edited September 18 in Motivation and Support
I just got a call from my husband. We got our hotel reservations for Street Vibrations in September. We are staying in Carson City, NV.
I want to lose 50 pounds by then. I am determined to wear leather:glasses: We are going for 3 nights and 4 days. I want to sit on the back of the Harley without a jellyroll.
I am going to start on Monday. Today is a day to enjoy. I am going to increase my cardio by 1/2 hour and my weight training by adding 2 more reps in to each exercise. (will only be working lower body until I get doc ok). I am also going to start running. I had some great advise from 2 very nice people here. They are helping me get ready for the marathon I am doing in November. They got be pointed in the right direction.
I am going to try to find the outfit that I will buy if I hit my goal and post it.
I am so psyched right now. I am ready for this.
Wish me luck.
I will do this safe and healthy and I will succeed.:flowerforyou:

    I will add one more to this. When I reach this goal, I am getting a back piece done. Hopefully in time for the trip. That will be one of my rewards:drinker:

    I had a message asking about Street Vibrations. It is a BLAST!! We stay in Carson City, NV-It is spread out through Carson City, Virgina City, and Reno, NV. Reno can get a little crazy at night. Clubs will reserves all hotel rooms in one hotel and hang their banners showing the club name. People go day and night. You see Thousands of motorcycles. It is truly amazing. I think it is a rush. Nothing sexier than tattoos, Harley's and my hubby in chaps and a bandanna. I will put a couple of pictures in my profile of trips past.
    Here is a site that talks more about it if you would like to check it out.
