My own home gym!

So, I have a small home gym. Its in a small room and its kind of cramped quarters. Here's a link to a video I posted about my home gym set up.
My Home Gym Set Up 
As you can see, its kind of cramped.  I can get a good workout in, but I spend time moving stuff around just to have space for deadlifts, then move stuff around again, to do bench press.  Kind of a pain, but I'm so thankful to have a home gym for days I can't get to, or simply don't want to go to the gym.  Closest gym to me, 35 miles away.  I wish I could have a gym closer, but nope. 

So my hubby told me a plan.  He'd like to buy a big shed and put it on a concrete slab we have in our yard.   That's going to be just a little expensive.  Oh, not horrid, but a few thousand bucks. Then once we move the mower, snow blower, and some of his tools, he wants to convert the third garage bay into a home gym.  Put my gym, all my weights, the spin bike, my rower, and if we have room the treadmill out there.   I'm not sure we'll be able to get the treadmill in there, and that's ok. 

Now doing this will mean spending money to make changes.  We'd take the garage door off, and wall it off, making it a simple wall, and maybe put in a walk out door.    We'd need to seal the wall between the garage bays, cause it leaks water.  You know, park my car when its got snow on it, and the snow melts, water seeps under the wall.  It needs to be sealed so that doesn't ruin my gym equipment.  

So, I've decided to cut back on my makeup buying and put that money in savings for my home gym set up.  If I spend half as much on makeup and put that in savings I'll have a nice nest egg built up for  a great shed for hubby, and getting my gym set up.    I might have to just make due with a garage door for a while, but that's ok. It will be spring soon and I'll probably open up the door and let the nice weather in!

I'm ok with buying less makeup.  After all, how many eye shadow palettes can one person use?  I will still get stuff, but come on.  I really need to cut back.  Besides, here soon, I'm going to need new clothes since I'm starting to lose inches!.

I found a new way of eating I'm really going to give a go too.  Eat more to Weigh less.  It basically says we've all be starving ourselves and need to get to eating 2000 or more calories a day.  I've been bumping up my calories up and I've not gained any weight.  And I have more energy for my workouts.  And it simply feels good to eat more freaking food. 

Did you know that the 1200-1400 calorie a day diet a lot of women go on is the recommended calorie intake for toddler?  Yes, a 2 year old is to eat the same amount of food as a full grown woman.  How fucked up is that?  Who  did that?  Who decided to tell full grown women that eating the amount of food for a 2 year old was what we needed to do?  I'd like to slap the shit out of them.   

So there is my plan.  Less makeup, more savings, and eventually a great home gym set up in my garage!
