-18.6, 5K, and Jump Ropes...

Hello World,

It has been a while since my last post. I am currently -18.6lbs!! Go me! I like this losing weight thing! It's kind of fun. I like that I have friends who are doing it with me and that it's actually working! I have officially gone down a size in jeans. This only means that I am fitting in old jeans that look like new because I gained weight before I could wear them out! I refuse to buy any new jeans until absolutely necessary.

Cheryl, Tiffany, and I are currently "training" for the Weight Watchers Walk-It 5K on May 22nd!! We are going to walk obviously, but it turns out we are WAY out of shape. We need to average a 15 min mile walking and today we averaged about a 17 min mile. We will get there and it will feel so amazing to finish! In addition to our walking this week we are also doing a Jump Rope class. I'll just let that sink in for a minute. LOL! It is quite a site to see us jumping! There are about 5 of us ladies from the office jumping rope and doing core exercises. At one point I had to put my jump rope down and jump without it. I kept getting tangled and hitting myself causing welts on my arm! Apparently you need to be somewhat coordinated to jump rope! LOL! My body is screaming at me at the moment and I get to do this again tomorrow! I can't wait! (that's sarcasm in case you missed it!)

In other Pemberton news, TJ is back to work at Heartland which is great. I am still couponing. I have got my mom and sister addicted to it as well. Except they really like me to do all the work then I take them and tell them what to get. Kaytie FINALLY got all of her stuff out of the house. This means TJ officially has his man cave and all of his wonderful archery stuff can have a place out of my living room!

I signed up for this site called blogging for books. This publisher sends out advance copies of books and asks that you read them then blog the review! I just got mine last week so be looking for my review on here in the coming weeks!

Hope all is well with everyone else!

Talk to you soon!
