What does victory feel like? It feels like this wet t-shirt that I refuse to take off because I R-O-C-K-E-D it tonight at the gym. I am soaking in my victory.
The gym was super packed tonight with all the new year's resolution people...they eventually fade out by around the end of this month (hopefully) so when I arrived instead of running I got on the elliptical and did a half hour of cardio. But at the end of that half hour I was still feeling pretty good and there was an open treadmill so I hopped on for the last remaining 15 minutes of my cardio workout. Since I was already warmed up, I was able to jump on and immediately begin running. And you know what? I ran 1-mile in 10 minutes and 15 seconds! I was sweating like a hog but I was so happy that as I cheered and congratulated myself on my accomplishment I could not be bothered by the wayward glances I was receiving from the people on either side of me. I didn't care, I was celebrating. And they were right...I am a weirdo.
Now on to another topic I would love to discuss about the gym...girls who show up wearing practically nothing. Just know, I think they look stupid. There is this girl in there that wears these legging type pants with a sports bra for her top every time I see her in there. Now, I understand trying to look cute or "fashion-forward" but dressing in a manner to attract all the wrong kind of attention is just ridiculous. Furthermore, let me say this...if anybody reading this happens to dress in such a way...I apologize if I've offended you but do know, that I think you look retarded. It's so not necessary. Trust me, you are still the envy of every fat girl in there without having to dress like your easy-skeezy. The leggings aren't so bad, just throw on a t-shirt for crying out loud. You'll still get all the attention you desire. This girl at the gym, I will give her this, her body is rockin' but I just think she would look 10x better if she didn't look like such a skank. Maybe it's the way she bends over when she's lifting her weights in the "big boy" area(as I call it)...You know, the free-weight area. All that is over there are testosterone-fueled, hormone raging horn balls.
I don't know, maybe I'm just jealous but I really think it's just how stupid she looks to me. It's okay though, because I may be fat, but I've lost 4 of the 8 lbs. I gained. So I don't know how jealous I am right now. I'm actually feeling pretty good. It must be the endorphins.

WHEW!!! I'll say!!! I was sitting on the edge of my seat reading your PUMPED up story of the night!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! I'm SO SO JEALOUS! I woke up all excited too. I had my 85 min work out picked out for the am, but lo and behold. Gerardo is sitting at the table WORKING! I'm like....You gonna work here today? In my sweetest voice. He says, "Yeah...I think I'll work at home today." I tried really hard not to look disappointed, but DANG! I was! I really wanted ROCK like you today! Oh well...tomorrows another day! LOVE YOU LIZ!
YOU LOOKED GREAT at the Shower! I thought you looked CHIC and AWESOME> I don't know what y ou're talking about with the weight! I'm still 150, but I went from 33/34 waist to 30. So...I'm thinking muscle is heavieer because when I last wore size 30 Levi's I was 125/130. So to be 150 and wearing that size makes me wonder. I can't figure it out, but I do feel good.
You did an INCREDIBLE job with the Shower! You are really, really a wonderful human being. So generous and loving! YOU GO GIRL!!!!
That's awesome Liz! I hope you continue to rock it.
Hi Liz!
It was so good to see you on Saturday!
Congratulations on keeping your commitment to going to the gym--you look wonderful, by the way.
Hey, GREAT JOB! It's so awesome that you push yourself so hard.
You had it totally right when you said "dressing in a manner to attract all the wrong kind of attention is just ridiculous." I think that girls don't realize that the reason that they keep finding jerks is that they are sending out signals that they want that type of guy!
