okay - well i ran my first day of c25k week 4 yesterday.... and i didn't die!! i sure felt like i might - but i didn't and it was good - because i did it! i had thoughts running through my brain... "...and i'm planning on running for a full 30 minutes?! how am i going to do that?!" i tried to keep those negative thoughts out of my brain - but it didn't work that well.
i've been doing pretty well with my eating these past two days... worst thing i've done has been eating some pretzels filled with PB... i won them in a gift basket from barnes and nobles... and they are SO GOOD. i also got 2 big bars of godiva chocolate.... but i'm waiting on those - for when i REALLY need some chocolate. hehe
well my orientation week is over with - tomorrow starts pre-planning! i get to meet everyone else in the school - and finally get to meet the teacher i'm team teaching with. kids start school on friday!!
and my DH will finally be here on thursday night - or friday - whenever he can finally leave... i'm so ready for him to be here.
i've been reading jodi picoult's - nineteen minutes all day today... i had a hard time getting into it yesterday - but now i just can't put it down. SO GOOD! i love all her books.
OH - I ALMOST FORGOT THE AMAZING NEWS!!! my MIL and i went to see mamma mia yesterday (SO GOOD - BY THE WAY) and we had about 2 hours to waste at the mall... well we were looking at the clearence items in belk - i was looking at skirts (because i am not allowed to wear capris to work) and she picked up this skirt for me to try on... it was a medium - and then we found a 12... now i didn't think the medium would fit for a second... and the 12 - i thought would be tight..... they both fit perfectly!! OMG! i'm wearing a 12!!!! i'm wearing a MEDIUM!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
okay - i'm done.... catch ya'll on the flipside!

Back to school already?
No! Its too early! But I'm glad you are having fun and are excited about it! It will be good to have DH there soon.
Way cool about the 12's and the medium!! Thats very exciting!! Oh, and didn't you just love Mama Mia??? I saw it on opening day and I've been singing Abba songs ever since!
That's so great about the 12 and mediums. How awesome! WTG on c25k. Just take it one day/one week at a time. Repeat a week if you need to. But you WILL make it!
Sounds like you're doing great with C25K - I know it doesn't seem like you'll ever be able to run xx amount of minutes straight, but just wait, it will happen and you will feel awesome!!
Oh yes...Nineteen Minutes was a great book. I love Jodi Picoult!
You're vanishing! hehe Awesome news!! Isnt it fun wearing smaller clothes???? You've accomplished so much...you worked for it and you got it!!
GJ on doing the C2k =D Dont worry..30 minutes might seem a lot at first but once you've done it, it isnt half bad or hard as it use to seem. The andrenaline gets pumping and it seems a lot harder to stop than to just keep going!!

Haven't seen Mama Mia...
...but now I want too. Will have to check that out!
I know you HAD to be excited about the clothes! I love how you have one success after another. You really are doing an AMAZING job. Keep it up!
School already? I know! Where DOES the time go? My ds will be a freshman this year and his first day is August 15!!! The freshmans go a day before everyone else to find there way around school. I think it's a great idea, but it's really hard to believe it's here already.
