 I couldn't wait to weigh myself today and at the same time I was anxious about it. What if all the extra walking and the spin classes weren't making a difference? To my relief, I lost 4 lbs. I mentioned I had my period when i weighed myself last, so I think a couple of those lbs. were water weight and normal fluctuation, but I do think I must have lost at least a lb. for real. I had a feeling it would make some kind of difference, because the way I was eating and having a nearly sendentary lifestyle, I was maintaining my weight. So I figured if I upped the exercise it would have to help.

I have another spin class tomorrow. It's been hard with my school schedule and my son's schedule to work them in because they are either very early morning or late afternoon. But when my son is done with school it will be easier. 

Today I have the meeting about the internship to see where I can get matched to. I'm a little nervous because I don't know exactly what I want to do yet. But this will hopefully help me find out.

My son learned how to rollerblade over the last couple days. He was invited to a party at a skate place and I asked the mom if there were other things to do because my son doesn't know how to skate. She said there was other stuff like laser tag and arcade games. So he decided to go. Turned out everyone else wanted to skate so he strapped on some roller skates and tried them out. Then someone told him rollerblades were easier so he tried those, and picked it up pretty easily. He even wanted to go back the next day! So he tried to get a couple friends to go with him, and they were busy, so we went alone. He loves it!

I was afraid he wouldn't even want to try, but that was my fear coming through. I never learned to skate because I'm terrified of falling. My mother tried to teach me to ice skate and I hated it. I'm so proud of him for trying it and sticking with it. He wants his own roller blades already, but we live on a hill so I said once he gets really good at it maybe we'll think about it.
