And most of all, if you know me in real life you will either choose to stop reading or keep the knowledge of this blog quiet, and privately allow me to know you are reading. I only share this information with close friends. I do not share this with facebook for a purpose: it is meant to be semi-private. Not "public" knowledge in the sense of the majority of those in real life knowing about it. If you can accept all that has been stated, sit back, grab a box of tissues, and be prepared to endure the rocky road of trying to conceive while trying to get out of the shadows of infertility.

Rockin' it Out!

Ok ladies on a high, I may be unorganized. Didn't read the chapter for school but guess what?

My first quiz today....9/10!! Woot!!

I am rockin' it out thus far. This weekend I will get organized, and actually read for class. I plan on picking up a day or two at work, so we shall see how it goes.

Now that I am on my third week of watching what I eat, I have decided to add regular exercise. So today, my buns are feeling the burn! I would LOVE to do the Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred. BUT I have all of these Biggest Loser DVDs that I haven't utilized regularly.

My goal for this week: Exercise 4 days for 30 minutes each day.

The BL DVDs say to do the DVD 4-5x a week for 2 weeks on level 1, 2 weeks on level 2, 2 weeks on level 3.

I am doing Biggest Loser: Cardio Max and will probably utilize my Biggest Loser Yoga DVD the day after for stretching purposes. It recommends that you mix it will the Sculpting DVD every day but there is NO way at this point! lol

My next goal will be 30 minutes 6 days a week. And then I will bump up the times :-)

I am excited to Rock it out in school and with my health. Now if I could get my house and finances in order I would be GOLDEN!!

I know I posted before on weight loss...My first goal is 180. Next goal will be 170, then 160. It is crazy to type those numbers. I can do this. Keep me motivated ladies!

I not only want to do this because it is best for my overall health, but I want to have more energy. I want to have the best chance to have a healthy pregnancy. I want to be a strong woman mentally and physically. I want to be the best wife I can be. I don't want my chunky thighs to rub together for once in my life! I want to have amazing arms, and a nice butt. To feel good about the way I look in a swimsuit.

Off topic, I started my metformin back up again. I hadn't taken it regularly since I had to stop it for the HSG/MRI time period. I did 5 days on 500 mg, and today started day 1 out of day 5 on 1,000mg. My thirst has gone up (which isn't a bad thing!) and oiy! I have gotten small headaches almost every day. I am ready to be gone, they went away last time after I got used to them. I am going to try to get up to the 1,500mg and see how it makes me feel. I think it is odd that the met doesn't give me the usual side effect most women complain about. But I have felt like facing a cold today, thinking that is a lovely symptom. I just felt tired and under the weather.
