and so it begins

I always think that i want to start a blog because i have a lot of thoughts...then when it actually comes to starting one i have suddenly run out of thoughts. but not this time!
I dont want to get on peoples nerves by constantly posting facebook status changes (whilst hilarious), so this will be my outlet from now on because i do have a lot of thoughts going on in my head and writing them on here will be a great outlet.

to start, i went to the gym this morning and i am currently really really sore. although im not sure if that soreness is from the gym or from running around at work in my heels either way- sore is sore.

i am currently at work sitting and waiting for...ring... alright usually i just sit and wait but sometimes it does actually ring. i like this job. i enjoy the people that i work with and its a pretty fun atmosphere when i actually do get to interact with them- but i do spend a lot of time reading my nook behind my desk by myself. i try to get up and walk around whenever i can, it burns more calories and when i'm wearing my heels i can practice my model walk so that's alway fun.

i truly dont believe that anyone will ever read this and that gives me comfort and freedom. maybe my mom will read this one day if she's bored?

i'm moving into the girls household sometime this week. i'm very scared and excited at the same time. it is for sure going to be life changing and challenging. it will help me build relationships and i'll be able to spend more time with everybody because i'll be closer... including 10 miles closer to my job which is good.

i hate laundry, hate it! and along with that, i dont really like going to the gym that much. i wake up at 430 every morning and grab my gym bag and leave. half asleep i drive 45 minutes to the gym by lax, sit in my car for about 10 minutes and try to convince myself to walk into the gym.  after this i go in and work out.august to december i lost 26 lbs-i havent lost any weight since january- i keep going back and forth within the same 5 lbs and its getting really really annoying. soo ive decided i am not trying to lose weight anymore, instead i am going to run a marathon. in my efforts to train for said marathon i hope to lose weight. i have a lot of gym knowledge being that i have done a lot of diet and workout plans...however i never actually stick with them long enough to even get to a plateau, but im pretty sure that is exactly what this is. so i've heard this is the point where you need to change things up- hence marathon plan.

i have had this new job for a month now and with the new job has come a regular eating schedule, regular gym visits and i drink more water before 8 am than i used to drink in an entire day...i think im doing a pretty good job... but totally discouraged, until this morning when i put on my skinny jeans and they were a little lose around the waist :)))

when i started my very exciting marathon training,  i bought a book, but in order to use the book, you need to have 3 miles in 30 min or less...i soo do not have that so i ran* (walk/jogged) 3 miles just to see where i was- 43:10 i expected about 45 min so that was right around there and pretty good considering i never run and i hate running just about as much as i hate laundry. so the next day i pushed myself a little more and did 39:36 pretty proud of myself...then i skipped the gym, but here it is tuesday and im back on track- i can totally do this whole running thing. and i think i might even be liking it. not the running itself but the whole goal setting and accomplishing thing.
