Hoo-rah!

Ok- I am fartin around- thinking about going to bed and I think (I'll go check our page again and oh look the new video is up!) So I watch it and see myself and hear about what all is going on. I miss Christie! But I got PUMPED Up- I put new songs on my IPOD today and I am going to run to the fitness center before i go to bed! PEACE!

Saturday

I got to sleep in a little bit this morning and got to spend a lot of time with my mom today. She hasn't been doing too hot lately and it was nice to spend time with her- there's not that much time during the week-if you could imagine. You know it kinda makes you think about complaining that I can't eat a burger, or an oreo exactly when I want it and there are other people who are dealing with MUCH bigger issues and a lot more pain every day and I am pouting about 3-8 weeks. Suck it up Pooh Bear! Master Chief told us something Friday and I hope that it will stick with me for a long time- "it's a mind game" I control my body, it DOES NOT control me! I can look at those potato chips or a cookie and I was able to say today- "I am stronger than that- that cookie is not stronger than me". Ok it sounds kinda stupid typing it out but I was really proud of myself when I felt weak and I said it to myself in my head and walked away. THat is huge for me! HUGE! ANyway- one more day to catch my breath and back to the palace of pain-muh ha ha!

Funny Pictures

I must remind myself that my FAVVVVOOORITE junk food

Weird!

Ok, I was driving home today- talking to one of my sisters on the phone, listening to the radio and sitting at a stop light on Walnut Grove. Everything is just waiting around and all of a sudden I see something out of the corner of my eye. I look, still on my cell, and there is this young looking 18-23? yr old guy halfway hanging out of his passenger window and leaning towards my driver window. I kinda jerk back from shock to see this guy with a huge grin on his face. He is waving at me and screams something at me before busting out laughing and jumping back in his car. I am not sure because it happened so fast but it sounded like he screamed "POOH BEAR" either that or he just yelled gimerish. I waved back- still unknowing WTH is going on- the four boys in the black SUV cheer and they take off.

I was like ....ok.....did I really just hear that? I must have been dreaming and then I hear my sister on the phone who asked, " what was that?"

So- four males in black SUV on Walnut Grove- who are you? Do I know you? Do you know me? and What did you say?

It's too funny!

A change

Yesterday workout was really hard to the point that I did not want to eat or do anything at all. Today though, I got a little nap in before workout and our PM workout was not easy to say the least but for some reason I feel great being home. I try a new way to cook my fish- see forum- I got a relaxing shower and I feel a tiny bounce in my step! Just a little- don't want Master Chief to feel like he didn't do his job..Trust me HE DID! I am still trying to add extra things to my blog page but I am doing something wrong- it won't do it. I can't wait til the end of April-we are going to have the best girls' night out. We have to celebrate CSI's birthday, Abzzile's birthday, MY birthday! (Master chief's birthday too) and all the other girls will have a Merry un-birthday with us!

GRRRR!

Ever watch the discovery channel and see the big lion rip into the dead zebra after he just tackled it to the ground? Is it bad that this is the image that comes to mind when I snatch my orange wedges after workout? Just saying. Yeah I killed it and it was good too.....grrr =)

NOOOO!!!!

I just found out that I forgot to pack my eggs this morning. I have my grapefruit but no protein. It is only 15 mins to 9Am and I am already tired! I can eat my apple for a snack to make it but I want my eggs!! I need a nap..

I love how our team is so close and we can just laugh and crack up with each other. That makes it easier.

Feelin Sore but good

Ok- let me introduce you to a "person" I see one day a week. She is a nurse who works with one of the children that I see. She is a typical older black woman- A "big Momma" type that tells it like it is. I walked in the house and her jaw dropped, " Good Lord child, look at you! You are melting in front of me!". She continued to grab at my scrubs and waved it around- " Look how baggy your clothes are!" She went on and on about how I have a face and a chin now. More people at work at telling me how proud they are of me and how they can tell that I am losing weight. I do feel better about myself- because I am doing something about my desire. I desire to have a healthy and eventful life. Yes- I feel sore, yes- I still want a piece of bread or A bite of pasta, but yes- i realize that I got myself to this stage in my life and it is going to take and keep up this major change in my life to get back to my goal.

Someone's not here!

Someone didn't show up last night.......KARSON! Where's Karson? He said he was going to come and support his team and he's not here! Not on the treadmill, bike, or on the stairs- sigh. Where are you Karson. =) You know I got to poke just a little. It's funny. Ok, so no I didn't post last night - I was so tired last night that I am pretty sure that I fell asleep standing up. My hubby invented a new game last night called "This one". He started tapping different muscle groups on my body and saying " Ok, this one" and so I would flex or tighten up that group to see my new baby muscles. I will say that I can definitely tell my biceps and quads are becoming more defined. Even if they are not the best muscles ever- they were not like that 3 weeks ago so if I want to pat myself on the back when I flex for myself then dang it- I will. Hubby is also really excited for me- I have spent the 3 out 4 years together saying, "When I get in better shape" and I have started several times but always stop when I don't see results after a short while. I know I can push myself a lot harder than what I ever have. Sadly, the food is still going to be a struggle. I love food- I can't apologize for it!

When I dip, you dip, we dip

Can you say bench dips? Sit on a bench-hands right at your side and stretch your feet out in front of you. Slide your booty off the bench and your triceps are used to lower your seat down to the floor and back up. I feel it in my arms! Oww! If anyone else heard this morning- Karson said he was going to come work out with us---We'll be lookin for ya Karson.

BTW- my chicken and veggie pouches from Mrs. Dash recipe website is really yummy. Chicken, peppers, little onion, and yellow squash with Mrs dash in aluminium foil packets. It didn't that that look to prepare and 25 mins to cook in the oven. Easy clean up.

Wow!

I am so tired I can not eat my egg whites- I'm hungry but I am too tired right now ( at this moment) to lift my forearms off the desk. Gimme a few more minutes. Well- no disrespect to our Big Boys but good cop and bad cop really showed today. Matt ( Bad) put us on the stair master for intervals on the hardest level- the hardest level and I HATE STOPWATCHES! I HATE STOPWATCHES they magically go from 15 seconds left to 20 seconds left after 14 have past. I wish I had an hour to rest before going to work in the morning- I would just sit in the steam room and relax my cares away. That would be nice ;>

Multiple

Ok, first thing to let everyone know that I am not the best cook. I once messed up spaghetti! It's cooked pasta and jar sauce- who can mess up that? (BTW - this was years ago- I am not eating pasta right now- even though I dream of it). There is a Mrs. Dash recipe website that has some pretty good looking ideas- however there are a lot of them that has stuff in it that we can't have right now but for regular watching calories it looks pretty good.

Second- The girls and I were talking about this over the weekend. April did lead the conversation of what are the rules? We have 7 and the other team has 9. Now it is not about your/our team cheating, disadvantage/advantage, ect. But any 3rd-4th grade should be able to put two and two together when you say "I have a 1 out of 7 chance of getting voted" instead of "1 out of 9 chances" and when it comes down to the final couple- how is it going to be far? When they announce the winner- can they really say it was 100% fair. Well - best of luck to everyone- but you know I got to give an extra cheer for my Food Fighter Females!

Sigh

I have been trying for the past two hours how to "pimp" my blog! if you can't tell - I have not been successful! I don't know how to add more pictures or videos! I want to decorate and I can not- SIGH!

Sunday Again?

It can't be Sunday again....already? Well- the good part is I always get to spend time with my mom on Sunday- and she is going to the womans' show with me. I am excited to see how many people at church notice my changes so far. Bronte - This is for you! smooches!
