Patience

I have no PATIENCE when it comes to this whole working out and eating right thing. I want to see a difference now!! It is driving me crazy!!

I know a difference is happening because I feel different about myself. My self-esteem is on a high right now...until I go shopping for pants...and then it all goes down the drain.

My mid-section needs some major work. After having two kids all of the weight went to my stomach and thighs. My thighs are a little better than before (during the school year I lost quite a bit there), but my stomach is just so gross looking and my pants aren't fitting right there.

I refuse to buy the same size pants that I did when I left school!!! I can wear a size 10 in blue jeans, but I wear a size 14 in dress pants!! GROWL...

Patience Laura, patience....

Confession: We are super tight on money right now because I am going back to school for my Masters. We have to pay the first part of my tuition by August 6th (a little over 1,000) and it is really putting a strain on me and my hubby. This stress is causing a lot of sleepless nights. I want to go back to school, but I feel sooo guilty....

Cheer: I went to the gym today and I burned over 300 calories in 30 minutes!!

  1. Laura, have you considered taking out student loans for your master's? I know that my loans are the only reason I am able to go back to school. You are doing great on the working out and losing weight! Don't be upset about the dress pants size - those always fit different than jeans. The last time I bought some, I had to buy about 4 sizes bigger because of that.

  2. I am not a patient person myself, it drives me crazy that I can't just wake up thin.
    I have always had to buy dress pants in a larger size, I don't know why they can't just make a size 10 a size 10!!!

    About neighbors; this is actually the first place we have ever lived that our neighbors didn't suck. The only exception is this one family on the corner who have the worst kids.
