFI and the 3G had trouble loading. I am working my way so I can take spin classes. I am going to one this Friday but I have a feeling I am going to make a fool of myself. I am so out of shape, it is embarrassing.

I was really feeling good about the weight I have lost in March and then I decided to clean out and organize my closet. I started trying on pants that I thought would fit and they are still too tight. I can get them on but my stomach prevents me from buttoning them. I started getting a little upset about it so I just quit trying on clothes. The old me would have said "screw it" and gone off course. I don't want my emotions to get in the way of losing weight. I know I have a long road ahead of me and it will take time to lose the weight. I just can't get discouraged.

Today is my 12th anniversary. I cannot believe I have been married this long. Since I got married at 22, I hardly remember what it is like to not be married. Luckily I married someone who puts up with my crazy ideas. Todd and I are going out to dinner tonight. We have never paid someone to babysit and I don't know the last time we went out by ourselves. We are going to get sushi so that won't ruin my diet. I already have coconut milk ice cream in the fridge if I want dessert. The no dairy thing really prevents me from eating a lot of desserts. It stinks but my butt will thank me later.
