Have you ever found yourself driving down the road, not really thinking about anything, when all of a sudden your brain lights up like a sparkler with a thought so clear you can see forever?

Doesn’t happen often but when it does you quite simply can’t ignore it. When it happened to me yesterday the thought was: ” I can’t stand this anymore, enough is enough, I can’t do this alone”

One of the biggest struggles in my life currently is getting fit and losing weight. UGH! Nothing is happening. I stay the same. I give into these Winter Blues , and eat pasta, lie in my LovSac and watch TV , sleep and get sadder and think tomorrow I will do something.

Well, tomorrow is today. Yesterday I drove to the gym, and told them I had heard a rumor that eating right and working out would greatly increase ones chances of getting fit and losing weight. After they had assured me that this was in fact true I said Sign me the Heck Up. I now have a gym, and a trainer. ( which in my part of the world is an affordable option )

Now, I have always been a big supporter of ” You don’t need a gym, put your shoes on and go for a walk” which is how I lost the first half of my weight. I lost another chunk reading on Malena’s website and following her advice ( which is how I ended up writing to her ) but nothing for the past year. ( darn pastry in the studio and fast food , starving, after gigs )

Today I go for my first workout with Klarissa. ( who I met yesterday, she has as many different colored hair extensions as I do, good omen that ) I’ll take a photo today, and in one month, on my Birthday, I’ll take another and post them.

And in four months, Malena and I will go to Baltic Con, and I will play for you. Wearing a corset. Feeling really good, and looking like I have always dreamed I did.

If you can change your mind, you can change your life.

Watch me.

Love and Sweat,
