I'm moving this weekend, just for a few months. I'll be spending the Summer at a friends house on Lake Washington, commuting to the International District for at least the next 6-8 weeks and moving back to my pad on Boren by August 1st. I'm lucky that this contract job is in a location that makes it super convenient for me to attend Pilates classes on my way to/from work. Right now I'm deciding if I should increase my cardio by just parking by my current apartment (still have RPZ pass) and then walking the 1.4 miles to the job. Hmm...
I put on a swimsuit yesterday for the first time in months. It was loose on me and I will be needing to replace that before the Summer starts. I find myself absolutely putting off shopping for smaller clothes. Went to Lane Bryant Tuesday so I could get some pants that were interview worthy and could only make myself buy one pair of plain black slacks. Other things were there and cute, but I feel like if I start buying clothes they will just be thrown away or donated by June.
One thing that I haven't mentioned again is the Zija...this stuff has been the best compliment to my change of routine and my weight-loss and overall attempt at getting healthier. I actually became a distributor for the product last month because so many people were asking me about what I was doing to loose weight. I keep saying "Pilates and Zija, Pilates and Zija" when they ask. To date I've had 3 friends get on Zija and FIVE people that I know have begun Pilates lessons - including my Mom. I guess when you are on fire people notice it and want to tap into it. Nutritionally, I am so satiated that I'm rarely hungry. When do find myself really hungry I notice that I'm not just one big ball of cravings bouncing around. I am able to sit back and make a pre-planned decision about what to eat. Those uncontrollable urges (which I swear were like an addict craving a hit) are gone and while I still do indulge - it's just not all the time anymore.

In other news, my 4 month membership with Vitality expires SUNDAY! I signed a year contract but it starts back up on 4/19 (my birthday!). Until then I will be using another Living Social thing that I bought a while back ($30 for 10 reformer classes) and...walking...to and from this new job.
One last thing....the latest progress shot featuring the blue dress from earlier posts... Wish I would have taken more full body shots at the beginning...
