So I decided what this blog will be, a tale of my journey to "lose it",
I have been struggling with my weight for the past 3 years, putting it on, taking it off. It has truly been one of the hardest things I've ever had to deal with. Right now, I've put things into perspective, do I want to be thin and in shape or do I want to continue to feel uncomfortable in my own body.
I decided I do want to get in shape. I have no other choice. All the weight loss programs I've tried haven't worked for me because I need to do it in my own way.
I can't have someone sit there and tell me how to exercise or what to eat. I need to learn for myself and put it into action for myself.
I started doing couch 2 5k and I am on week 2, it's been hard. I keep telling myself it's going to get easier. I hope it does. I also started doing an "awesome abs April" I started it early because I wanted to get myself into a routine.
Mark has been really helpful, which is good. I also ordered a fat percentage monitor and measuring tape. This will help because the scale isn't always the best way to look at yourself.
So I'll keep updating this, maybe once a week to update on how I'm doing.
Till then Mi Amores!

Finally.
It's been quite awhile since I've updated, but I don't think anyone reads this, so I don't think anyone has missed me!
I'm trying to figure out which direction I want to take this blog.. I will update more when I have some inspiration!

Hubs Day.
Today I decided to post about my wonderful Husband.
We got married on August 20th 2011, and we've been together since January 11th 2008. He is really my favorite person and probably not for all the reasons you'd assume (although those do of course play a huge part he's he's gorgeous, smart, etc.)
But it's the things he does that just make him my other half.. he's happy all the time, and if he's not happy he very rarely takes it out on me. I mean, I'm the most emotional person I know, so when I am upset or mad at the world, I am just that mad at the world. If there's something going on and he thinks he's not going to be himself, he will let me know. I appreciate that about him so much, I've spent the last 4 years trying to figure out how he does it and I still don't know.
He is funny. Like really really funny. Sometimes he will say something and I just look at him like "where did you come up with that?!" inbetween laughing so hard I can't breathe and I sound like I'm 95 years old gasping for breath. His wit just amazes me. I love it.
He is one of the smartest people I know, seriously. This man can take apart a laptop and put it back together without hesitation. I don't know how he does it, but somehow he makes it work.
This man has the most ambition I've ever seen. When he tells me something will happen, I never doubt him. I know he will make it happen.
He just laughs and smiles at me when I decide to make crazy faces or do silly things such as this:
I have about a million other things about him that I absolutely adore, but these are some of the things that just made me fall in love with him. So, Husband if you read this, I adore you :-)

Today, Today..
Today hasn't been that great, I'm exhausted and I'm just ready to crash. However, I have way to much work to do, so I decided to take a mini break to blog.
I'm pretty excited for this weekend, I am meeting up with some of my AK11 girls! What is an AK11 you ask? Well it is NOT an assault rifle, although all of us together is pretty dangerous :) This is a group of women that I met when I was planning my wedding on The Knot. We all were getting married in August and just basically bonded. We started a facebook group and it's just continued since August, I've become very close to these girls and met a few of them. I feel like I know them. We post about everything..our husbands, trying to have babies, buying houses, kids anything and everything. I feel so close to these girls and I admire them for the struggles that they go through on a daily basis. They have helped me feel better when I am sad and prayed for me if there is something going on that I need prayers for. There are 101 of them and I must say, I thank God everyday that they are there. I truly would be lost without them. I have lost some friends over the past year over silly, trivial things and having my "Knotties" has gotten me through the hardest of times. So to my AK11's that actually read this: Much love and thank you!
Ok, now that I have posted about my amazing,beautiful AK's...back to work.

The beginning!
Well, I have started a few blogs in the past that never really got of their feet so I figured I'd try again! I don't know if anyone will ever read this, but hey it's something for me to do :)
Today has just been odd. It started off odd. It's continued to be odd and frustrating and I have a feeling it will end odd. I should have known this when I woke up and I mean WIDE awake at 3:43 in the morning.. I got out of bed at 4:10 and was at work by 5:30. I didn't know life existed at 4:40AM (when I left my house), but apparently it does. There were actually people on the road! Unreal. Who in their right mind (other then me, but then again if I was up at 3:43 I probably wasn't in my right mind) would be on the road that early? Well I guess truck drivers, with their big scary trucks. I don't like them. At all. I am always so paranoid that they are randomly going to swerve into my car, why? I have no clue. I just always picture this 16 wheeler swinging into my lane. Ok anyway, back to this day, this crazy insane day. Ever been on one of those teacup rides that keeps spinning and everything is a big blur? That has been my day. Every time and I'm not joking when I say EVERY time I have sat down to do something that I needed to do, the phone has rang or someone has had a question. My e-mail is up to 40 e-mails and I cleaned it out this morning at 10:45 so it was nice and pretty at zero. Now, don't get me wrong, I love my job and the craziness of it keeps me coming back for more, but it's just been weird stuff all day. I just have not gotten anything done that I thought I would have done, so that's frustrating. I will be here till late catching up on what I couldn't get done today, and then I'll be back..to do it all over again :)
Ok. well I hope you (If there are any of you out there) enjoyed reading my insanity..
