<p class="MsoNormal">Day 3</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I did something I said I wouldn&#8217;t do.<span> </span>I stepped on Evil Scale before the scheduled day.<span> </span>Good news I was a half a pound lighter.<span> </span>But this wonâ€™t be the case everyday because weight fluctuates daily.  So I need to keep the promises I&#8217;ve made to myself.<span> I made them so I&#8217;d lose AND to take care of myself.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Speaking of promises I made a new one already.  <strong>NO</strong> glute flexing in the mirror.<span> </span>Unflexed my butt looks almost round, full, and relatively smooth.<span> </span>But flexed it looks like the surface of the moon hit with millions of meteorite showers.<span> </span>What am I thinking?<span> </span>How am I going to get on that stage in a swimsuit with a bottom the size of a sliver of pie?<span> </span>Scary.<span> </span>Well Iâ€™m not competeing to win but to lose, so as long as I have lost the weight I&#8217;ll just &#8220;forgetâ€ to flex my butt if Iâ€™m supposed too.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Speaking of competing, I talked to a friend yesterday who competes.<span> </span>I asked her if it was totally unrealistic to give this a try without a trainer.<span> </span>She said she didnâ€™t think so, Iâ€™d just have to be commited.<span> </span>Commited.<span> </span>Yeah wouldnâ€™t every exercise and diet plan work if I was committed?<span> </span>This is why Iâ€™m decided to set a date and stand on a stage in a little bitty sort of swimsuit thingy.<span> </span>Anyway I hung up the phone feeling encouraged and even a little excited.<span> </span>Not excited about getting up on stage but excited about setting a goal and sticking it out.<span> </span>Okay, I AM really excited about the possibility of fitting into a size 4!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The gym seemed a bit like a chore today but thatâ€™s only because I had to go home to get a hair band because I forgot one.<span> </span>After grabbing the hair band, I decided I HAD to check my email before I left.<span> </span>It took me 2.5 hours to read my email and research cities I might want to move to.  An almost complete waste of time since we aren&#8217;t moving any time soon. <span> </span>I finally did get my butt out the door and once I got started working out it wasnâ€™t nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be, in fact, it was fun even though it was leg day.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hugs and High Fives<br />
