I'm Getting Married

On October 22, 2010 my boyfriend proposed to me!  I was overjoyed.  Of course, the joy quickly turned to stress as I had less than six months to plan my wedding.  So, now I am in the mist of planning a Spring wedding.  It has become less stressful because most of the details have been planned.  However, I now must also re-evaluate how I will train over the next several months.  My original plan was to build, build, build muscle.  Add on those pounds (which would also include some fat) and let the good times roll.  However, the last thing I want to do is be "thick" in my wedding dress.  So now I've found myself still trying to build muscle but at a much less extreme pace.  We'll see how that goes.

I've also started teaching Zumba classes.  They are a blast.  This Winter I'm only teaching 1-2 classes a week.  However, starting in January I'll be teaching 3-4 classes a week.  That's a lot of cardio.  I must make sure that I eat the right type of calories to balance that type of activity - and if anything else, I'm hoping it helps with my glutes!
