This Insta-Friday is brought to you by the letter ‘W’… for I thought it would be a brilliant idea to Walk home 3 miles from Best Buy this morning.

So, I have now put my weight (those three numbers) out there for the whole world to see. Um, Yay!

In October, when I quit my 8-5 job to grab my dream with both hands and hold on tight, I started going to the YMCA five times a week.

Yup – five times.

I walk / try to jog on the treadmill for 20 minutes or one mile every day. (If my booty is moving slower than 20 minutes per mile – I make myself stay on until I hit one mile).

The first day I got on the treadmill – I was pretty sure I was going to toss my cookies about three minutes in. At that point, I realized that I am no longer the dancer / ballerina I was in 1992 (Whaaaaa?).

Anyway, fast forward to today.

My 2004 Tahoe – holla! – has had a CD stuck in the radio since the first day I got it. That means, only radio for me – which is totally fine.

It also means that every time I start the car – the CD spins and pretends that it is going to mirculously play. God only knows what CD is in there – my best guess would definately be Boys II Men.

For Christmas, momma gave me money to get a new stereo in the car!

So right now, Best Buy is putting it in! I see a massive road trip in my future – with lots of tunes!

Last night, I told Mr. B that I could totally walk home – no problem! He has a very busy day at work today, so I thought I was being super awesome.

About two miles in, at 48 degrees and a good breeze going, I texted “rescue me”.

I was only 1/2 kidding, but decided to go for it.

I entertained myself (and made excuses for a few rest stops) by taking pictures of the crazy awesome desert I live in just for you.

The moral of the story – yes, it is super hard for me to excercise.

But yes, it gets better most days (some days are still hard).

No, I haven’t seen a huge weight drop yet – I need to decrease some more calories and get my cardio up – and that is ok! I have to start somewhere, right?!

I hope you have an awesome day!

Insta-Friday photos are taken on the Instagram iPhone app (free) or any other phone pic in all their grainy glory!

I don’t always have my camera with me, but I usually have my phone. The pictures may be blurry or grainy, but I am so glad I have a way to capture the moments through the week that I might forget! It is so fun to sift through them on Friday and remember those little moments throughout the week… usually I find myself with a wide smile as I go through them!
