Hot Roller-Skating Mama

So. I did it. I bought me a pair of Quad Roller Skates


I was comparing a couple different ones and I was seriously tempted to get an all black pair. Worst comes to worst, I get another pair later on in life. There were some good reviews on this and honestly, for the pain in my feet from the rental skates, I am hoping this makes it more enjoyable.

I plan on going at least every other weekend. It's a cheap way to exercise and have fun :)

I have a strong suspicion that my Kid will want his own pair. Which is fine...if he spends more time skating and less time playing games. That is the deal :)

It should also be interesting, since he is already a size 12. Let's hope his feet don't have a growth spurt after he gets his own!

Also, who knew you burned SO MANY calories roller skating?? Awesome :)

I get these in 2 days. Here's hoping it proves a pain free skating dance!

Jeans and Inches and Weight oh my

So. I have been wearing my jeans, innocently thinking they were my size 12's, since I had thought I only bought 1 pair of size 10's. Ahem. This morning I pull out a pair and check the size (ok, ok it's because if I weight more than x amount, I wear size 12 but if I lose a couple lbs, I wear size 10. blah!) and all 3 of my jeans were size 10's. No 12's in the bunch. This mean, ALL last week I was wearing size 10's and had NO IDEA.

You gotta understand. I thought my size 12's were getting slightly looser. NOT my 10's!

AWESOMENESS is reigning me :)

Of course, this is just this brand, because clothes sizes it like ice cream, different places different flavors.

Still, I am very happy :) I have no idea if I can fit a size 8. I have some lovely hips on me and my thigh, though getting smaller, are still bigger than you're average!! More muscle than fat though :) I love doing squats!! My calves are scary big too, though those are starting to trim down just a wee bit :)

I am losing inches all around, which is good. I am slowly losing weight. Which is also good. Ok, granted I ate chinese food on Saturday night and thus gained 2 lbs which I now have to re-work off, but it's a doable thing :)

Also, love roller skating :) Went again with the Kid on Sunday.

Roller Skating - who knew!!

We had so much fun this weekend. It was a seriously busy weekend, but awesome.

Saturday - we went roller skating. I only fell 3 times. Both knees are bruised. My right wrist does not like me and my ankles have protested enough already. But it was awesome!!! OMG so much fun!! If my skates did not constantly try to make do the splits! Suffice it to say, my inner thighs are also giving me some pains still!! I now want skates. Ahem.

I am hoping to take the Kid skating on Saturday (after my wax appointment) and see how it goes :)
