Yay! I finally got motivated and I joined a gym. I've been twice this week already, and my goal is to work out at least 4 times a week. That seems pretty good for weight loss, right? The only thing is, I don't have the stamina to work out for very long! :( I ran two miles in twenty minutes on Monday but when I was done, I felt so weak and sick to my stomach that I thought I was going to vomit. I'm hoping that the more I push myself, the more likely that feeling will go away!
Last night, I had an easier workout of riding a bike machine for 6 miles and then lifting weights, so I spent a total of about thirty minutes working out. Is that bad? I don't even know anymore. When I was in high school, I'd have to work out for three hours, five days a week because I was on the soccer team. I don't have that much time to dedicate to working out! I hope I can still lose weight though. I want to look great in my wedding dress :D

After my first workout. Don't I look so thrilled?
Anyway, that's what's new in my life these days. OH WAIT! I forgot to mention that I got a second job, and it's in special education!! It's so amazing and I love it! It can be pretty difficult some times, but I don't mind at all. I started on the 5th and I'm getting a lot of great, hands on experience with kids and learning how to handle certain disability-related behavior issues. I am very grateful for this job!
Have a great rest of the week :)
