Weekly Update

This has been a great week for me. I passed a pulmonary exam required for my position at work. I really didn’t think I was going to pass. I needed a 70% and got a 74%. I’ll take it. I also found out that I am eligible to graduate with my Associates of Applied Science in Occupational Safety this semester. This will be my third associate’s degree.  I should probably start working on my masters at some point. I’m running out of classes to take at San Juan. I did really well for hitting my goals this week. I finished the book One for the Money. It was a good easy read. Everyone I know has read it and my mom wanted to go watch it at the movies so I figure I could read it before we watched the movie.  This week I’m planning on picking up my workout routine. I have been doing really well on staying within my daily caloric intake but I have not been staying consistent with my workouts.  I am really enjoying yoga and spin classes every Tuesday and Thursday evening. However, twice a week is just not cutting it for me. I am feeling better and better all the time and have a lot more energy than I use to. I still have some fears that if I try to hard I will have set backs but at the same time I don’t want my fear to become an excuse.

Although this is Superbowl Sunday, I’m not really feeling it since the Packers didn’t make it this year. I’m more wrapped up in the WM Phoenix Open. I love this tournament. I am sad that once again, we weren’t able to attend. I love going and seeing all my favorite athletes, the crowd on hole 16, and feeling the warm sun. I’m hoping that next year we will be able to make it happen.

I finally replaced my ripped up pants with new ones. They are a size bigger than the pants I had before but at the same time, they are still a size smaller than what I was wearing a year ago. These pants are fairly loose and probably can’t be worn for much longer. I also got my hair done this week. I cut and colored it. I needed a bit of a change.

Below is my updated metrics. I have only lost a pound but I have lost 3 inches. I can’t complain about that. I look forward to seeing what this Thursday’s check-in has in store for me.
