So the new job is going GREAT. I'm only part time, which kind of sucks on the financial aspect, but my happiness is worth more than money. I love my coworkers, my boss, and I'm HAPPY. Today my schedule at work fell apart, so they called me off. Hooray! It's nice to have an unexpected day off.
So what have I been doing today? Oh, house-wifey things. Like going to the gym at 10:30 in the morning. And grocery shopping, and cooking, doing laundry, sewing stuff that I've been putting off. And of course
My weight loss journey is coming along nicely. I'm down to 162 (hooray!) and a total of 30" lost so far since August 2011. I'm planning on getting to 150 by our trip to Japan in October. Hoping all goes well! I'm using SparkPeople.com daily to keep track of calories, working out with my personal trainer every week, and getting cardio in at least 3-4 times a week. My trainer says my goal calories every day needs to be around 1200, and try to eliminate as much un-natural sugars as possible. It's hard to get rid of those extra sweets that I crave, but I'm doing my best.
Brian and I are taking Financial Peace University through the church right now. Currently we're at the end of week 2, starting week 3 tomorrow. I'm proud to say that we've completed baby step #1! Hooray! If you don't know what FPU is, I strongly recommend it. Even for the first couple weeks it's changed our outlook a little bit toward our spending habits.
Websites I'm currently obsessed with:
1) Pinterest
2) Chef - In - Training (TONS of great recipes!)
3) SkinnyTaste (Loads of great recipes that are perfect for my diet)
Until next time!
Lots of Love, Amber
