First Walk Around the block

So I woke up this morning and decided I should get my berry-butt in gear and take a walk with my dog, Lucy. I laid in bed for about 20 minutes before I could convince myself enough that it was worth it. Boy am I glad I did! I was only gone for about 35 minutes, but that's better than zero minutes!

It was a rough walk/run. I ran a little bit in the beginning but soon realized that would not be a good idea since Lucy thought running meant a full out sprint while I attempted to hold on to her leash as she dragged me behind her! Towards the end of the walk/run I was able to jog without Lucy trying to rip off my arm.

Total this morning I did about 2 miles and now I feel energized for the day! I need to remember this feeling when I try to talk myself out of working out. Another bonus of the day.... I got to wear my new workout outfit from Christmas. I look more like a grape now but in a few months I will hopefully resemble an eggplant (more curvy than round)!

That's Lucy at the bottom. Better picture to follow!

Becoming a Worthy Chivette

Ok, I signed up with this blog back in 2010 and never really had anything to write. I would randomly come on every once and a while and post something silly or weird. I had 10 posts since 2010! Not a great start to blog writing!

Well, I have now found something to blog about! Becoming a Chivette. Thechive.com and theberry.com are two wonderfully entertaining websites that my husband and I check out quite often. Most of the time the photos are odd, funny or interesting but some posts are more than that. TheBerry will do a daily "hotties" post with attractive males. TheChive does different posts throughout the week of all different kinds of lovely ladies. To truly understand what I am talking about you may just need to check out these websites for yourself.

As of right now I would not consider myself Chive-worthy. I know I am unhealthy and need to lose weight so this is my goal for the year and for my blog...to lose weight to become a Chivette and blog about it as I go.

I will be working on myself and updating my blog more frequently so as to stay motivated and to keep my followers (hopeful that I get some:P) up to date!

Happy reading!
