So I have found that while snowboarding is fun, the after effects - not so much. Last night I went snowboarding for the very first time. Many of my friends are avid snowboarders and they finally convinced me to head up to Welch Village which is quite far away from where I live. I got my board and boots and headed out into the snow. From then on it was more me in the snow instead of riding on the board. My balance kind sucks but I managed to have a blast the entire night. I arrived home at 6 in the morning, tired and happy.
The problems started when I woke up this morning (ok it was afternoon. I got home at 6 am ok??) I was so sore I couldn't hardly get out of my loft bed! I can't complain about this too much though because the pain in my legs got me out of scrubbing the kitchen floor. If I actually managed to get down there without crying, I certainly would not have been able to get back up! Part of the hurt might be from starting the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred. She is the trainer from the Biggest Loser (one of my all time FAVORITE reality shows) and she knows how to kick butt! I started it yesterday before going snowboarding (why I have noooooooo idea!) which I realized might have been bad timing. Anywhoo I got a good workout in!
Speaking of workout I have been trying to eat better and work out on a consistent basis. My friend and I are keeping each other accountable so hopefully I stick with it. It just seems like a waste to buy and use so much makeup and drool over so many clothes if I can never fully appreciate them because of how I view myself and my body! (Yah im overweight, blah blah blah get over it!)
Ooo and a note to none snow-people? Snow+makeup= BAD! Thankfully I knew this and only wore a little of my Bare Escentuals foundation and some Burts Bees chapstick but my friend decided to go in full face. Hopefully she didn't pay extra for a mascara that was water-proof! She looked like she had been crying all night! (And of course i'm evil and didn't say a word - even when she was flirting with one of the guys there :) )
Haha next time I will I promise (all lies!)
Till next time - and i promise more makeup and fashion then (hey i did say i would write about whatever I wanted!)
~Bello Amore!
