Well, I finally did it. I quit my 2nd job!!!! I've been working 2 jobs for almost 3 years now. I got the 2nd job so I could qualify for a mortgage - it was supposed to be a temporary thing (like 6 months) and I've been there for almost 3 years now. I basically work 7 days a week and take one weekend a month off. My regular job is 45 hours a week, Monday - Friday. My part time job is 15-20 hours per week (sometimes up to 30 hours) and includes some evenings and weekends.
I'm going to miss that little bit of extra income but when I gave my notice yesterday, it was like a huge weight lifted off me. I will now have time for myself and I can focus on my new healthy lifestyle without worrying about time to fit workouts, meal prep, etc. in.
I just recently moved in with my bf of 5 years (about time, I know) and I have no kids, but he has 2 that we have every other week (boys, 6&7). I'm excited to be able to share some more time with all of them and as selfish as this sounds, more time with myself.
Now I can put the finishing touches on my home gym and be able to work out regularly without worrying about schedules. I just ordered 7 new Cathe DVD's to go with the 2 I already have (I started with Basic July 1st and I'm working my way up the progression ladder) so that should keep my busy for a while.
My goal is to be physically ready come the new year to purchase one of the STS series and really give it a go. I'm currently doing WW and have lost 11.8lbs in 7 weeks and have 25.2 more to go to reach my goal weight of 135. (I'm 5'4" and 36 years old so I'm thinking 135 is a good number for me to strive for)
Sorry to ramble - just needed to share. I'm excited for my "new" life to begin.
