excuse my lack of posting but with all of this snow on the ground, i thought that maybe we had gone back in time to DECEMBER and i didn't even have a blog back then!
it is pretty gross outside. snow, in may. these are the days where i just want to cuddle under a blanket with some tea and arrowroot cookies. AND.... i'm sick. just a little sick. but i NEVER get sick (it has been more than 3 years). so when i am sick, i am whiny.
nothing too extraordinary to report though. my eating has been mediocre. i have decided to give points-counting a bit of a break, and have been trying to just eat heathy foods in normal portions. *gasp* a shocking concept, i know! it is going okay, except for the belly full of whole wheat pasta and mozza i have going on right now. it is comfort food, cut me some slack.
i have been seriously pondering (instead of only half-assedly pondering) joining a gym. i have spent the last month looking into Aquafit classes (i realllllly want to do this), but everything just seems to expensive and too far away from my house for me to actually do it. if it isn't convenient, i ain't going.
but low and behold, C just found out from his coworker, that the Gold's gym that is less than 10 minutes from my house has a pool AND Aquafit classes!! hurrayyy!! this is a brand new 32,000 sqft facility with the largest cardio area in Western Canada. can you say, yes please? this is a full service gym, and i think it might be reasonably priced. i have even found some folks on kijiji looking to transfer memberships out that are even cheaper than what they are charging now. so i think we shall look into this. a treadmill, a pool, and a tanning facility (yes i know it is bad for me, but i love it), that's all i need. i will let you know how this pans out.
as the one year anniversary of my engagement rapidly approaches, i am thinking it is time to try on some wedding dresses. i thought by this time i would be down 80lbs and stoked to go try some dresses on, but instead, being down only 20 - it is not something i am looking forward to. on a wedding forum i frequent, someone said that i shouldn't wait until i have lost the weight to try on dresses, but to try on the dresses now, in hopes that THAT will make me want to lose weight. that, or make me ragingly homocidal, i guess. i will give it a go.
i am so, fully, completely, ridiculously excited that camping season is almost upon us. the long weekend is only 17 sleeps away and i am raring to go! i have spent the last couple of days researching new campgrounds to check out and that has made me even more excited. sadly, the majority of them are either fully booked, or have an alcohol ban in place for every single long weekend. c'mon now, i am a responsible, mature, semi-alcoholic and i like to drink boxed wine around the campfire. don't penalize me for that!
so...we are going into the back country and are REALLY roughing it. no flush toilets, no showers. just us, the mountains, the river, and a hole in the ground. BRING IT ON! we are going to be dirty. we are going to be cold. but we will have a blast, i'm sure. i am just hoping it doesn't snow like the last two times we went camping. please mother nature - work with us here.
