Losing It

Someone mentioned that I should discuss losing the baby weight. Sure. The pictures above were taken nearly a year apart. First off I gained a shit ton of weight when I was preg. I think it was close to 60 lbs. Uh, yea. Anyway after baby I had my work cut out for me. A few things, I am short, I hate exercise (surprise), and I love food. You feel me? Well I carried a bit of the weight around for about a year then this past February I was looking at summer coming and decided I had to do something, something drastic. I had about 15 lbs I needed to take off. I threw myself into spinning. Spinning is hell but it works! You go into the class for 45 min of pure agony and thats it! No need to stick around the gym for anything else. You don't have to think about anything, just drag your ass into that class 3 times a week for a couple months and voila! Thats it. Plain and simple. I was converted for a while there. I stopped spinning as soon as summer rolled around but this entire summer I've felt like myself again. It was totally worth it. My tummy is still a little jacked but for the most part I regained my confidence and even managed to get into a bikini. I def still have some work to do but I'm in hardcore lazy summer mode now, who the hell wants to be in the gym when its 85 degrees out. I'm happy to fit into my old clothes and feel good about myself. So Spinning is the secret. Boom!

Tonight Im Gonna Party Like It's 1999!!

Tonight I'm excited to go out with the girls. Dad will be home on the night watch. We're sending off our Editor-In-Chief of 2 years tonight. The times when I go out seem to be less and less..booo. So, tonight I will get cute, drink a bunch of Vodka Tonics and smoke a ton of ciggies. I'll try my best to drink a glass of water before bed and down a couple of aspirin. In the morning I will wake up at 7:30 to fritz crying. I'll get up and do the morning routine. Tonight there will be a fine line between "fun" and "overboard" like their always is. Because, if I do go "overboard" I will hate myself in the morning when Im giving Fritz breakfast, playing and listening to him tantrum. Therefore I may not party like it's 1999 but more like what it is 2000 and fucking 8. I cannot sleep in. I have to take a call at 11am with a very big advertiser. I cannot be brain dead tomorrow. I must show a tiny bit of restraint and not go "overboard". Wish me luck darlings. Ill let you know how it goes...

Cocomo

Guess what? Im going on vacation tomorrow. Just me and my boo. This is a seriously necessary endeavor. For the next 4 days we will be on a fucking island...Yea, with maybe a few people around. If it rains, I don't care. If it's sunny, great. I'll be reading, drinking, eating and sleeping. Im taking it back to human necessities. Bye, bye internets, bye, bye iPhone, Later Blogging, Magazine, what? See you Monday civilization. Ok It's possible if there is internet I will be posting 100 Days Of Outfits! See ya!
