Happy Birthday to me....Happy Birthday to meeee....

Whatever with the Past has Gone....

What a nice saying on your Birthday...so true...and I hope this is a great year for my family, and loved ones! This one is especially for my Twin Sister Shannon! I love you Shannie!

Today I woke up had so many lovely Birthday messages online. My friend Lisa was the first to say Happy Birthday to me this morning...Thanks Lisa. I talked to my Mom for a while this morning which was nice. My twin sister Shannie called too. My husband was off to work early in the morning, but came home really early today, after I got the baby sleeping for his afternoon nap I had a little relaxing me time. I got some warm clothes on and my Vibram Komodo Five Fingers Shoes with the socks, and headed out the door for my "Sun Run Homework Training". I did a brisk warm up walk for 5 minutes and then ran for the full 28 remaining minutes. I could have kept running and running...I was having a really great time, but my TOES were cold as I ran by the house... so I ended it lol! But I felt so free and amazing...my lungs and heart were in great condition and I never felt like slowing down!

AWESOME FEELING!!

After a little while of warming up...I bundled up the kids and we walked to get Khaled at school. SO that was a really enjoyable walk too. Later on I headed down to the "GoodLife" for ZUMBA! and BodyPump...taught by our lovely Nathalie! Had a great time with all the girls! Joanne gave me a really cute red "GoodLife" T-Shirt (I am wearing it now and loving it! So cool!!) and some lotion! Thanks Joanne! Elly had lots of hugs for me...awwww! I felt so special and had a great time! Joanne had on her new Vibram Komodos too and Elly had hers all ordered! :)

When I came home my hubby had a yummy cake which I indulged in, so good going down but then I felt like crap lol...anyways I have to get off to bed...I am tired!!

Thanks Elly...

Awwww my little gym buddy Elly brought me back a beautiful gift from her trip to Mexico! It is a beautiful little decorative bowl and it is so shiny! I will take a picture and post it. I was so touched that she thought of me, while she was away enjoying the sun and the beach...and also, her little daughter Becca thought of Hessah and got her a little gift too that she chose on her own! Those two little girls love each other and they are so cute together! They love "Ba-Torton's" (aka Tim Hortons) they like to go "all together" and sit and have donuts! Awww little girls are so sweet!

This is for all my little friends...love you girls!

The gym suuuure was lonely without Elly, you could feel it...now that she is back it feels complete. Her smile and personality light up the gym and everyone knows her just by Elly :) Thanks my friend! 2011 is going to be our year to shine and look amazing! InshaAllah (God Willing)

At the gym today, I was so happy that Charissa and Joanne saved me a seat at the front in Romain's class, because it was an AWESOME RPM class as usual, this was my 3rd time doing the New Release and I like it! Elly & I missed the last 10 mins of BodyCombat because the class started late and then the childcare closed right at 8:30pm. The New Release is TOUGH! I mean the leg track is just unbelievable! This was my 3rd time doing the BodyCombat release.

I didn't mention, but we have an amazing new RPM instructor named Ari, she is loved by all the members, I wonder if she even knows how many people have said "She's the BEST!" so much energy and just a great instructor! Another nice thing is that you always see her actually participating in the other classes, and that is always nice to see. Tuesday is our "Double-Romain Night" and his classes are really top-notch and hard to skip! I do miss going to Duff's extended class on Monday's, because I was doing the BodyAttack class with his wife Nathalie for a while, and then I showed up last night and he was not teaching the extended class anymore :( I am gonna ask him WHAT'S UP? :P

TODAY'S WORKOUTS:

53min. RPM (494 Calories)
53min. BodyCombat (495 Calories)

So that was my day....I had a nice little day but I did eat waaaaaaaaaaay too many goodies and hope to redeem myself for the rest of the week!! :)
