Good and Bad

I thought that this morning would be really bad since it sucked this morning! I was first late for my workout- and I couldn't do everything that I wanted because I had to get ready for work. I didn't have enough time to do all my paperwork- that means weekend homework. Then on my way to my first patient- I was driving on I-240 and hydroplaned ( I wasn't doing anything stupid like texting or cell while driving, I wasn't changing the radio or anything) I was just driving and the car started to slide towards the concrete border; I panicked and overcompensated and started sliding sideways across 2-3 lanes of traffic. My mind told me to look out my passenger window and see what kind of car was going to ram me to determine if I would live or not. But I couldn't I just kept my eyes straight forward and braced myself while I tried to pump my brakes and there came a white truck. I ended up heading with my fender to his driver side door. Thank God both of us were ok and little to almost no damage was done- I have no idea how. As I sat there on the side of the highway I thought- (Yeah losing 30lbs would be great since I could have been paraplegic or dead) Not to be over dramatic- the guy told me that he was glad that I collided with him- I would have gone down the embankment for sure and probably flipped my car- scary. I got a ticket- not fair- I can't control the ponds on the highway- but I am still so thankful that no one was hurt. The evening got better- my workout was great and challenging. April did a full 5 minutes of the stairmaster! Go new happy feet! Niki, of course, continues to kick a*@ as usual! and no I get to spend the weekend with my "Mini Me" - my little cousin whose is 13! She's a sweetie! Got to get ready for the rummage sale tomorrow morning- FAITH LUTHERAN CHURCH- Collierville TN. I got rid of all my 16's shorts and capris and gonna get all new stuff! YEAH

Food!

No- not that I am craving...even though I dream of cheese stuffed crust pizza. But I am talking about healthy food. Master Chief told me that I was not eating enough food and that could have been what hurt me. I am eating my snacks in between to keep my metabolism up but it is my actual meals. I was only eating half of the amount of fish I was supposed to eat but the crazy thing is that I was getting full off of half!!!! That is a weird concept for me- I really wanted to learn proper portions and healthy choices b/c I knew before that I was eating WAY too much of the bad stuff, and now I can't even finish half of the protein that I should be eating.... Having your stomach shrink ROCKS!!!! I am going to Wally WOrld today and buy a food scale- do things right!

BTW- Lunges makes my booty hurt....ouch!

When the BEAR attacks!

Naw- I'm just teasing! I feel great- I came, I sweat and I conquered! I will say that I kinda mad because I have been practicing my kicked out speech for the past 2-3weeks and when it is time to say it---I forgot! So I am going to do it again- the way I wanted to say it!

Karson: So Pooh Bear Stacey- you have been eliminated...How do you feel?ME: I am going to threaten to chug two 2-litter bottles of coke and send myself into a diabetic coma if they don't let me back in the gym! No- I'm good- I know I worked hard and I pushed myself further than I know I could ever push myself being alone so I couldn't be more proud of myself for being a LOSER- plus I'm HOT!

Now here is me doing my confessional farewell speech:
( AHEM) I never thought I would ever make it this far- and I tried and tried and before I knew it - it was getting easier! I started this whole thing with a ROLLER COASTER self-esteem- with some pretty low points, plantar fasciitis, and a set path towards some pretty nasty medical issues in the future. Now I am so excited to say that in 1 month and a half- I went from a size 18-16 to a 12! I have a jaw bone again! My feet don't hurt anymore AT ALL and I feel so great about myself that I want to continue- and I can't wait to see what exciting and pleasant things my NEW future will hold.

Everyone needs to just remember that the hardest thing is to just get started! That hardest thing is to say - "I am not going to wait until Monday- I am going to start RIGHT NOW!"
And the best thing to do is..........BRING BACK THE BEAR!!!

Can't touch this!

I got to buy new scrubs soon! I feel like I am wearing MC Hammer pants. Can't touch this- doo doo dat do Can't this this! HA! Man this is still so crazy- there is no way that I could have told you on Valentine's day that I would be here now. I am pushing myself and pushing myself and I know I can do more! It may sound sappy but it is true....I owe a years of my life to Matt and Antionne- because I was told by the doctor on my annual check up months ago that I had scary cholesterol for my age and with my family history that if I didn't change that I would guaranteed to have diabetes by the time I am 30! Hearing that and your mind's first reaction is to accept it and get used to the idea of insulin shots instead of saying, "WAKE UP IDIOT!" That is not a good mind set to be in and I will never go to that again! In fact I fully plan to get rid of my fat clothes so if for some God awful reason I will have to go out and buy new fat clothes which will make me mad and force me to stay skinny--skinnier.

I have nothing to wear

Ya'll I tried to find something to wear for church today and I could not find anything that wasn't going to fall off me. I thought I had smaller khaki pants in the back of my closet and I thought to wear those. However when I pulled them out- they were 18 or 16's and I tried to find something at target and I got into 12 pants! 12!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES! But i still ain't got no clothes!
