#1 : Okay, might be a lil' silly, but as I'm walking home from the gym I stop to answer a text (it was raining and couldn't text and hold umbrella at the same time) and this random guy approaches me and asks if I'm a personal trainer. My first reaction was to just dismiss it as only a pick up line/ice breaker, but after discussing the interaction with a friend, my first thought is probably true, BUT he wouldn't have used THAT line if it didn't "visually" have some truth to it, right???

#2: I've basically been living in scrubs (I'm a nurse), gym clothes, tights, and dresses lately... well I went to put on my FAVORITE skinny jeans and they were NOT SO SKINNY!!! (Okay, this one might make me a little sad at the same time, since I have "small calves" in comparison to the rest of my legs, so it is hard to find skinny jeans that don't just look like straight leg or boot cut on me, lol).

#3: ALL of my coworkers are OBSESSED with how I look lately and want to know what I'm doing... especially since they still see me eat constantly at work (I work night shift). I've just told them that I'm mixing in more healthy food with my junk food, and almost solely drink water, instead of the apple juice and orange juice that I used to covet.

All in all I've "only" lost about 10 lbs, but my goal isn't to really lose weight here, but to tone up, which I think I'm doing. Could I do better (especially with my eating habits), YES!!! But I think this is the best route for me, so I can stick with it. To anyone who has read this far, thanks for taking the time, and thanks for the support. :flowerforyou:

    Three good ones for sure!
    You should have said Yes to the personal trainer question; you could have picked up a side job!

    Awwwwww, thanks!!! I might just do that. I just have to kick my own butt into gear a lil' more with eating habits (can't be a hypocrite, right???). :wink:
