Uplifting Thoughts

Well, what can I say? I have just been busy! Geez, I want a day to get freakin organized. My car is a clutter of toys, workout gear, empty water bottles, coffee cups, baby wipes and it all is so frustrating.!!! Okay, I got that off my chest. Speaking of chest, I went to Victoria Secret to get fitted for a new braaaa. Yep, havent gotten a new one since I was preggo. (My baby Katie will be 11 months tomorrow!!!) I had some bras from before that just wasnt fitting right. She actually measured me a D? Hmmm... that's odd. I remember always being a B then preggo a C,,, but measured a D? Anyways, I also wanted something uplifting and bought a 50 dollar push up bra. Never in my life. But the girls reallly need a lift.
Next thing I did today was make an appt. with a vein specialist to get these horrid varicose veins GONE forever. So on the 14th (my 5 month bandiversary) I go for the complimentary appt with ultrasound to see how bad they are and get a quote for laser. I am so excited about this procedure because I haven't worn shorts since capris came out. Then discovered they aren't so attractive on a short person like me. So I want this done before summer.
Regarding my band. Yep it's still working. Just today I was trying to eat a chicken sand and it gave me a lot of trouble to the point of throwing it up. Tried again and still a no go. Had no problem with Cinco de Mayo-Carne Asada taco and rice. Go figure.
I dont know how much I weigh because my scale is in the closet. I feel free and don't really care. I know I am giving it my all when I workout. Last week I worked out 4 days. One of those days was a spin class that I swear I was dripping wet! This morning I ran 2 miles without any effort. I was sweaty but I can't believe how easy it was. Loving the exercise. Hating how hard it is but I know it's working. Not to mention the comments I get about my clothes or weight loss. Still wierd that this is really happening.
I just love reading everyone's blogs and wish that I could comment on everything people write about. Right now it's my bed time. I will have a new reader, welcome my bestest friend from high school who inspired me to get the band. I love you my friend and everytime we talk it's like I am that young girl from long ago. I miss you and we are forever best friends. Good night all!!!! Work hard and play harder:))))) (Note to self:::: Clean your car out tomorrow!!!!)

  1. Yes, Capris are bad for us shorties. But I still wear them on the weekends...sometimes. My go-to pair is now way to big, and I cant find any cute ones that are short enough for my stubby legs! you didnt say...do you boobs now look amazing in the new bra? A good measure and a good bra is money well spent!

  2. The exercise really keeps us going. I need a new bra too but guess I will wait for another ten pounds. Have you tried petite capris? They are made better for us short people.

  3. Hi there. I had to go buy a new bra recently too. My other's weren't doing their thing any more. I kept thinkgin I was down a cup because mine were way too big in the back and cup, but found out when you go down on the back the cups get smaller too. Anyway, New bras are nice huh? Good for you for putting your scale away. Mine is nagging at me. Not too much on the weight loss front for me. Frustrated!!! I need to check inches. Maybe that will make me feel better. Glad to hear all is going well. We will have to get together again over the summer if our schedules work out. Talk to you later.
