So the other day I was freaking out a bit.
I have been really good this week. Over the past month of so, I had put on several pounds. But this week, I have been exercising fervently (ran 5 miles on Sunday/Monday/Wednesday, took classes/ran 1-2 miles today and Tuesday) and eating less. My weight, after the gym this morning was 133.4. I know that if I keep myself on this roll, I will be under 130, possibly 125 by July 1, when I leave to meet Juan's family.
Oh, did I mention that?? I bought a plane ticket to California!
In other news, I have an interview tomorrow at the school where I have been coaching this season. They have an opening in their admissions office, and had interviewed a bunch of candidates and nearly offered the job to someone. Long story short, the headmaster was telling the other coaches that he wished I would be around next year to coach and one of them mentioned my plans to move to California ASAP. I emailed the headmaster to let him know that even though I do plan to move eventually, if I am gainfully employed here for the next year before getting married, I would love to coach next spring. In the end, they held off on offering that job to one of the candidates and I had a preliminary interview on Monday. Tomorrow, I am going in for a day-long session of interviews I am incredibly nervous, but also really hopeful about getting the position. I don't know the salary, but it may allow me to move on campus and live with the students and save all of my money for moving/wedding/school in the future. Juan keeps mentioning how excited he is to get married... I think the ring is really coming soon :)
I went shopping yesterday and bought two pairs of pants (skinny jeans and skinny cropped stretch pants) from the GAP both in a size 4. I know the Gap, J Crew, Banana, etc. are all major vanity sizers and that I don't belong in a size 4, but it did make me feel good. I want to get under 120 so I will wear a size 2.
Thank you to everyone who left me words of encouragement, it's exactly what I needed... Cinnamon, Dani, Ariana, Adeline, Cierra... and also thanks to those of you who are still reading and still following. I'm in a much better position to get caught up on reading and commenting these days.
And I know I've been saying this for a while, but I am going to post progress pictures. When I hit 129, I promise.
