Born to Shimmer

  1. I’m baaaaackk!

    Hey everyone!  Look who’s back!

  2. DUDE

    I am so bad at tumblrin’ lately.  I promise to make more of an effort in a few weeks when I have more time.  Miss you all <3

  3. Sore sore sore.

    My trainer is trying to teach me a lesson about getting my mind to SHUT UP and stop making my workouts harder on myself.  My teaching me that lesson - I can barely walk.  Our workout on Tuesday was the most intense and I was sure I was going to die.

    I did get new running shoes (Nike Pegasus) and plan to break them in tomorrow - that is - if I can move! lol

    I ran a mile for the first time in my life 2 weeks ago - and while I thought the shin splints were going to kill me - I did it!  A little victory for little ol me.  It’s something - right?

  4. Still Alive

    Hey guys - it’s been 192384729374 days since I last posted and I wanted you to know I haven’t forgotten about you all!  Thank you all for the messages of concern.

    Life just got so busy and it’s easy to let that cause me to slack in working out and eating right.

    I’ll post more later but I miss you all and thank you for the notes!

    Update soon!

    Hope you are well!

  5. Spin Me Right Round…

    Guys - I did it!

    I took a spinning class last night!  I wanted to quit 4 minutes into it but kept going.  The class was an hour long and tho I didn’t “up” the resistance too much - I did my best!

    But today, I’m walking like I went horsebackriding for hours yesterday.

    Does your butt ever get used to those little seats?

  6. I’m Back! Miss me?

    I’m back from my WEEK LONG vacation to Las Vegas.

    I had a very very good time with my boyfriend, my mom, and our friends.  It was a very long week but we were able to go see Cirque’s Love (my 2nd time seeing it) and Garth Brooks.

    I didn’t eat so well while I was there but we walked an average of 16k steps a day.  Some days we walked until we couldn’t feel our feet anymore.

    I did come back to see the Monthly Miles message board has been hijacked by spammers - that’s going to be fun clean up. lol

    Hope you all are doing well.  I’ve got tons of posts to catch up on.

  7. Encourage Me?

    Hey guys - after learning from my trainer yesterday that I haven’t lost ANY inches in a month, I had a nervous breakdown.  I cried myself to sleep.

    And today, I ask for encouraging words from you all.  You all inspire me so much and I need to hear good thoughts.

  8. Weigh In Wednesday - Week 1
