Just Don't Pass Out!

When your session with your personal trainer starts with the phrase "Just don't pass out!" you know you are about to have the time of your life!  Well - a time I did have!  In retrospect it wasn't bad.  But during the session, I really thought about puking just to get out of it.  But turns out that's what fat people do, and I don't wanna be fat people any more.  So today we did 3 rounds of really fun squats with weights, steps with weights, knee kicks and threw 4 lbs balls at each others faces while we galloped down the walkway.  Then we (and by we, I mean, fatso here, while skinny b*&^% counted) did some weights to trim down the back boobs (thank you Jesus!), some chest presses (to help put the girls back where they are supposed to be; Apparently, not where they currently are) and then we walked around the gym using weights to punch out in front of us.  Cathy should consider herself lucky that I didn't use one to punch her!   It was fun!  Like the yearly visit to the doctor fun!

2 MAJOR bonuses today!  I buttoned my shirt.  All. The. Way.  Now, I know what you're thinking.  Torey Anne - You go around with your shirt un-buttoned?  And the answer is... Yes.  Thanks to the wonderfulness that is tank tops!  I (for those of you who know me) have larger than average  hoobala's.  Therefore, I can buy shirts that fit everywhere else, but across the hoobies.  So I normally button up until the bust line and then display my gorgeous Old Navy tank tops (which I spend all day pulling up and down).  But Today - I buttoned it the whole way up!!!!!!  That's right.  No tank top or hoobies hanging out!  Big Stuff (well, littler stuff, but you get the drift). 

Awesome Bonus #2 - I get to have carbs!!!  So for dinner, I had whole wheat spaghetti.  I refuse to allow myself to have the good kind - the regular ole joe schmo white flour pasta.  So, YUM!  It made my day.  I can now have 2 servings of carbs a day and 1 serving of dairy.  Yippee!!  The real bonus here is that I went 15 days without carbs and dairy.  Super Proud of myself. 

Bonus # 3 (I know I said 2, but hang in there).  I have lost 11.5 lbs!! 

I am a little nervous about this phase because it is less scripted and structured, so it is going to be a little stressful trying to see what I can eat and what I can't eat. 

Current Status - Mega-Chubby (but 15% closer to meeting my goal)
