Despite my many attempts to get myself motivated, I realized that it just wasn't happenin. It's been weighing on me heavily lately, I was concerned about my health and fearful that I would never lose the weight. Then a beautiful angel by the name of Ashley text messaged me yesterday out of the blue and told me she was going to be working at my downtown gym on Saturday and asked if I wanted to come in for a training session.
I was taken back at first since I haven't trained with her in 9 months, but deep down (ok, not so deep), I knew I had to do it. So I purchased $300 worth of sessions (only $41 a session!!) and made an appt. with Ash.
It was great. I needed it. I'm tired and I know I'll be sore tomorrow, but I feel such a heavy weight off my shoulders. I needed help and I have it again. I don't know what prompted her to text me, but I'm thankful as hell.

1 Year Anniversary!!

Matt and I decided to re-create our 'real' first date on our 1 year anniversary last night. We first went to Jai Thai on Broadway for dinner. It was delicious! I had the Garlic Galor and Matt had some weird seafood dish. We ended the meal with Jasmine tea and great conversation.
After dinner, we walked over to Dilletante to share a hot fudge sundae (the best we've ever had btw), but they were closed!! We couldn't believe it! It was disappointing, but we ended up
walking to B&O Espresso and I had mousse and he had bread pudding. It was very good. Not as good as the sundae at Dilletante though. Doh!

Doh!After B&O we walked up to the Lincoln Reservoir where we had stood and embraced 1 year ago. If you haven't been there, it is quite a beautiful place to be. The water features there are phenomenal. We sat on the wall and watched the waterfall and waite
d for these punk kids to move from our 'spot.' They never did and I think Matt was getting impatient and led us closer to the waterfall. He then got on one knee, pulled out my ring and I think asked me to marry him. I'm not quite sure though because I lost my shit and just embraced him and started balling. We hugged and cried for a few minutes and told each other how much we love each other and finally we put the ring on! It is just beautiful! I can't stop looking at it. I fell in love with this ring a few weeks back. It's from 1890, a very romantic period in England. I felt a real connection to this ring. I could tell it was made from love and was taken care of because whomever had it loved the ring as much as whomever made it loved them.
