I have created multiple things to motivate me to lose weight. I have three the first is my husband's 30th birthday is approaching and I want to him (okay me) to be proud to have me standing next to him. Secretly I want people to think how did he get her because she's so hot...lol. The next is we are going on vacation at the end of August for our first anniversary and I want to look hot. Better than I looked at the wedding. And finally my favorite is that I have begun to dance at church and it's really taxing, so I have to build up my stamina and strength. This means the by product of that is I will lose weight.

I think I am most excited about the last. Because I've been waiting to do this for so long. I use to dance at my church when I was in college and I loved it. There we called it Praise dancing. It's a whole new ball game now because they are very serious about technique at my current church and I want to get it. The performances will be in front of huge congregations. This makes me a bit nervous, but when I hear gospel music I want to move and in a group choreographed I think I will feel less nervous.

I'm currently in training, so this means I'm not 100% in but I'm going to try my hardest. My husband is really proud of me for trying out for something that I really want to do. I love that man. I honestly think I could not look bad in his eyes. That is why anything I say I want to do for him is really for me because he thinks I'm fine just the way I am.

Sometimes I think that this is trouble because I figure why work hard when I already have someone who loves me for me. But then I know if I don't feel good then it doesn't matter what he feels.

I currently have been feeling the bug that I want to hit the gym and hard, but I am having trouble with trying to determine what it is that I want to do. I have training sessions left that I don't want to use right now. I know I still have to call him, but then I don't want to because he'll say that I need to come in anyway. Which to me is wasting the sessions if I haven't been consistent. The starting and stopping.

I have done what I do best, spend money to get me motivated. I purchased an out fit to take progress pictures. I think I will take my start pictures tonight. I don't know if I'll post them just yet, but we'll see.

Have a blessed day everyone!
