Happy New Year

Welcome 2009

2009 came with a smooth transition. I was asleep by 10:30 and then bam, it was a new year. Jonathan had a great year end, in fact December was one of his best months ever. I hope that is a sign that the economy may be turning around.

The diet has been going very well. I find managing my caloric intake very easy with my bodybugg. I typically have a calorie deficiency of 1000 or more a day. So I am hoping to loose around 2 - 3 pounds this week. Here comes my ring!! I was starving the first couple of days but I am getting used to things now. Maybe my body has started eating itself! We will see as of Thursday.

I have been reading Brian and Amy's blog. It seems like they are having lots of fun in Australia. I still can't believe they went skydiving! Skype has been very helpful as well. We have been able to talk a lot for free and even see each other through our webcam.

Jonathan has been Mr. Chef since I started my diet. We have been eating at home mostly because I learned very quickly just how bad eating out is! Even when you think you are eating healthy it is still FULL of calories. Subway is about the only thing I am willing to eat since they post the calorie count for their food on their website. That helps a lot. But I am taking full advantage of his cooking skills and he even packs me a lunch!

My classes at the natatorium has been going very well. I did two hour and half spinning classes this weekend. One was Saturday and then I did one this evening. I thought I was going to die tonight! My butt and legs hurt soooo bad. I was going to spin again tomorrow but I think yoga is the route to take. I really need to stretch out my body. My goal is to take around 2 classes a day. I burn lots of calories and they are really fun.

I got beat up by another old woman the other day at work. In fact she ripped my new necklace right off my neck. My BFF Laura had bought me the new Jane Semour (sp?) necklace. I am so bummed I can't wear it now until I get a new chain.

Well I better start to relax if I plan to make it sleep early so I can get up for Cardio Blast.

Happy New Year Everyone!!
