New bike!!

Kenny got me this for our 9 year "anniversary" on 11 August! He is so adorable! I love that guy!!

For the last few weeks, I had been thinking about getting a bike - as I have been so inspired by Bitch cakes and her biking adventures on her gorgeous "Hello Kitty" bicycle in New York! She got to goal just recently and she is just awesome! So I had been looking online, and just thinking about what kind of bike to get. On Wednesday, Kenny was doing some overtime and texted me asking if I wanted to go to KFC (ha ha!) and he would pick me up from home on his way back from work. So, I thought this was an ideal time to go into the bike shop, which just so happens to be across from KFC!! So I was wandering around, and I was immediately drawn to the bike shown above! And then Kenny came over and said, "that is your bike, we're here to pick it up" I was just in shock!! He knows me so well! I almost started crying, but the bike guy was looking at me funny! lol

You can't really tell from the picture, but it is dark pink with butterflies on it - it's so cute - I totally love it!!! I went on it last night for a test ride and I ended up with about 5 kids running alongside me! And wanted to know what apartment I lived in so they could ask me to go out and cycle while they ran! Now anyone who knows me, knows I do not like children! lol They are too loud, cheeky and just messy - I much prefer dogs - they are cute, furry and do not talk back to you (well sometimes!! lol)

Kenny has also ordered himself a new bike, so we will be able to go bike rides together! I did suggest a tandem but he didn't like that idea!

On diet news, things are going BADLY! I have been stuffing my face with everything in sight for the last 3 weeks. I don't know why I do it. It makes me feel sick, guilty, horrible, fat! But I seem to wake up every morning and think "what can I eat first??"

My training at the gym has been good though! I had a half hour PT session on Monday and boy was that TOUGH. I then did the half hour spin class straight after my PT session and I loved it this time around! I really pushed myself and burned 700 calories all in during the hour! My legs and shoulders were so sore for four days afterwards. It's only now I feel I can walk properly again!

Only 3 more weeks until we leave for Florida!!! I am so excited!!! I need to get my diet under control and at least lose 10 pounds before I go.............. sounds easy, huh?!
