What Happened to the Skinny AZ Part?

Now I bet your wondering when the "skinny AZ" part of this blog is going to kick in.  Well it turns out Phoenix has a pretty awesome food scene, so John and I have been eating our way through Phoenix AND Scottsdale, and it is delicious! So the skinny AZ part had been put on hold temporarily. But now that I have been here since June and am pretty settled at home and at work, I am ready to embark on the skinny AZ goal (plus my pants aren't fitting so well, so what better motivation/arm twisting). I usually will find any excuse to go shopping but the need for larger pants is not an excuse I am going to use.

I am working out with a trainer 3x/week and eating healthier. I plan to be in much better shape when I go home for Thanksgiving. That gives me approximately 10 weeks to get my sh*!t together.

Step one has been to stop taking an all or nothing approach to eating healthy and exercising. I used to think that if I couldn't work out for an hour and eat healthy everyday, that it was a fail, so why even try. My new motto is do what you can and try I catch the bug I've had once before in my life when I was addicted to being healthy. Hopefully surrounding myself with people who are addicted will get me there! My gym has a ton of people training for fitness competitions and my trainer, Doug, is a machine!

Now it is time to be T.N.T. dynamite!
