Hello fellow bb’ers!

 Man, have I been out of the loop!  I think it’s been about 3 weeks since I’ve logged on and kept up consistently with you all.  I miss bb.com when I am away, but lately it’s been hard to stop by as much as I have in the past.  So, here are the updates…

 The scale is finally starting to come down a bit..141 lbs.  The inches are steadily dropping in all the right places.  I am content with my progress, but I want more.  My lower body has always been stubborn, so I’m experimenting with different training techniques to get better results.  My upper body continues to get stronger, and more defined.  I’m loving that.  Now, if only the legs would catch up.  Yesterday, I moved to another gym with more equipment….and men!!!!  Whenever you have men in a gym, you can bet the equipment you need is there!  Because I teach at an all ladies facility, I had been working out there, too.  I knew sooner or later I would need more than what they had to offer.  And now I’m in a place that challenges me. Yesterday I did upper body, and today I did lower body.  Needless to say, I’m a bit sore, but nothing out of the ordinary.  I’ve decided to pick up my cardio as well.  I had been doing 3 times per week, and now I’m trying five HIIT sessions a week.  This will hopefully help shave off some body fat.  I had a birthday in July, so I splured big time the entire weekend.  Things are definitely back on track now.  I can’t stand to eat the wrong things for too long.  The new training job is WONDERFUL!!!!  It feels good to finally be paid what you’re worth! (you trainers know what I’m talking about) The clients are great, and they keep me on my toes.  I love it, but it’s tiring.  I’m not used to training this many people, so I think this is the main reason why I’ve been away for so long.  I promise to do better…..well, I better not make any promises.  School starts up in less that two weeks!
