Back... with a Vengeance!

Hello Amunet just wanted to wish ya a wonderful day!
Keep up the good work and don't get discouraged with the
yucky scale it will go down soon they have a mind of thier
own like the computer lol!Tammy
 
Lol... thanks everyone for the support :) You guys are all so amazing!


I did my Cardio Party and about 26mins on the treadmill.
I don't know what's going on but sometimes I'll get this nauseous feeling while exercising. I'm not out of breath or anything like that that would cause me to dry heave or anything... it's just all of a sudden.. I'll get that feeling like I have to vomit.
Anywho... experienced that while I was about 20mins into Cardio Party. I stuck with it though but only did it low impact while I waited for the feeling to go away.


Food wasn't so great today though since we had to go out to eat for bf's aunt's birthday. But it's alright so long as every day this week isn't like today hehe.
 
Hey!! Glad your not giving up due to little setbacks here and there.. we all have em, and the only thing ya can do is get your buns back in gear and pretend it didn't happen :) Hope you have a fantastic week, do lots o' cardio party :D
 
Thanks Jess :)

Well.... I didn't exercise today.
I got absolutely no sleep last night. Not exaggerating at all unfortunatly. I just couldn't get to sleep. TTotM screws with my sleep every once in a while and causes me to not be able to find that comfortable position to sleep in so I'm literally tossing and turning all night.
it's very frustrating.

Anyway... so when my bf left for work and I was still wide awake... I thought it was best if I didn't exercise today.
I'm replacing it with Saturday though. I'm still taking Sunday as a rest day. I can't have a 9 day exercise week :p heh
Anywho... it's another small setback that I'll be making up for :) Hopefully I won't have this sleeping problem any more this week *crosses fingers*
 
Welp... I got a good night's rest last night.. Woohoo! Helps that I didnt get one the night before though heh.
I have Turbo Sculpt (bleh) and Ab Jam to do today and I am gonna try my best to do those squats and lunges! They're such pains in the butt (well more like pain in the legs)... but I'm gonna have to try harder if I ever want these flabby muscles to become nice hard lean ones :D
 
Alrighty... I did about 20mins of Turbo Sculpt, 10mins of ab jam and only 15mins of treadmill.

In the middle of turbo sculpt I had to take a breather and decided that while I was thinking about it to spray the couch with this flea stuff.
It's supposed to be safe to use around your pets so I didn't think anything of it. So I sprayed a little bit and I swear the smell about made me throwup.
It's not a bad smell. It smells like spearmint, but the smell is just SO strong that I couldn't stand to be out there for long huffing and puffing it in while I was exercising.
So I hop on the treadmill and the smell is stuck in my nose and I can't stand it. I've opened up all my windows and turned the attic fan on so hopefully it will go away soon.
*sigh*
Well... now I know better at least. heh.... The workout that I did actually get in though... I think I kicked a little butt. I still can't do many, but I did a little more squats and lunges :)
 
Ok.. I finally figured out what the flea stuff smells like. It does have that minty smell.. BUT the main thing it smells like is this alcohol called Gold Schollger(sp?)... It's the alcohol that's cinammon flavored with specs of gold stuff in it.
I had it a long time ago and it made me absolutely sick and now I can't stand the smell of cinammon and unfortunatly.. that's exactly what this stuff smells like.
I've had the fan in the living room along with every single window open all day long and it still stinks to high heaven in there. I can't breath in deeply while I'm walking by or I gag.
*sigh* I really hope it clears up more by tomorrow when I wake... cause if not.. I might just do treadmill cause I don't think I'd be able to stand out in the living room with that smell doing Turbo Jam.
 
Alrighty... so as you can tell this week.. I've slacked off of exercising for one reason or another.
Welp... the smell in the living room is clearing up.. slowly but surely. So Monday... I'm getting it back into gear. I've had my lazy week... it's time to start kicking some fatty butt again and getting into shape :)
I hope everyone is having a great weekend so far!
 
Hey Amunet,
I'm glad you're pushing yourself to get back into gear. Its funny how things stop us from exercising. I hope you have a great weekend too!!
 
Hey Amunet.

Keep with your decision to get back to things on monday... it's all too easy to find reasons and excuses to get away without doing it!

Are you still late-night snacking? That's a bad habit, I used to do that from time to time. What about something silly like cleaning your teeth? When I've eaten my evening meal and have decided I mustn't have anything more to eat I go clean my teeth ready for bed, and it really works for me. (Aside from it making food taste funny I just dont wanna have to bother doing them again. :D)

Anyway... just my little contribution. Have a good week! :)
 
Well see my problem is that I'm a night owl. I usually go to bed at around 4am.
So Eating dinner at 5pm or 6pm... I have to snack on something at around 10-11pm.
I just have to control the snacking. I tend to overeat during this time and BOY is it hard to get over.
Before I would literally have a full meals worth of food. Like I'd get those cheapo ramens and eat one of those along with 2 eggs in it. Or make myself something big and just totally bad for me.

I think if I can just snack on something good and small I'll be ok :)

Anywho! Thanks for the support!
The smell in the living room is pretty much gone now (only a very very faint smell that smells like vanilla).... so exercising should be picking up again tomorrow :D YAY

20min workout, Ab Jam, and Treadmill here I come! WOOHOO! If I'm feeling up to it, I might try to do more of the floor Ab stuff... since I keep forgetting to get me an exercise ball :p heh

EDIT: Oh yeah! I forgot that I weighed in on Friday.. and was back down to 219.. yay :D
I won't be surprised if I stay the same this week or even go back up to 220. It's ok though.. I just have to stick with it!! WOOT!

I just got done with exercising and WOOT! It felt great! I was going to try doing the floor ab stuff but good grief.. the stuff they do is just insane. Next time I'll pull out my ab roller and try doing crunches that way since doing it on my own isn't working.

Sooo yep... did 20min Workout, 10mins of Ab Jam & 30mins of treadmill :)

Alrighty! I gotta go take a shower cause I BE FUNKAY! :p
 
Gosh I really need to get control of my late night eating!! Grrrr.... I know I'd lose so much more weight quicker if I could just get my eating under control. But it's hard changing your habits when you've been doing it for so long.. ya know?
I have only been doing this seriously for a little over a month though.. so I'm still taking those first baby steps..... it's just going slower than I had hoped heh.
I'll get there though!
 
I just got done exercising and just wanted to post before I went off to take my shower.

I did cardio party and 20mins treadmill today :)

I had to take it easy on some parts of cardio party though. Started off with a bad headache that was making feel nauseous... the queasiness went away but headache took a bit longer.
Head is still feeling a bit achey but it's going away slowly but surely :D
So all in all.. it was a good workout! It started slow but I picked it up once I felt a bit better :D
 
Ya know what I love... Kimchi soup. Why? B/c it fills me up and keeps me filled up all night long. PLus I have TONS of it left over so I can eat it another night as well! WOO!

To get off the subject of losing weight for a bit... I think I just fell in love.......... with a website!
For the longest time I've been looking for rings that my bf could possibly buy me as an engagement ring. BUT I didn't want the traditional diamond.
So looking around at sites that offered a large variety... I'd find a ring that I liked... but the stone was all wrong. OR.. I'd find a ring that I loved.. but I couldn't get it in the right size... etc etc.
But I came upon this one site that offers regular gold and white gold (YAY).. AND with all of their jewelry you can change the gem to whatever is available for the ring!! WOOHOO!!!


This is EXACTLY the kind of site I've been waiting for! Their rings are beautiful and I can actually pick the stone I want in it AND for like 10 dollars more they can actually size it to what I need!! OMG I'm so in heaven right now. For almost 2hrs now I've just been clicking on all the rings I like and looking at them all with the different gems. *sigh* LOVES IT!
This one is my fav so far... I just love that you can choose a different stone for all 3. But I like that the white topaz looks like diamonds.. just cheaper WOO heh



I also love it with the tanzanite on the sides...



Gosh.... I'm gonna be spending all night long on this site! I'm totally showing it to my bf tomorrow and hopefully *crosses fingers* For Xmas I'll be getting one....... and getting a fiance! ;) lol

Why yes... the spicy korean napa cabbage side :D I made some tonight and it was GREAT! If you have any korean restraunts near ya you should try it out. But only if you like regular kimchi! Oh and it will usually have pork in it.. so if you're going veggie or just don't eat pork.. then I wouldn't recommend it heh.

And offtopic.. this message took longer than it should've b/c my cat Stewie is spazzing out and meowing at me wanting me to toss his jingley ball for him to chase.. he's such a weird cat hehe.
 
hey amunet, wanted to tell ya that i luv wonton soup like you luv kimichi soup--and i also take it to work the next day!!

-also, i'm fighting the nightime eating bug too-it's so hard to not go down to the kitchen, especially with stress boggin me down!
