from a pinto to a ferrari

I had my first date with Darin. I was incredibly nervous beforehand. Apparently for no good reason. Darin is one cool dude who was super easy to talk to. We discussed my goals. I told him I want to get dangerous. He rephrased it by telling me that I am a Pinto and he is going to turn me into a Ferrari.  It's probably time for my before picture.

At least he didn't call me a dump truck. However, I have always said that the first guy who told me I have dumps like a truck, truck, truck I would marry on the spot. The problem I have with posting a real "before" picture is that I still look like it. So, until there is some noticeable change, I'm going to keep those pictures private. But just know that in due time I will post the frumpy, pale, chubby pictures. I can't wait either. Other than the car analogy nothing earth shaking was discussed at the initial meeting. The fat test is happening on our next date. Tuesday, Nov. 2nd at 5:15.  I have been looking for a way to loose 60 pounds in 5 days, but short of amputation have found nothing. Rats. Darin did show me a picture of himself dressed up as Richard Simmons/Carrot Top  and he was wearing Kelsey's pink shorty shorts so that he had something to be embarrassed about to ease my fat test anxiety. What a guy, eh?  on a side note: his legs were rockin in that picture. If I get leg muscles like that, I might not wear any clothes. ever. 

the last supper

I went over to Bob and Carol's for dinner and it truly did have a feeling like the last supper. Especially when Carol pulled out the cheesecake. I mean what's a girl to do? I ate the cheesecake with gusto and it was amazing. Too good to feel bad about. Life is too short to not eat cheesecake. I wonder what Darin will say to that theory. I can't wait to just get started with this program already. The suspense is killing me. I'm ready to get dangerous. I haven't decided if I'm going to post the results of my fat test on here. I probably will. No shame in a starting point. Plus I really need to figure out how to do pictures so I can upload the frumpiest before picture in the world. The crazy part is, I'm so worked up about everything that I can't sleep and it's almost 3:00 in the morning. Not cool.

calipers are not a girls best friend

i'm stressing about the fat test. pinching my fat and recording that information is not my idea of a good time, but this a journey and I'm going to go through with it. good and bad. i just need to keep the mindset that this is my beginning point. i can't possible be the chubbiest person Darin has ever met. right? this waiting to get going is killing me.

consultation scheduled

I have my consultation appointment scheduled with my soon to be personal trainer, Darin. It is still 4 days away and I'm already nervous for it. He said I need to have goals to talk about so that he can shape a program for me. I'm not sure what my goals are. I want to be faster, stronger, leaner, more efficient. but who doesn't want that? My friend Jared said I would be dangerous if I saw Darin. Hence the title of this blog. I'm Kim, and my goal is to get dangerous.
