Amanda's Diary

Thanks so much Angela. Well I'm still sick but I'm back at work today. I need the money or I definitely would have stayed home. I have a doctor's appointment for later today though. Hopefully things go well. :)
 
Alrighty I'm BAAAAAAAAAACK! lol! Don't feel any better but hey I'm working on it. After being here for about 45 minutes, I get sent home from work yesterday. I went to the doctor and I have "a virus." Which is good because it could be worse. On the other hand, I feel pretty crappy for it to be just a "virus." Oh and the medicine is absolutely disgusting and it makes me all dizzy and crap. Anyway! I'm glad to get back here. I've gained some weight back since I've been sick. :( Shame on me. Problem is...I'd sit around with nothing to do and eat. I'm NOT going to get back into my bad habits. And of course it wouldn't be as bad but I haven't been able to exercise since last Friday. I'm really missing it too! Well hopefully I'll get well soon and things will be back to normal. SOOO there will be no "weigh-in" tomorrow! I'm not going to kick myself over this stuff. Thanks so much for the support ladies! Take care of yourselves!
 
Hey, Coastergirl! Glad you are doing better. :)
Don't you just love it when you have dragged yourself all the way to the doctor to be sent away with "a virus..."? A few years back I was sure I was dying and I dragged my butt to the doctor and they told me I had "a sore throat." If it hadn't been for the drugs they shot me with and the pills they sent me home with I would have felt like an idiot. An idiot with a sore throat.

Glad you are "on the mend."

Don't stress about the "weigh in." What you are after is a healthier you. And right now, a healthier you is you taking it easy and nurturing yourself.

Glad to see you are Missing exercise! What most people don't know is that it take 21 days to form a habbit. So if you have the strength to stick with it, it will then come natural to you, BUT it takes one day to break that habbit. Which happens to me often. Thats why alot of us are dieting for the 100th time in our lives.
Rest, get better, Just like totallyscrappy said, "Don't stress!" ;)
 
You ladies are so awesome! Thanks so much! I really don't think I would have the strength to keep things up if I didn't have this forum. The past 2 weeks have been extremely trying for me and my health/dieting.

Let's see...first I fell and hurt my wrist, then when I was bowling in a tournament I fell and busted up my knee (thanks to their sticky lane preparation...oooo buttholes! let me tell you how i was about to kick the one guy in his head for a rude remark he made the next day lol), then I'm sick and barely have a voice, and now I'm on my period. :eek: Holy crap, could something else hit me? LOL! I'm sure it could so hey I'll count my blessings. Oh yeah and I have a meeting to go to tomorrow for like 3.5 hours and a presentation to give. Anyone feel like listening to Kermit the Frog speak? Come to my meeting. LOL! :p

Well even though my week was rough, Valentine's Day was still good. I wasn't at my sickest point then so we managed to go out to dinner and a movie. Greg got me the most beautiful roses I think I've ever seen. :) He does the best job picking them out. Hehe!

So ok I'm going to start posting my food again, now that I'm back to work. I'm not promising that I won't go over, I'm still trying to recover and get back on the wagon, but I'm working on it. :)
 
Hey, glad to see you're feeling better. I know how hard it is to stick to good habits when you're not feeling good-I drank nine bottles of gatorade in a five day period when I had the flu a few weeks ago-didn't eat much, but still, nine bottles, no joke.

Just make sure you get back in the game, post your food and exercise! You'll be back on track in no time!

Good luck with your Kermit presentation!
 
Thanks for the support. My presentation...ugh lol it went fine but I'll let you know when I get the grade on it exactly how "fine" it went. My voice held up, for the most part.

Well it's the start of a new week and I'm so glad! I'm going to get back on track now! Now that my health is returning, I'm irritated about my weight gain. That's alright though I'll just work hard to knock it back off again. :p So eating wise my weekend wasn't very good but I didn't expect it to be. SO here I go with a "fresh start."

Breakfast:
Pop Tarts 200

I figured I'd post myself that as a reminder to myself to watch what I'm eating and to post it all tomorrow. :) YAY here I go again!
 
Thanks so much! :) I'm going to the gym today after work and boy I bet my running kills me. LOL! We'll see OH YEAH! I went bowling on Saturday night. I bowled for 3 hours, so that was a considerable calorie loss. I

swear I was so freaking tired after. Oh and my head was about to roll off of my shoulders! Haha! That was as close to exercise as I have come over the past week, and with the way I was feeling at the end...that was plenty! :p
 
Wow,..what a week you had,...my goodness...but you always seem to pull it all togehter.

A new week,..and here we go again!!!!!!!!

YAY for my first day back! I didn't get to go work out...that part is still kind of on the rocks. But I"m back on the dietmobile! :cool: Well, last night Greg ordered pizza. Oh how I love pizza...oh yeah and from my favorite place too! I didn't eat one bite. I was so proud. Now granted, I could have had just a piece or two but at that very moment...that wouldn't have been the case. SOOO I guess my day was pretty successful.

Oh last night I had a lovely dream that someone broke into my apartment while I was sleeping. I tried to pretend I was sleeping while he was in my room but then I felt something around my neck. UGH scary. I open my eyes and he was trying to choke me with a phone cord or something (now keep in mind that I don't even have a phone cord in my apartment lol). I think I woke up after that. It was really weird though ugh. My neck or throat must have been hurting when I was sleeping. I even got up to go make sure the door was locked. Hehe! Oy! :eek:
 
:eek: Wow that was a shocker of a dream would have scared the crap out of me. Well done on not having the pizza :D
 
Thanks Rosered! Oh trust me, it did. Scared the crap outta' me! I called my boyfriend as soon as I woke up. How crazy?!?! The reason I had the dream about the break in was because I guess people had been breaking into cars in my neighborhood. My mom was like "make sure you get everything out of your car because people have been breaking in." So I heard that quite a bit yesterday and it got drilled into my head.
