It's B time!

I'm just hours away from leaving to a land far far away, where the sand is white, the ocean is turquoise and the frozen strawberry daiquiris are bottomless! My bags are packed, got my pedicure and I've been spray tanned (insert smiley emoticon here). This mama is ready to hit the beach! These last few days, I've been reminiscing about the last few weeks; where I was physically and where I am mentally today. I feel stronger. I went from working out hard one day and then not being able to walk normal for a few days... To now... Where I can run 2 miles on the treadmill and still have energy to burn after. Yes, I feel strong. Last week, I ran 8 miles in total. I hardly ever run. But over the last few weeks I've developed this insane stamina and energy. It's crazy what a little commitment will do for you. I finally weighed myself this week. I was really dreading it. I don't know why. But I made it on the scale and what do you know. I didn't gain or lose a pound. Those three numbers made me so happy! This experience made me realize that unless you are extremely overweight, numbers are just numbers. Even if I were 5 or 10 pounds heavier, I'd still feel great. I build up my 'fitness' confidence over the last few weeks and have a positive outlook in life. Now it's 'B' time! Bahama Mamas, Bikinis and Beach time! This week, I missed my training session and didn't go to the gym for 2 days. But I had a great reason. I was present at the birth of my lovely little niece. Her name is Isabella Maria and she is as beautiful as her name. My sister, Marina, inspires me every day. She is so strong and hard working and is going to be a wonderful mama. I've decided to continue my blogs but not as personal. I will post some delicious healthy recipes, maybe some fitness tips and anything fitness related. My trainer also agreed to do some video blogs with me. We'll see what we can come up with! In the meantime, enjoy your weekend. I know I will!
