The Start of a Pretty Good Day

I knew it was going to be a good day today when I looked up the forecast and saw that it was going to be in the 80's for the next 10 days. In honor of warmer, more delicious Arizona weather, I shaved my legs (Shocker!), pulled out a pair of shorts, and slipped my feet into some flip flops, even though I've been wearing flip flops and sandals through the entire winter. Still, my little tootsies like to be free.

I've been wearing pants for a few months, and it has been killing me. I hate wearing pants. My legs need to breathe! It's time, ladies and gentlemen, to bust out my summer clothes. Sadly, most of them won't fit, I'm sure, because of my weight gain after getting married, but I'm working on that, too.

And that's another thing that made today a good day. As you can see from my little weight loss ticker up above, I've now lost 1.6 pounds. It's not much, but it's a start! I'm so proud of myself for getting up before work each day this week and working out. It looks like it will pay off. I can't wait until I can lose the 15 pounds I gained after getting married.

Also, Jose and I have wedding festivities this Friday, all day. That means, 4-day work week for me!

And to top it all off, Jose woke up early and made me a delicious breakfast this morning.


I'm happy. I'm lovin' life.
