How being overweight ages you; My baby has rims and working

Thank you so much for love on the picture blog! You guys are amazing. I would continue to hide those pictures forever but you know what, it’s all about progression right? It’s true though (thank you ladies) I used to be compared to my mom when I was heavier. People thought I was older and never got carded. That was throughout my 20’s. As soon as the weight started dropping I got carded all the time. Especially at the casino. So if there’s any perks to losing weight the healthy way is that it is a FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH. :)

I have to tell you I’m so proud of my Rod. He worked a deal with his friend/boss and got some bomb rims and tires for the Lexus. He’s looking into getting a rebuilt engine and putting it in himself - from Japan of course. Get this - he’s paying for all of it! I’m so happy! I told him, the car is his responsibility now because it’s paid off and needs a lot of TLC. As long as he pays for it he can do what he wants. Then it’s all about body work and paint job. That car will look like brand spankin’ new. The next part - HE BETTER GET ME ANOTHER CAR! :) So we decided to budget ourselves for the next couple of months. No spending whatsoever unless it’s food and gas. We hope to get enough money together to get a decent car for me for work. Then we are working on saving for a down payment on my first new car. That’s the plan. He’s good with cars. My own backyard mechanic. The rims are hot! And new tires too! OH the car is loving the love. :)

I forgot my shoes at home! The other one is in the other car. So no work time walking for me. I can’t wait to get to the gym and get a good workout on. I know I have a sub for kickboxing still. But Pilates - will be the bomb!!!! :) Dang, I look forward to my workouts all day. Gives me goosebumps. I love to sweat. Why not right? It’s the best way to get a natural high! :) I’m still very sore from all the tri-cep push-ups we did in yoga. It was I believe 100 or so and they were killer. Teaches me NOT to skip Nygel’s power yoga classes.

    My ex once told me I looked like I was 27 years old, and had he met me on the streets he would have thought I was older :(
    That was when I was almost 300 pounds. Now that I lost weight? He says I look 22…lol
    I am going to have to learn these tricep push-ups! lol anything to fix my arms…
