First Bikini(s)!

I did it! I bought a bikini! and actually I bought 2 since the second set was half off. I told myself I would try one on when I could fit into size 8 jeans, and I don’t yet, American Eagle size chart says I still half an inch to loose on my hips before that is happening. But, I’ve been mentally working hard to try to convince myself that I could do it, buy a bikini. And I saw a couple bloggers here posting how they got their first bikini recently and today since I was going to the mall anyways I thought, alright, I’m going to do it! I’m going to try one on! And I did! And then I bought them!!

I’m too lazy to get up and take a picture but they are little! as in the bottoms are as low as they can be, not as in bits of me are falling out all over, I assure you nothing is falling out, I like my support. I’ll do a progress picture soon and I’ll wear one of them to show.

I forget when I last blogged, but I think I’ve changed my breakfast since then, I’m just eating frittata now. No fruit and yogurt, partially because I wanted to lower sugar intake more but more partially because I’m too damn lazy to prepare it everyday lol.

This week has been good, after a couple weeks easing up on running because I was feeling some pain in my achilles I’m back at it full force now and did my longest run yet (by 100m) of 4.5 km! Sooo I will be doing 5k for my next long run in a couple days! I started going to a yoga class at my gym, I love yoga and have been meaning to go for ages but I have to go right from work and I never put enough thought into it until last week. And it was great so every Tuesday I’m going to ‘beginner yoga’ as it is labelled but turns out is yoga flow. Thursday has a yoga class too, this one labelled yoga flow so I wonder if it might be a bit harder? Anyways after a few weeks and I’m back into yoga more I might start going to that one as well. Then I went for a run later in the evening that day.

Wednesday I went to the gym to do weights right after work and later on in the evening went for a quick swim. Today I shopped for like an hour and a half and then did a 30 minutes interval run. And tomorrow is rest! Which is super well deserved I must say. I am stiff all over. Stretching has never felt as good as it did after my run this evening.

Weight is still around the same, 178 when I weighed myself on the weekend. Really hoping to see a drop this weekend! Especially after 2 days of double work outs. I really just want to see the number 175 on the scale, just so bad. Then I’ll feel like I’m on ‘the last 5lbs’ except not since I need to loose at least another 10 after that. According to those ideal body weight charts for my height I should be 156 I think. But we’ll see, I know I weigh more than typical due to my bone structure and that I’m naturally more muscular but who knows! Maybe I’ll be 156 one day and still have a belly and body that could comfortably loose another 10! That is soooo not in my sights though 146? No.
